Hear What Students Have to Say

My son is 6 years old and he’s learning a lot with Ms. Marie Votapka, great teacher, very patient and professional. She’s committed to make my son learn and he’s already reading music.
The payment system is easy to use and the Studio has great deals when you buy packages.
We just had the Winter Concert where my son played both a solo and a Christmas song with his teacher.
We feel lucky and grateful with NYC. Violin Studio.

I've really enjoyed taking private and group lessons with Antoinette and Marie. The private lessons really helped me get a firm grasp of the basics, and the group class has been great because I've been able to make music with other people. I've really gotten better at playing in the last few months because of these lessons, and I had a lot of fun! Never felt boring or like work. I just performed for the first time ever in NYC Violin Studio's concert, and I felt very confident in my abilities thanks to the dedication, patience, and kindness of the instructors. I would highly recommend NYC Violin Studio for players of any experience level and age.

Ms. Marie Votapka is a great teacher. I am full time professional and mommy and she is always so accommodating around my schedule. She is engaging, patient and has a real gift for intuitively connecting to the student and knowing which direction to take. She breaks down the music into simple elements so students don't get overwhelmed or frustrated. She is also very warm and always follows up on the progress. I am extremely happy with the classes and intending to continue.
