We feel so fortunate to have found Sedat for our 6-year-old son's piano lessons. After struggling in group classes, Sedat quickly assessed where our son was at and tailored a fun, engaging lesson plan just for him. The piano handbooks and structured approach have made a noticeable difference in just a few weeks. My son enjoys playing the piano as well. Sedat’s patience and personalized attention have truly boosted our son's confidence and progress. Highly recommend!

We recently started lessons with Sedat for two of our children, ages 7 and 12. They both really enjoy working with him and find him to be very friendly. Our 12 year old has been learning for 3 years with other teachers and she said that Sedat has motivated her to learn more and practice more, perhaps because he is challenging her in new ways with different strumming patterns and finger picking. It was hard to leave our previous teacher, but the fact that the kids have adjusted to him so quickly is a testament to his ability to teach in a kind and fun way, and find the balance to push and challenge without frustrating them. We checked several of his references and all were extremely glowing in their review.

This is our second round of lessons with Sedat! Piano was not for our child, but we were happy to learn that Sedat was available to teach guitar when our son expressed an interest. After the first lesson, our child expressed it was “awesome” and “great”. Our son was immediately comfortable working with Sedat and they chatted and played away while the time flew by. I would definitely recommend Sedat as he adapts his teaching style and music genre to keep the student engaged.

A master of both skill and patience! I recently had my third guitar lesson with Sedat. From the very first lesson I could tell that Sedat possesses an exceptional level of guitar playing and teaching knowledge. He is not only a skilled musician but also an effective communicator. I was so impressed by the lessons I had with him that I hired Sedat to teach my 7 year old daughter piano. By the first lesson, she already learned a song!
