Emma Bartlett Music Studio 215 Grand Avenue, Pacific Grove, CA 93950

"Ms. Emma is an amazing teacher, that exceeds all expectations. She’s very organized with her lessons, at the same time as being incredibly kind, patient, and calming with her students. My daughter loves her. Her passion for music really shines through her work with her students and she puts on a wonderful concert showcasing all of their hard work. I cannot say enough great things about her!"

"Emma is a great teacher. She is professional, knowledgeable, caring, and patient. Last year when my son started to lose interest in the piano, and I was seriously thinking about quitting his lesson, I began to send him to her. Since then, he has improved considerably and got motivated to practice every day and learn more. I was impressed by her detailed instructions and training in theory and sight reading. She also gives her students opportunities to develop their passion and confidence in music by performing in front of an audience at various events. I’m glad to have her as my son’s music teacher."

"Like most parents, we dreamed of all the skills and talents we'd love our kiddo to have by the time he hits adulthood, and piano was high on the list. We signed him up for lessons at a different studio and it was like pulling teeth getting him to perk up at lessons and practice at home. After a brief break, we found Emma's studio and it was as if we were granted a totally different child. Our kiddo has not only embraced piano lessons and practicing from Day 1 at the Emma Bartlett Music Studio, but he actually has a passion for it! Everyone, grandparents included, is genuinely shocked at the progress he has made in such a short time and the night/day difference in his attitude towards piano. We tend to revere Emma in our household-she certainly has our kiddo under her spell and we are forever grateful. We can't recommend her studio enough for any other family that is looking to kindle excitement and passion in their kiddo when it comes to music lessons!!"

"My daughters have been with Emma Bartlett since we moved to the Monterey Peninsula in 2020. Emma is patient, kind, and sincere. My daughters, who are not as diligent about practicing as a parent might hope, have flourished under Emma's teachings. Emma has a beautiful, methodical, yet simple approach to teaching - I'm sure most children and young adults would flourish with her as my daughters have. In addition to being a wonderful teacher, Emma is a top-shelf musician herself and it is an honor to be a part of her studio."

"Emma has been a wonderful teacher for our daughter, who started lessons more than three years ago. We have been impressed by Emma's musical expertise as well as her patience and ease of connecting with our daughter during lessons. Her instruction is well-rounded, focusing on practical musicianship as well as music theory in a kind and approachable way. We believe that enjoying playing is the best outcome of music lessons, and our daughter truly enjoys making music, thanks in large part to the way Emma teaches!"
