• Acceptance to Boston University BM in Piano Performance

Mr. Shihor is a wonderful, warm and understanding teacher.

I definitely feel improvements in my playing, especially enhancement in my confidence as a musician.

Before I moved to LA and started my lesson with Mr. Shihor, I was studying in Moscow, where I’ve always had very strict and cold teachers and developed extreme anxiety playing in front of people.

Mr. Shihor was able to generate a very friendly and relaxed atmosphere, where, a little by little, I came out of my shell and now have no problems playing in public!

In addition, Mr. Shihor was very helpful with my college application including pre-screening video recordings and advising regarding schools and teachers.

With Mr. Shihor’s guidance and mentorship, I got accepted to all of the schools I’ve auditioned for!

I’ve also received scholarships covering 75%-80% of the tuition!

I am very grateful that I had an opportunity to study with such a great teacher!
