“Our two sons have been participating in MacPhail’s online lessons for the past year and a half since our move from the Twin Cities to a small town in southern California. The convenience of sitting in our own music room for every lesson is tremendous, but most importantly, our kids have been able to continue to access a world-class teacher from 3,000 miles away.”
