"My daughter took 30 min viola lessons, when we got there on time sometimes have to wait for a few minutes, when she got in to the classroom, teacher was writing some notes for last class. She did not teaching right the way, And finally she is ready to learn, there was only 15 minutes left, the quality is very bad, not just that, teacher ask her to pack it up early every time, so actually it's only 25min (but really teach and play it's only 15min) You can tell the teacher is tired of teaching, lost enthusiasm, insincerity. 4 lessons doesn't really learn anything! After that I changed to a different school, only 2 lessons my daughter already learned a lot. My son also has try out for the piano lesson In this school, The teacher doesn't really teach or let him try at all, the whole time he just talk and talk, teacher tried to play piano a little, you can tell he can't even play very well. Not just that When I was there waiting for my daughter every time, I saw he was teaching others in his classroom, he talk almost 20 min~ not really teaching anything. And when the parents come pick up their kids they don't even know. I feel so bad for some of the students there, especially for some parents to drop their kids off, pay for all the bills and hope, don't even know, their kids didn't really get to learn at all, teachers just let the time go, not perfection. I have to tell the truth, I share our experiences with you."

"We were looking for a Viola to rent for our son’s music class and we did not know where to start. I tried calling one music store but I was sent to a voice mailbox that was not set up. Irvine Academy was next on our list. I spoke to Ryan and he was very helpful from helping me figure out what size he needed, sending me helpful links and walking through the whole process with me online. I appreciated the time he took to make sure I had all the information needed to rent. When we were ready to pick up, we called ahead and Ryan gave us a time to pick up to ensure it was ready to go! When we went to pickup the two people in the office were very kind and the process was was simple. I would highly recommend Irvine Academy for all your musical needs!"

"I bring my son here for drum lessons. The lady that manages the front desk is always so pleasant. My son loves his drum teacher and actually practices now. He performed live in their recital this past May. The recital turned out awesome. I have to say even I was impressed that he (my son) could perform in public! They do a great job and always make me feel welcomed. Highly recommended!"

"My daughter and I go to the piano and guitar lessons in Irvine Academy of Music, we love this place! Teachers are great, very professional and really know their job. My daughter had several years of piano lessons experience at different places, and Irvine Academy is the right place to continue music education. It’s also perfect place to start learning new instrument, I‘ve began playing guitar olny two months ago and I love it. I would recommend Irvine Academy of Music to kids and adults!"

"We definitely love music town and they help my daughter (7 years old) to love to play instrument again. Mr. Randy is so nice and also very knowledgeable, professional. My daughter loves to play Ukulele and Guitar because of his patient teaching and encouragement. And most important, she enjoys music and starts to practice by her own desire now. Very impressed by their fun lessons and we even had a good recital experience after 3 months lessons of Ukulele. Thanks for Randy to help my daughter love music. We strongly recommend this place to all the parents."
