WHAT OUR STUDENTS ARE SAYING ABOUT THEIR LESSONS!:
“Great place for kids to experience music.“
-Keith Cunningham, Williamston, MI 10/19/2024
“It is always a great experience with Okemos Music Academy! My girls absolutely love this program and are always excited every week to come. Ameera loves Adam, and TaMauni absolutely loves Susan. Susan made her experience great. Thanks again to the staff for everything you do!! And the way they are able to work their way up to getting trophies and certificates makes them love it even more because they look forward to that!!!!!
Thanks, Okemos Music Academy, for being great!”
-Adela Rivera, Holt, MI 10/15/2024
“The lessons are going great. Shelby is wonderful with her, having the patience to let her go offline then bring her back to focusing on the lesson. We are very pleased with Alayna’s progress so far. Great job Shelby!”
– John Hayslette, Okemos, MI, 10/12/24
“My son Malcolm has been having an excellent experience at Okemos Music Academy! Mr Jeff has been very patient and good with him as he learns.”
-SarahKate VanAuker, East Lansing, MI 10/2/2024
“Our son has been a student for over 8 years and has grown his skills as a pianist and violinist because of the dedication of his teachers and the flexibilty of the school. We have come to know the owner and employees well. We know that if you want to learn a new skill, master an old one, or just need some scheduled fun time each week, then the Okemos Music Academy is the place for you. 😉”
-Steven Smith, Okemos, MI 9/30/2024
