“We have known Miss Nadine as owner of Valotta Studios since we started taking lessons in 2015. As the owner we were immediately impressed by her friendliness and professionalism. Every time we come into the studio, to this day, we are greeted by name as old friends, which we have become! Nadine now teaches my daughter flute. She has such a personal touch to her teaching- she took the time to learn how my daughter best learns and tailors each lesson to her learning style, highlighting the music in colors when needed. My daughter has grown as a musician by leaps and bounds since beginning to work with Nadine. Her confidence as a musician soars and she enjoys her lessons each week. She is motivated to work hard for Nadine and it warms my heart so much to hear so much laughter coming out of the lesson room. We are so thankful for Nadine- for her heart for teaching, for her love of her students, for her innovation and creativity in the studio, and for her friendship.“
