★★★★★ "Kristin and Saman are extremely dedicated and passionate music educators. I’m confident that you’d be hard-pressed to find anyone more dedicated to their craft and to providing high quality educational experiences for their students. I have had the honor of working with Kristin in a variety of roles for many years, which included providing support at her student recitals. I was so impressed with the high caliber of musicianship her students had, her warm and supportive nature with students and their commitment to her educational programming. One of the most crucial and often overlooked aspects of a highly successful music educator is having the ability to foster a positive relationship with students, aiding in their commitment and personal development. Kristin goes above and beyond and this is widely apparent in the successes seen in her students through the years."maps.app.goo.gl/nTmMQeRAiYPNxRdq6

He shared a wealth of knowledge in composition in topics such as music notation, improvisation, form and instrumentation. I found the lessons very inspiring and helpful. Organizing the lessons together with Kristin was very easy and professional. I highly recommend studying with Saman and Kristin Samadi!"maps.app.goo.gl/gRZhku2zxRnVUxzC7

★★★★★ "Our sons (6 and 9) have made amazing progress ever since Kristin started organising piano lessons at home for them, with the oldest passing their Grade I recently. They love their teacher and look forward to the lesson every week. The concerts that Kristin organises regularly are a fantastic opportunity for the children to show what they can do and learn from others. We wholeheartedly recommend Kristin to any parent who would like to see their children develop their love and talent for music!"maps.app.goo.gl/RgqEitCmVd3L74Bh8
★★★★★ "My daughter came to Kristin as a more advanced piano student (Grade 6/High school student), having learnt the piano for a number of years with a different teacher. Kristin has been a fabulous and patient teacher combining both pieces needed for passing the grade exam with an expanded repertoire of modern and classical pieces. An approach that has expanded my daughter's love of piano further."maps.app.goo.gl/X5S1mHed7Hx3jfH98
★★★★★ "My son is learning ukulele with Lucas from Conservatoire One, as is first stage toward learning guitar. We started six months ago when my son was five. Lucas is a wonderful and patient teacher, who takes the time to explain concepts in an age appropriate way. He follows up every lesson with videos to support practice throughout the week. My son loves the lessons and really enjoys playing with Lucas,and his development in these few short months has been incredibly impressive. Highly recommend."maps.app.goo.gl/pzdYoWCLRkUzKBYr7
★★★★★ "My two boys used to go to the Brooklyn Music House since they were little kids. Until we've met Kristin and had decided to have her as for the boys long term piano teacher.
Kristin is a very professional piano teacher. She used time very efficiently on lessons and the most important is that my boys really enjoyed every piano lesson with her. It was also very challenge teaching my boys due to their personalities but Kristin had the most patience to come up with different strategies dealing with them! I really appreciated her efforts for all these years.
Kristin is also a very kind person and a mother of two. Her dedication on teaching piano is remarkable.
For those who is looking for a good piano teacher, I highly recommended!"maps.app.goo.gl/H4bXhtnvUXtgfdgj6

She taught me how to read and listen which further enabled my piano skills. I look forward to working with her and listening to her professional advice. She is so talented but more importantly she is a great teacher."maps.app.goo.gl/UhWhFnEdhjDKwC9t5
★★★★★ "Kristin Samadi is by far one of the most personable and knowledgeable piano teachers that I have ever studied with. She is both a gifted musician and a high skilled teacher with endless amounts of enthusiasm. I started playing piano at a much later age than most. With Kristin's encouragement and much practice, I made musical leaps that I never thought I could. I am so grateful to work with Kristin. I treasure our lessons and beyond her incredible teaching skills, she is also a wonderful person with a genuine love for teaching and playing music. I really can't say enough good things about her.
THANK YOU!!"maps.app.goo.gl/KFbDDHJTzuciW8yT7

