Making a Difference
Submitted by Mel swavely on Jun 11, 2018
Thank you Dr.Rachel for being such a professional, positive influence in my daughter life. You are certainly overqualified, with such a humble approach. I have certainly enjoyed listening to Sammi fall back in love with violin and music. She is progressing so quickly. We owe it all to you!!
Inspiring Violin Teacher

Dr. Friedman has been an inspiration to my daughter, who played in her youth orchestra and took a summer of wonderful lessons from her. She is an excellent violinist and a generous, kind, and happy person. We wish she still lived here!
