Verified Student & Parent Reviews

What Parents & Students Say

★★★★★

"Rayson had around six months of clarinet lessons at school before starting lessons in October 2024. Since then, we’ve seen a significant improvement in his playing, confidence, and overall musicianship. Konstantine has helped him build strong foundations and a much clearer understanding of his playing, and the results have been excellent. He was recently selected for a top state band on clarinet."

— Rayson’s Mum (Parent)

★★★★★

"Before starting lessons, my experience with the clarinet was limited to high school and I had only a basic understanding of the instrument. From the first lesson, Konstantine identified my habits and helped rebuild my playing on a stronger foundation. Over time, my confidence increased and I developed a clearer understanding of how to manage tone and consistency while playing. He encourages learning from mistakes and adapts his teaching to each student’s pace."

— August (Adult Student)

★★★★★

"My daughter Claire has been learning the clarinet with Konstantine for around two years. She has progressed from a beginner to playing pieces accurately and confidently, rather than simply getting through songs. He explains technique clearly, including breath control, finger placement, and tone production and is patient and encouraging throughout. Step by step, Claire’s sound and confidence have improved significantly."

— Parent of Claire (Student of 2 Years)
