Here’s what our students’ parents are saying…

“My son is a 15 year old boy who always loves music, but not confident about himself. Ory is an ingenious teacher, he has not only identified my son’s talent but also boosted his confidence in music and life.

I cannot believe the progress that my son made over the short one year with Ory, it brings tears to my eyes and joy to my heart when my son plays the piano.

Ory has a team of excellent staff who help him train kids in acting, music theory, stage performance, and competition psychology.

We are very fortunate to be in this warm music family and see the kids blossom.”

— Ping Liu (mother)

“My son, 8, has studied piano at the Ory Shihor Institute for almost one year.

Mr. Shihor and Ms. Kim work as a great team and tailor every lesson towards his needs to keep him fully engaged as well as challenged to consistently make progress at his own comfortable pace.

We are so thankful that Mr. Shihor and his wonderful faculty team have done such a great job with my son who found his love for music at an early stage.”

— Jenny Zhang (mother)
