Our lessons with Dr. Sward have been a very positive experience. The chlldren love to go to violin and piano lessons there and have learned great sight-reading and note-reading skills, as well as how to play music beautifully. She is very patient with them, while making their learning experience fun. She is able to accompany all of her string students on the piano and they have fun recitals twice a year. An added plus for string players is that they have the opportunity to play in a small orchestra ensemble as part of their lesson experience.

Piano and violin lessons are given in a colorful home music studio by Dr. Sward. You can tell she enjoys teaching and she is always interested in and flexible with her student's other activities. She is very encouraging and is able to accompany all of her string students on the piano. The string students also have the opportunity to participate in a small orchestra with her other students, which is very good for them, especially if they don't have orchestra at school.

We have been very happy taking lessons from Miss Rosalie.She is always happy to see us and my children love their lessons. The recitals are fun.

Dr. Sward is a wonderful music teacher. who makes lessons fun. She is patient, encouraging and enthusiastic and has great rapport with the students. Her students give great piano/violin/viola recitals and she is able to accompany all of the students on the piano.

Rosalie is so nice. It was a pleasure working with her.
