Jamila is the instructor reintroducing me to the piano after almost 25 years hiatus. My early memories of piano were dreadful due to a very strict and angry teacher. My experience with Jamila has been a totally positive experience, with encouragement and praise. Jamila is very animated and super knowledgeable, sometimes more than I think I can handle, but then she somehow makes me surprise myself by bringing out my own talents. I chose to have Jamila teach me in my own home and she arrives on time and messages me when she is on the way as a natural courtesy. I am happy and excited to be restarting my voyage into music and am thankful for a good teacher that has the right tools and attitude to assist me.
