Laura Casale is great! My daughter begin taking piano lessons from Laura in 2005 and continued until we moved out of the area in 2008. Laura tailors the lessons to each student and will not overwhelm them with more than they can handle. She has tons of patience and makes lessons fun for the kids so they will want to play piano. She is also reasonable priced and I would definitely recommend her if you're currently in the market for a wonderful piano teacher.

Both of my daughters have been taking lessons with Laura for just over a year now. They LOVE going each week because Ms. Laura makes it fun and keeps them focused. We participated in the recital in December as well as the recording sessions that she offers. My grandfather (in Washington) is paying for their lessons and he was thrilled to be able to see them play and have his own CD of their music. The best part... I never have to remind them to practice. They want to learn more to move on to the next fun song. I always enjoy being able to sit in on the lesson and listen to their progress. We have had nothing but a wonderful experience with Ms. Laura!

My daughter Julia has been taking lessons with Ms. Laura for eight years. Ms. Laura is an excellent teacher and my daughter looks forward to her lesson every week. Ms. Laura engages her students in music they are interested in and lets them choose music they like as well as the lesson books they need to learn music. Our entire family (Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles etc.) look forward to the yearly recitals. Julia is now in the high school band (which Ms. Laura also supports) and continues to live for her music.

My son has been taking piano lessons form Laura for 7 years and he just adores her. She is kind, sweet and encouraging. You can't ask more than that. But she does more... listens to kids for their opinion and work with each individual to better their piano skill. I would totally recommend her to anyone who wants to learn music.

My daughter has been taking lessons with Miss Laura for 5 years now and absolutely loves her. The word that comes to mind about Laura is "balanced." She is wonderful with younger students but relates equally as well to the teenagers. She stresses "old-school" fundamentals, but always adds a fun twist. She teaches the classics, but understands that students also want to play the latest songs on the radio. She is artistic and passionate, yet by far the most organized and efficient music teacher we've ever known. Absolutely recommend Laura to anyone considering lessons.

Ms. Laura is a Master at her craft. I have been to her Christmas Recitals & listened to her music. & watched her give piano lessons. I can tell you will not be disappointed with the lessons she gives. Her students love her, she is very professional & relates beautifully with her talented students. Give her a chance, you will be very pleased to find how fast you will learn. - Dorothy S. - San Marcos, CA

"Ms. Laura" has been teaching my younger daughter (age 10) for over a year. The confidence in my daughter's ability to play had led her to have courage to try out for her school Talent Show. Though her piece was less than one minute in length, it was wonderful to see her perform with pride. Since then, my 17 year old daughter has taken up piano with Miss Laura. She had taken lessons early in life, but was discouraged because of the teacher. Though my 17 year old will only have lessons this school year, (college next), her enthusiasm has been restored, thanks to Miss Laura. Miss Laura has the ability to reach into each of her students and bring out their individuality, thus a love for music. To have my daughters love playing the piano alone, or together, is a precious gift. I thank Miss Laura for that gift and I would highly recommend her!

Laura has been instrumental in instilling a love of music in my son who has taken lessons from her for over seven years. Music is now a part of his life and listening to the result of her teaching is one of the great joys of mine. - Lori Y. - San Diego, CA

Laura Casale is an exceptional piano teacher. My son has taken classes for over two years and not one complaint yet. Laura is thorough with her instructions while at the same time cultivating my son's interests to make the experience uniquely his. I highly recommend Laura Casale.

Ms. Laura is a wonderful teacher. My daughter has been taking lessons from her for over 2 years now and she loves going. She is now practicing the piano without a lot of prompting from me. She has come a long way in her ability to play. Miss Laura relates well to her students and gives them pieces to learn that they are interested in as well as the classics. I highly recommend her.

Ms. Laura has been teaching our three children piano lessons for eight years. Our eldest child is now 13 years old. One of the things we like about her teaching style is that she plays duets with the children during each lesson. Our son started lessons with her when he was four years old. At age five he played, "Don't Stop Believing” by Journey at her annual piano recital. We were impressed that he could play this four page piece as a duet with her at such a young age.
Our daughters appreciate the opportunity to advance to playing pieces from The Nutcracker at the recital. After they play the piece she presents each child with a unique Nutcracker on which she has hand painted the year and the name of the song they played on the base. This is a treasured memento. We have seen years of piano progress at our house. Miss Laura is an incredible teacher! She works very well with children, teens and adults.

Laura has been a fantastic piano teacher. My son has been taking lessons for a year now and has made fantastic progression as a total beginner. Laura is always very friendly, and my son greatly enjoys his lesson each week.
