Naperville Music Academy

"If you are serious about music, I highly recommend this school! The teachers are very knowledgeable and professional! Both my daughters and myself took lessons there and learned a great deal! They really listened to us and customized lessons to our needs and abilities. Dr. Sonia, the owner, is a top notch expert in the field who has extensive experience in professional performance and teaching music."

"Naperville Music Academy has been our go-to company for music instruction for about a decade for three of my children. My oldest son started taking group piano lessons many years ago with Dr. Sonia Mihelcic when Naperville Music Academy first opened after we had a not so pleasant experience with another Naperville studio. Not only was Dr. Mihelcic well educated, but she also tailored lessons to the unique needs of my student even in a group setting. As her business has grown, she has painstakingly chosen quality instructors who are also very attentive and who care about their students’ progress. Dr. Mihelcic is very hands-on with an open door policy for parent concerns about individual instructors or their student’s progress. My son, now a freshman in college, loved taking both group and private lessons with different instructors and continues to play the piano today. I believe that his many years at Naperville Music Academy allowed him to present himself as a well-rounded student to prospective colleges. My other two children, a high schooler and a middle schooler, have also enjoyed lessons in violin and piano here. My middle schooler is currently taking private lessons in piano. One of the things that sets this studio apart is that Naperville Music Academy also provides a curriculum that tests students on music theory and performance through the Illinois State Exam. Two of my students have taken these exams and have done well. If anything, exam participation gives parents a quantifiable and objective measure of what their student is learning beyond playing a memorized piece. I believe that this studio offers a quality music education with many options for lessons at a great value. Because of the professionalism and expertise of the staff, I have never had the need to search for any other studio for music lessons. I would not hesitate to recommend Naperville Music Academy."

"The Naperville Music Academy is an excellent place to take voice or musical instruments music lessons. Teachers of Naperville Music Academy, through various music tasks and training, will competently take you from any music skill level up to a level that you desire. Also, student’s age does not matter."

"My daughter took guitar lessons there and she really enjoyed it. The owner is very personable and professional and the guitar teacher was great and very accommodating. I’d recommend this place to anyone who’s looking for music lessons."

"Naperville Music Academy is a great place to take music lessons. The teachers are all personable and dedicated to their students' success. The owner, Dr. Sonja Mihelcic, is knowledgable, professional, and respectful. I took lessons at NMA for many years, and my amazing experience there was the main factor in fostering my immense love for music. NMA offers opportunities for students to compete, perform, and test their skills with exams. Whether you are interested in lessons to simply learn basics in guitar, prepare for a vocal competition, or perform in piano recitals, NMA is the place to go. I highly recommend this place to people of all ages and skill!"