Kristin has a high retention rate, her students love her and stay with her for many years. If you're looking for a piano teacher or need a piano player for a gig, I highly recommend Kristin Samadi!"maps.app.goo.gl/rHiWs2r946sryT6b7
★★★★★ "Saman and Kristin are both amazing musicians and teachers. They bring so much joy, passion, and talent to share with their students, and are great for anyone, whether you are just starting out, or would like to fine tune your skills. I recommend them to anyone!!!! ♡"maps.app.goo.gl/FqZgaZ71Qx6JWMq89
★★★★★ "What drew me to Kristin was that piano playing to her is more than a mechanical process; it's deeply intellectual. I realized early on that her passion for the art meant she breathed and lived piano every day. And she is the rare professional who can play the piano like a virtuoso and be an excellent teacher at the same time.
Mastering an instrument is not "just a matter of practice" as one instructor used to rattle on to me. There are methods of tackling pieces, and Kristin knew how to articulate and impart this knowledge to me. She inspired and motivated me to perform at recitals even though I suffered from stage fright.
It was always a dream of mine to play the piano, and playing Rachmaninoff's Vocalise at one recital was definitely a highpoint.
My two children also had wonderful experiences with Kristin. And their continued love of classical music is a tribute to Kristin's caring, thoughtful approach with her students. I cannot recommend her enough!!!"maps.app.goo.gl/ViG4ovVoenMawYAT7
★★★★★ "Kristin is the best piano teacher we've ever had. She's not only a talented pianist, but also a very caring teacher. She makes sure that we understands her completely, and explains it again thoroughly if we don't . With her help, we were able to play the songs we wanted, not just beautifully, but also skillfully."maps.app.goo.gl/1LA5Z1whR3yEUSVQ9
★★★★★ "Our 10 year old has been receiving virtual piano lessons from Kristin, and I could not recommend her more highly. She is dedicated and serious in her instruction, but also so friendly and encouraging. She is very professional and easy to work with in terms of scheduling. Our son is progressing rapidly. Kristin knows how to find the right level of “challenge” to keep him engaged and working hard. He is a beginning piano player, but I can already see and hear his skill developing. I would recommend Kristin to anyone seeking high quality instruction!"maps.app.goo.gl/8GtAdRxvq5x6rUoi8
★★★★★ "Most importantly my son loves his lessons and really enjoys playing the piano. Kristin has taught him from the beginning and he loves music theory and is becoming a good piano player. Kristin is very patient with my son and is able to assess when he needs a challenge or needs to move on. The whole family loved the concert that Conservatoire One held last July and my son enjoyed showing off his piano skills."maps.app.goo.gl/vXGF2MN7zLR7gyY8A
★★★★★ "Our son has been with Kristin for over a year now and we have seen great leaps of success in his piano skills.

Would highly recommend her for any family who is wishing to start their child on the piano!"maps.app.goo.gl/UHLyJ9fJMT6RXELSA
★★★★★ "I've really enjoyed my piano lessons with Saman as an adult beginner learner. He is always very patient and encouraging, making the learning process very enjoyable. Under his guidance, I've also learned a lot about music theory that was somewhat hard for me to pick up previously. I’d recommend Conservatoire One for anyone seeking a skilled piano teacher!"maps.app.goo.gl/kcJQxdbgrndagrV78

