Our Testimonials

  • "As a music teacher, Mr. Acerra brings not only an exceptional depth of musical knowledge but also a heart fully committed to his students and community. (...) He challenges students to grow, while also giving them the tools and confidence to succeed."

    Scott Carpenter, M.Ed.
    Headmaster of Cherokee Classical Academy

  • "We have been incredibly fortunate to have Mr. Acerra as our seven-year-old son's piano teacher. His depth of musical knowledge and background has inspired our son to appreciate music in his everyday. What stands our most, however, is his ability to connect with our son in a meaningful way. He is endlessly patient, highly instructive, and has a remarkable gift for guiding students through both the technical and expressive elements of music."

    Ariana Baxter
    Parent and Founder of The Meraki School

  • "Mrs. Acerra has been teaching my son the flute and it has been a very beautiful experience. Although it may not be the most common instrument for a young boy to choose, he is learning more than just how to play the flute. Determination, self-motivation and discipline. Even if your child hasn't expressed an interest in learning to play - it is totally worth trying. Mrs. Acerra is wonderfully organized and has a clear plan with each lesson."

    Caitlin Souders
    Mother of a Student

  • "Luke is a highly skilled pianist, cellist and theorist whose musicianship is both intuitive and refined. His ability to connect with students and support their musical growth was evident in every lesson."

    Thomas J. Clark, DME
    Director of Choral Activities
    Central Methodist University

  • "We've also had the opportunity to participate in a group music class with both Mr. and Mrs. Acerra, and the experience was truly special. Their combined energy, expertise and warmth create a magical environment where music is not only taught but deeply felt and celebrated. They foster a genuine appreciation for music's beauty and history, and even as a parent, I found myself more inspired to learn and listen closely."

    Ariana Baxter
    Parent and Founder of The Meraki School

  • "Mr. Acerra has been teaching our daughter and she has blossomed. Her love of music has developed into a passion!"
