Soong Piano Studio

I highly recommend Ms. Maria for anyone who loves piano (or who has ever wanted to play). Ms. Maria has been teaching both my daughters (ages 10 and 7) since they were both six and five, respectively. She is that special kind of teacher that can find the nugget that inspires her students. When by older daughter was board with playing the simple beginning tunes and wanted to try classical, Ms. Maria found simple classical material she could play. Ms. Maria is patient, but always inspires her students to do their very best and to try new things. I couldn’t be more happy with the piano instruction my daughters are getting.

Maria Soong has been teaching my daughter piano over the past 4 years. There is nothing negative my wife and I can say about her methods. She is very positive and encouraging, my daughter has learn so much from her. Maria is a very valuable teacher, she is aware of a variety of approaches to teaching piano. Although certainly perhaps the most important, she enjoys children and brings wonderful excitement to their music experience. My daughter will soon go to high school, and by that time, she will be ready for a good music school.

Ms. Soong is a great piano teacher. She teaches both my daughter (7yrs) and myself (lets just says 30’s) and has the right balance of pushing and motivating enough to keep us challenged and engaged.

Maria Soong has trained two of our sons on piano over the last seven years. Prior to that we had them take piano instruction from 3 – 4 other instructors in the area.
Maria’s world-​class piano instruction and teaching methods, coupled with her amazingly positive attitude with each child has been well worth it. Lisa and I could not be more pleased with the results. Our oldest is now a member of the SFJazz High School All-​Star band, and our youngest has performed in local theater productions and even had roles in operas with the San Francisco Opera!
While making learning to play the piano fun for any age student, Maria also helps build a solid, broad music theory foundation. Maria’s piano instruction is the best we’ve experienced on the mid-​peninsula.
We are pleased and grateful that our sons have had a such a great experience taking piano lessons from ‘Ms. Maria’!
