I strongly recommend Believe in Music Studio. It is a very warm, encouraging and exciting studio! Marina has an... incredible passion for music and teaching and she cannot wait to share this with young people! She works closely with her teachers to ensure they are giving that same experience. The teachers are serious but very encouraging and supportive. They inspire and have real expectations, but they are very aware that a young person's self esteem and love of music need to be fostered and supported not criticized or maligned. Just walking into the studio is a romantic learning experience, with instruments from all over the world decorating the walls of the studio. Ask about any or all, and Marina will tell you a related story and maybe even play a note or two for you! My children love their lessons. I hope you will give them a try!read more

Before I started at Believe in Music Studio in 2006, I was ready to quit the piano. My lessons with my previous teacher... were not working for me, to the point that playing music seemed more like a punishment than a reward. Instead of letting me quit, my mom searched for another piano teacher, and thank goodness I ended up in Marina’s studio. Without exaggeration, Marina completely changed my life. When I started with her at 11 years old, I had already been playing for several years, though I had little to show for it. I barely knew how to read music, let alone sightread. With the perfect mix of compassion and patience, Marina taught me to sightread and worked on my technical skills, practicing etudes and short exercises. (She even gave me a sticker for each one I did well – almost funny what a huge motivator that was for me, but wow, I wish adults got stickers sometimes!) Beyond technical skills, we also played a lot of fun songs together, like the Pink Panther Theme and the Entertainer. Slowly, she began to build my love for sitting down at the piano and dispel my aversion to practicing. The next year, I did my first Royal School of Music exam in grade three. It involved learning scales and scale patterns, sightreading, three performance pieces, and an aural exam. The level of rigor involved in preparing students for this exam is unmatched by conventional recital preparation at most studios, which explains why Marina consistently has the most students in our area taking the exam. Where other teachers may be able to prepare one or two students a year, Marina prepares several times that number, with most of her students not only passing the exam, but also achieving marks of merit and the highest distinction. When I took my fourth grade exam, I passed with the highest mark in three states, thanks to Marina. Even when I left that exam, I felt so happy that I told my dad he’d never have to tell me to practice piano again – Marina successfully made me fall in love with music. With Marina by my side, we prepared for six Royal School exams together (including a very difficult theory exam before grade six) – all the way to the last grade: grade eight. By that time, I had to know each scale, arpeggio, and any scale pattern imaginable. The sightreading was not a line or two, but pages. The prepared pieces were Bach preludes and fugues, Chopin etudes, and lengthy Beethoven pieces. The aural exam had me sight singing bizarre intervals and guessing notes without looking down at the keys. All that to say, the exam really was unbelievably challenging. By that time, I was a senior in high school, focusing on AP exams and college applications – and truthfully, it was only because of Marina’s dedication that I was able to pass that exam at all. Though this emphasis on the exams may seem like the lessons are solely focused on technical skills, nothing could be further from the truth. Marina is an incredibly passionate person, and aims to build that same passion for music in her students. She understands that music is not just meant to be played with proficiency, no – it is to be played with feeling, with deep emotion, a human touch. This is something I struggled with for some time. To help me, Marina would make up background stories for the music we were playing, as if I were playing the soundtrack to a movie. She would encourage me to move my body with the music instead of sitting like a frozen board with moving fingers. She taught me to play with passion. This mix of technical skills and passion for playing is what made music become such an integral part of who I am. Finally! My piano lessons were something to look forward to, a place where I would be greeted by someone who really just wanted to give me the gift of music.In high school, I had quit many of the other demanding activities in my life, so I threw myself into music. Though I played clarinet in wind ensemble and symphonic band, playing piano in jazz band, the rock band, and in the pit orchestra was where I felt most like the best version of myself. I made all my friends through the music groups I was in, and I was able to get into them because of the base that Marina had already given me. Playing in these groups completely shaped my high school experience – which is why I say again, to no uncertain degree, that Marina changed my life. Amid all this, Marina prepared me for piano competitions and other performances. She also set up many charity concerts across the years to help various causes. Her love and passion for music guides her many initiatives from performing concerts of Beatles music in nursing homes, to raising funds for music programs in Houston after Hurricane Harvey sent many schools into debt. Graduating high school and moving away to college was made more difficult by the fact that I had to stop lessons with Marina. Undoubtedly, however, her influence continued there, where I played piano seven musical pit orchestras, even though almost everyone else I played with was from the university conservatory. I even musically directed a show, where the music theory that Marina taught me came into particular good use! Desperate not to stray too far from my roots, I minored in Music as well. Once again, through music, I found a community at college and a new home. I really don’t know what high school and college would have been like if I hadn’t stepped into the Believe in Music studio all those years ago. Now in 2018, I am 24, two years removed from college. I practice piano when I visit my parents, but of course access to a piano is an issue. I’m not nearly as good as I was under Marina’s pedagogy, but my love of music remains. Because of her teaching, I’m able to sit down at a piano, look at some sheet music, and play my heart out. It might not always sound great, but it’s still a lot of fun. Who knows – when the time comes, maybe my lessons will start again. And if you think I’m crazy for writing this much about a piano teacher, then you haven’t met Marina!read more
