"Both my children have taken music lessons at BAMA. I have found their teachers to be of the highest caliber musically and, of equal importance, caring and dedicated to the children. The administration is impressive as well, running the school with a professional and nurturing environment. I recommend BAMA to all my friends looking for a music school!"

"I have loved music all of my life. I have always appreciated the profound joy and the quality of healing music brings to life. As an old adult student, I had many concerns about starting piano lessons. I realized my concerns were unnecessary, once I began my lessons at BAMA. The teachers have been truly inspiring. The professional artistry and creativity then bring to music, combined with skill and dedication to teaching music is extraordinary. I feel personally privileged to be able to learn from such highly skilled professional musicians."

"When we brought Carrie to BAMA she instantly fell in love with the teaching style of the BAMA instructor. Both of her instructors in BAMA are very friendly and resourceful to young students like Carrie. They work closely with Carrie on piano skills, as well as music comprehension. She enjoys going to piano class every week and practicing at home every day. BAMA also works closely with parents giving feedbacks and advices. We are thrilled to see the great progress Carrie has made in the past year."

"In the last three years at BAMA, my three young daughters have come a long way. Not only my daughters improved the technical skills in piano, but they have acquired thefundamentals of music and the confidence to perform. I praise mostly the highly qualified and dedicated faculties for teaching with much passion and encouraging the students to truly enjoy music.

"My boys, ages nine and seven, have been taking piano lessons at the Bergen Academy of Music and Art for two semesters. I feel this has been a wonderful experience for my children and my entire family. The quality of their lessons has been outstanding. Both have different abilities and learning styles, and their piano teachers have done a great job of understanding how my children learn and working with their strengths to accelerate their learning. We tried home lessons before going to Bergen Academy, and I have to say that going to the Academy for their lessons works much better for us. Since we have been going to the Academy, my children take their lessons much more seriously. They clearly respond to the professionalism of the directors and teachers at the Academy. My children look forward to their lessons each week, and so do I. It's great to see them improving -- and our whole family enjoys going to the formal recitals.

"BAMA has a great philosophy and method to teach music to young children and provides a parent-friendly environment. During the lessons, including the free trial lesson, our son, Peter, has interacted well with his teacher while being engaged by the violin. The semester-end recital always gives Peter great motivation to show his progress to his family. His teacher is wonderful, inspiring Peter to learn the fundamentals of music in a friendly manner. Overall, we are very happy to be a part of BAMA, and Peter is now excited about the upcoming opportunity to play at Carnegie Hall!

"What can we say about BAMA? We are very pleased and impressed with
Doug and Xioning's professionalism and management of the Academy.
The've put together a faculty team that is highly educated, accomplished and active in their field of expertise. Also important is their hands-on approach which makes everyone feel part of the Academy. They continuously strive to accommodate complex schedules to help parents make it all happen for their children.
We are thrilled to have Dr. Angela Robinson as our piano teacher. Dr.
Ribinson is nothing short of wonderful. As a musician, she is talented and accomplished; and as a teacher, she is skilled, encouraging and compationate. Absolutely lovely. Our daughter Isabel may not always practice willingly, but she always looks forward to her weekly session with Dr. Robinson."
