Real Letters From Real People
Who Wrote About Our Music Courses

(We have a big cardboard box that we keep testimonial letters in -- there are hundreds (or maybe over a thousand now) of letters praising our music video & cassette piano lessons!)

"I wish I was 10 years old and you were my piano teacher.  Guaranteed you'd make me into a Liberace.  20 years ago, I took piano lessons for 3 years.   I've learnt so very much from you in just 3 months...far more than what I learnt in 3 years.  You put things together so well.  I love the way you throw new content at us.  You really are a great teacher.  I'm a doubting Thomas and when I read all those testimonials about how good you were, I thought buddy you'll really have to prove it to me.  Guess what, I'm convinced, you're a FANTASTIC teacher.  Not only do you have the Know How, but you really know how to get your point across...love the sense of humor too."

Lydia - (E-mail June 18th, 2007 - on file)

"When I first received your catalog I thought that your piano lesson courses were expensive. I now have 36 of them and I think they are the best bargain that I have ever bought. I just want to let you know how much I appreciate your superior teaching skills and it is so wonderful to have all of this material at my finger tips. God bless you."

Helen (E-mail Aug. 12, 2000 - on file)

"WOW!!!!!!! I'll bet you heard me all the way to Medford! When you explained why the word 'perfect' is used I shut off the tape and yelled -- I LOVE YOU DUANE SHINN --- I have bought 5 books on learning to play the piano trying to find out why the word 'perfect' was used and not one has ever explained that...as soon as you said the reason, I went thru all the chords and not only did it all work but the perfect 5th of the first chord always comes out as the perfect 4th of the second chord -- HOW EXCITING -- Thanks you, thank you -- this lesson is so full of wonderful stuff!"

We have a big cardboard box, 18' by 12', where we keep these letters and hundreds more like them.

"Studying with Duane has really made a vast change in my overall piano playing skills, and theory behind it.  He has a real knack at getting the concepts across." Vince

"After many piano teachers that I studied with as an adult student, your methods provided much superior instruction and, as a result, a new awareness of accomplishment to me in my pianistic efforts." Bob(CPA)

"I enjoy taking cassette lessons because I don't have to travel to a studio and I don't have to have a lesson prepared every week.  With my schedule I can prepare my lessons around my many other activities.  I also like having a tape because I can play that tape several months later if I want to review a certain song."  Nadine (RN)

"I have found Duane's cassette and video piano lessons to be exceptionally well planned and packed with absolutely essential information for the serious piano student.  They cover it all." Larry (teacher & club pianist)

"I have enjoyed Duane's piano teaching for many years.  I can go at my own pace and I don't have to leave my house for my lesson.  I was going to a college for a class in piano.  It was nice, but now I can stay home, save 60 miles round trip and have lessons on a one to one basis.  Duane is very patient and explains things thoroughly." Alice

"Our library bought 8 of your courses and they just arrived.  I love them -- they are terrific.
They are so terrific I want to order a second copy of two of them." C.W.(Library director)

 "I got your Chord Piano course and I was finally able to learn chords.  For the first time I was able to learn scales then.  The course was so good it "disappeared" and was not returned." Yvonne

"Just a note to inform you how delighted I have been with your piano cassette courses.  You have a very easy teaching style & you truly make the lesson easy to understand & what's more, enjoyable and fun!  Thank you -- where have you been all my life?" Sherry

"I had to let you know how much I appreciate your first cassette course in Chord Piano!  You teach in a fun and simple way.  I never thought I was smart enough to learn music and how to play the piano.  I don't have enough time to practice as often as I would like, but it's nice learning at my own convenience and going at my own pace.  This is something I've always wanted to do.  Thanks a million!" Jayne

"I just played your tape on chords and am fascinated with your playing and your ingenious approach to piano chords and what an expert can do with chords ... and you sound like a nice guy." Ralph

"I just wanted to drop you a note to let you know what I thought of my first order from you.  I ordered "How To Play Chord Piano In Ten Days" -- I thought it was great!  Already, my playing sounds greatly improved." David (doctor)
