Deadly! Madeline is a truly fantastic jazz theory teacher. I'm an advanced piano student who’s trained in classical piano and that's been playing for over 20 years. I came in searching for a tutor that might be able to help me to both learn how to play jazz, and strengthen my understanding of music theory knowledge through the lens of this new genre, as that was never my forte. It’s always been magical to me how jazz musicians could have such fluent command in their understanding of music that they can conjure new ideas via improv on the spot.

I am so glad I ended up going with Madeline. Her experience has been a direct match to what I was looking for. She is able to adapt her teaching to acommodate your level and interests, and she is very knowledgeable and well-versed in her area of expertise. I’ve thrown random curiosities at her so many times, and each time, she met them with immediate understanding, followed by a detailed answer.

Although we don’t play the same instrument, I’ve been able to learn a lot from her. And due to her experiences both playing solo and with an ensemble, her knowledge really extends beyond just that of the trumpet, and she’s really been able to provide me with a holistic view of things.

As a teacher, she is also caring and on top of things. You honestly can’t go wrong learning from her. She has made music theory fun for me, and that’s not something my younger self would’ve ever thought could be possible.
