Music Smart - In Home and Online Piano Lessons

Marius has taught music to our 4 children for almost 10 years. He is a reliable, passionate, expert in his field. He teaches with excellence and expects the same kind of diligence - which I appreciate. Despite different personalities and learning styles in our children, he managed to engage and teach all of them and they are all learning and growing each year.His passion for the arts has translated into all our children exploring various musical instruments which he is happy to advise and or teach. He goes above and beyond in so many areas including recitals, excellent book choices, examination preparation etc. and is always willing to share his wealth of knowledge. I would highly recommend Marius as a music teacher.

My boys really enjoyed working with Marius. He was patient, approachable and very experienced. His lessons were very well structured and entertaining and he exposed students to a variety of repertoire. He helped my younger boy with developmental disabilities read music.

I'm very happy with Music Smart. Marius, the piano teacher is a professional with great and friendlyteaching approach. My son who is 10 years old showed significant improvement since he started with Marius. I would highly recommend Music Smart.

From my daughter: Marius was my guitar and vocal teacher for 8 years, and has taught me so much. He taught me how to play guitar from scratch, and brought me to where I am today when playing. I’m now comfortable playing almost any song. He also helped me improve my singing. Marius has been very kind and patient, and it is clear his passion for music is very strong. He is extremely intelligent with music, and always advises his students the best he can. I strongly recommend Marius for anyone who is looking for a music teacher who goes above and beyond!

Mr. Marius is a great teacher that adapts to your learning style, and explains all concepts in a simple way so that it is easy to grasp. I did piano lessons with him for about 9 years, I feel that I learned a lot, and that there was no better teacher for me than Mr. Marius and the way he taught. Definitely a good teacher for any age. He is patient, yet he is firm, and he has inspired me to pursue a music career!

It's been a great pleasure having Marius as a piano teacher for our daughter for several years. He is very professional and was great with our child nourishing her interest in music and working patiently on developing her technical skills. Marius is very consistent in his teaching methods and focused on quality from the very beginning. His lessons have always been engaging. He is not only teaching the essentials of the curriculum but can also accommodate student's interest in learning a particular popular song. Delivery of music lessons at home was super convenient and worked well with our busy schedules. In addition, we always enjoyed the regular concerts organized by Marius twice a year where our daughter and other students had fun performing and demonstrating their talents and progress. Thank you, Marius, for sharing your passion for music!

Marius taught piano to my three grandboys from primary to Grade 8 RCM. Doesn’t that say everything! In the latter years these boys were in their early teen years. He would arrive on time, well mannered and attired and fun for me to talk politics with. He fit his teaching ability to these boys, each one with distinct personalities and learning styles. Each year, Marius with his brother held a Xmas concert and a Spring concert, opportunities for the boys to showcase their talent. It was enjoyable and professionally presented. As well, Marius introduced the boys to competition at a children’s festival. A fond memory for me is Marius playing Bridge Over Troubled Waters.

Marius has been our music teacher for 12 years. He is very professional and works well with children of all ages. He taught piano and guitar lessons for my daughters and prepared them for the RCM exams. He has a genuine interest in helping music students succeed and communicates well with parents. I would recommend him to parents looking for an experienced, personable music teacher.

Marius was my fourth piano teacher, and I started my lessons with him with a fair bit of musical knowledge and experience. As my classes with him began, I realized how much I had yet to learn in terms of both music theory and piano technique. Marius retaught me the fundamentals, and when we picked up from where I had left off, I was instantly a better musician. In my five years as Marius’ student, my piano skills exponentially improved in a way that I certainly did not expect. Marius helped me achieve my main goal of getting through the Royal Conservatory of Music program with exceptional marks, something I most certainly would not have been able to achieve without his expertise and knowledge to help me out. Marius, thank you so much for everything you did for me throughout our years together. I owe my music training to you, and I am extremely grateful to have had such a caring and wonderful teacher!

Great teacher, great value. Marius provided me with the guidance and structure needed to improve in singing and piano.Very communicative all throughout the our lessons. He will listen to you and help you improve in the areas you want.
