Veronika is a fantastic music teacher. We began lessons when our daughter Chloe was about 5 years old. The most striking quality I observed is just how positive and patient she was with her. She was clear, concise, yet gentle if our daughter was having a rough time. Chloe loved her as her teacher and looked forward to her lessons!

Veronika's piano studio is a excellent place to go if you want lessons from an excellent teacher who is also thoroughly and classically trained! It is rather rare to find such a piano teacher these days who is also an excellent supportive and effective teacher, and right here in Santa Monica!

I was looking for a teacher who could help me realize a dream - to play the piano! I am very happy that I found Veronika. Since I'm an adult student, she knows that I really want to make progress, and she is helping me to accomplish my goal. I know that she loves to teach students of all ages, but since most piano students are young, I feel fortunate that she is also an experienced teacher of adult beginners. She has high standards for accuracy, but also expects my playing to sound musical. I really enjoy my lessons with Veronika. Whether we're playing a duet, a new piece, or the old ones I would otherwise forget, Veronika is able to motivate me to work hard, and have fun with the piano.

I took piano lessons as a little girl and then 50 years later started lessons again with Veronika. I wanted to be able to play a few easy classical pieces for my own enjoyment. It has been a challenging, humbling and thoroughly rewarding experience. While Veronika indeed helps with figuring out the notes and the fingering, the greatest benefit of working with her is her guidance with the interpretation. She has a great ear for how a piece should sound and gently guiding me there. She's honest and encouraging about where I need to improve and also generous with her compliments on a piece well played. Going on three years of lessons with Veronika, I now have a small repertoire of pieces that I can play to my satisfaction and a great sense of accomplishment.

We have been lucky to have Veronika as a piano teacher for our children, ages 7 and 9, for more than a year. She is absolutely passionate about music. Her love for the art is evident in her enthusiastic and energetic teaching techniques. She is patient with the students and encourages them the very best effort. We are tremendously grateful to her for everything she has taught our kids and the joy their music has brought to our family. I can't say enough great things about her! She is a great teacher and a wonderful person. For all her kindness, she is very serious about teaching music.

I am an adult beginner piano player and have had several piano instructors in the past, but, was never quite satisfied with their teaching abilities. Veronika changed all of that. She is patient, understanding, and, most of all, you can tell teaching piano is her life. All of the instructors I have had in the past would give me the impression that teaching piano was simply their 'day job' so they could pay the bills, etc. Veronika is different. She actually cares about her students and will go out of her way to make the lessons both fruitful and advantageous to her students. If you are looking for a piano instructor that loves to teach and is great at doing it, you'll be very happy with Veronika. And, to top it off, she is an amazing piano player as well! :)

Veronika has been my piano teacher for a year. She is very nice and teaches piano very well. She plays pieces for me first and then lets me choose the piece I want to learn. Veronika explains how to play the piece very well. I enjoy playing piano. Elnara Pashazadeh (9 years old), Pacific Palisades

Veronika is very professional and enthusiastic in every class. I had some music background and have been learning in Veronika's studio for about 4 months now. She is very patient and concentrates on details of the music, the sound and also technique. I love her teaching style because she is teaching her students to play like professionals.

Schedule always works out perfect, and the price is very affordable comparing to some other piano lessons and with such a good teaching quality. Love Veronika's piano studio.
