Evan Sachs is a wonderfully kind, gentle, extremely knowledgeable piano teacher who teaches very young to
older piano students equally well. My highest recommendation.
Evan gave my son a great background to music. His piano lessons
are not only good musically, but the practice schedule helped prepare my son for the demands of homework, reading and math
skills.
--Peggy Lacayo, City of San Clemente Music Director
Mr. Evan was referred to our family by trusted friends...and
we could not be happier! Evan is a magnificent talented musician, but his true gift is his ability to connect with his
students and pull that musical talent that is "somewhere" in us all. I am truly amazed at his patience, dedication
and ability to develop our daughter's piano skills. He is always challenging her to achieve her goals via a positive and encouraging
manner. We've seen tremendous growth and development in our daughters abilities from day one, " trying to figure out
where and what is middle C", to reading and playing complete beautiful pieces that wows us, grandparents, and friends
alike. Nothing is better than seeing your child develop new skills and gaining confidence in new endeavors... and for that,
a big THANKS to Mr. Evan! Simply stated, I highly recommend Evan to any family that wants a caring wonderful world class
Piano instructor.
Sincerely,
John and Carla Comes
We have
known Mr. Evan Sachs since 1998. Our son Garrett who was in 4th grade...had no prior piano lessons or experience with
piano teachers. Evan worked with him one evening a week and today Garrett (a high school sophomore) is an accomplished
musician with a broad repertoire of classical, jazz and pop pieces. We have enjoyed watching our son perform at many
recitals...and at the Baroque Festival where he won a ribbon performing a challenging piece. We have been so pleased
that we have asked Evan to work with our youngest son Paul...Paul is beginning to show the same encouraging progress that
Garrett showed...

Evan's reward system and
enthusiasm are contagious and makes her feel excited about her piano lessons. We are so happy to have him as our piano teacher.
--Arlene Rhodes, Homemaker
Evan is very patient with my two kids. He has
a sense of humor, and that's what they need. Just because a piano teacher is a professional does not mean he is strict.
--Quynh-Anh Tran, Pharmacist
I think his teaching his superior because he teaches with heart and true concern. He emphasizes music theory and monitors
the progress of the student. He has a genuine love and appreciation for music and what he's doing. My daughter has more pride
in herself because of her accomplishments.
--Linda Raessner, Homemaker
After studying jazz styles with you, just wanted to say thank you for the "keys"
to playing the music I love. With your simple, fun exercises I can feel the growth. Learning has finally become fun.
I'm having a ball!

Mister Evan is a wonderful piano teacher for both my children. We have had many piano
teachers in the past, and he is by far the best. He has so much patience and really makes learning fun. My little
boy sometimes struggles with learning new things and has a very high learning curve. Mister Evan has been so patient with
him. He really has a knack for working with special needs kids. I never have a problem getting them to practice and
he makes piano lessons fun. My children WANT to do well to please Mister Evan. .He is a wonderful motivator....

Evan is a very patient
piano teacher and piano lessons are fun with him. As an adult student, I've needed that. When he plays, I learn from
his example. I appreciate his calming demeanor.--Betty Van Malsen, Accountant, Lake Forest.
Thank you for your patience in teaching Donald how to play the
piano. We love how he is excelling!
Sincerely,
E.E. and Family
Mr. Evan is a fantastic
piano teacher! He has added skill and technique while fueling my daughter's enthusiasm and interest in the piano. He makes
music fun, introducing students at every age and level to an extensive repertoire, from classical to pop. My daughter looks
forward to each lesson with Mr. Evan, and loves the music she practices each week. Thank you Mr. Evan for bringing music to
our home!

Just a quick note to thank
you for all your incredible work with our son Nicholas. Yesterday we found out that Nicholas was chosen to be in the advanced
orchestra at his school. Nicholas is a fifth grader and most everyone who is in advanced orchestra is in 7th or 8th
grade. He was extremely proud to come home and share his accomplishment in being selected. His weekly lessons since
age 7 have been fantastic. The extra time you gave him helped prepare him for the tryout...Thanks Again....Alice and Tim Heinen.

Evan,we would like to take this opportunity to thank
you for all the work you do furthering Ellyse's abilities at the piano. She completely enjoyed the experience of playing "Classical
Gas" with her Dad at the last recital. The music you put together for her to accompany the guitar was truly
amazing. Ellyse will continue to grow in her skills and love for the piano under your instruction.
