Martha is a hit with her students! She obviously has a special place in her heart for teaching music to others and offers expert instruction yet a fun experience. She always has a smile for you and you don’t even realize she just corrected your grip and took off the finger tapes because it was a conversation, not a command. Martha wants her students to crave making music as she does and gives them the ability to do it well. Many times, students have told us how much they enjoy their time with her.