★★★★★ "It has been a joy to watch the development of my wife’s piano playing under the tutelage of Kristin. Kristin is unique in that she is a superbly talented concert pianist who concurrently exhibits enormous patience and precise communication skills while instructing her students. She also has the ability to provide positive constructive comments that motivate improvement without being too critical. While observing multiple student recitals over the years, it is clear that this ability has enabled her to successfully instruct a wide range of students from young to old and novices to highly skilled. I would highly recommend Kristin to anyone who is seeking a professional and exceptionally gifted piano instructor."maps.app.goo.gl/PBuUoMzhHYiuUchM6
★★★★★ "Kristin is not only a dedicated and enthusiastic piano teacher, she is also an accomplished pianist. She taught piano to both my children. It was a pleasure to watch their progress with weekly lessons. I would highly recommend Kristin as a teacher and accompanist."maps.app.goo.gl/5vnDywFyWF3xPM3VA
★★★★★ "Kristin is such an accomplished musician and wonderful piano teacher! Our son started taking classes after 8 years studying piano with different teachers and improved so much with Kristin's help. She has all the knowledge and expertise you expect from a music instructor, along with the right personality to connect with teenage students. She is patient, but straightforward and able to involve our son at the same time.
We have also been so impressed by her other students, at the last two recitals she hosted at the Steinway showroom in Manhattan. Besides giving our 15 year old the opportunity to perform in a professional music Hall on a wonderful piano, our family was able to enjoy a concert of first class musicians (he was part of her advanced students), without the usual costs involved with this kind of events.
I extremely recommend Kristin from every point of view, including her flexibility in accommodating change of schedule. We know from one previous recital that she can teach also adults and children of any age."maps.app.goo.gl/geXyRo1Y7ougxzx77
★★★★★ "Kristin is a wonderful, top-notch piano teacher and an accomplished pianist. She inspires kids through her own achievements as a sophisticated musician. She is endlessly patient with kids and knows how to help them understand music, not just play it. My daughter says "I love the way she encourages me to work really hard on my piano and that's why I am so good at it." On top of being a teacher, Kristin and her husband organize recitals where kids can showcase their accomplishments. My daughter played a recital at Steinway Hall, an event and a place that left a lasting impression on her."maps.app.goo.gl/tVYXtMUjSfcm4fnj8
★★★★★ "Kristin is such a great instructor who I really appreciate. Her teaching style and the way she challenges my child while knowing when to support is incredible!
We have been using her services since 2013 with a brief hiatus and we knew we would only return to her due to her expertise. Students who are able have the opportunities to write and perform their own music! What a way to inspire other students to be creative!!! At our annual recitals, I have seen more advanced students perform very difficult and intricate classical pieces...so she will be a great teacher for a beginner as well as to the more advanced students. Our last two recitals at Steinway in the city were amazing!!!
She is also a great performer and Students will have many opportunities to see her performing.
Be on time (although she is very flexible) and make sure that your child practices then leave it to Kristen! You will not be disappointed!"maps.app.goo.gl/HNz3tnRN8R88zWh1A
★★★★★ "Kristin is one of my favorite people on the planet. I first witnessed her extraordinary piano skills when she accompanied the all country woman’s choir a few years ago in Nassau County. Our relationship started soon after when she came highly recommended and I began hiring her to accompany my high school choirs which I’ve been directing for 22 years. Through these years I have used many accompanists. There are none better than Kristin. She is incredibly prepared, organized, eager to please and adaptable. She is a BEYOND gifted musician. As I’ve often told her, I don’t know how her fingers do what they do with touch, feel and dynamics. It feels like there is magic in them that makes a note seem to breathe and have life. Although I haven’t seen her teach privately, I HAVE seen the way she is with my son and with her young children. She has the patience of an angel and the intuition and wisdom of a goddess when dealing with children. I can’t imagine a better choice than Kristin if you are looking for a pianist or piano teacher. When you meet her, you’ll see why!"maps.app.goo.gl/chv7qrrnZVURVX4Z9
★★★★★ "My son started piano classes with Saman during pandemic and all online but that still didn’t affect my son’s progress and increased interest to classes. All because his teacher listened to him and encouraged him to play pieces he had interest in. I really appreciate that approach as that’s the way my son stayed motivated to continue piano classes. Dealing with both Saman and Kristin is a pleasure, very professional and nice people. Can’t wait to listen to new pieces my son is learning right now!! Highly recommend🙂"maps.app.goo.gl/ZFD9MWBMeALTQ3xQ6
★★★★★ "There are teachers and master teachers, Kristin Baron Samadi is a master teacher. She has the innate ability to bring out the best in every student and encourage them to surpass themselves.
My daughter was privileged to study with her for 7 years. Mozart, Debussy, and the Vince Guaraldi shared valuable play time for my daughter at Salon performances, recitals at Steinway and Sons, and my living room.
Kristen is professional, caring, and gentle with the ability to meet each student where they are."maps.app.goo.gl/M7nCpMiEG74mmrKt5
★★★★★ "Our child has been taking piano lessons with Saman via Skype over the last year and the experience has been terrific. He is a kind, patient and flexible teacher and our child has improved enormously, going from utter novice to playing pieces of great complexity with real sensitivity and nuance."maps.app.goo.gl/o9ubRjMHviEt9LDJ8
★★★★★ "What an amazingly talented musician! I had asked Kristin to record a song for my walk down the aisle at my wedding... and she did not disappoint! She played it beyond beautifully and I feel so lucky to have this unique and personal recording to treasure always. I tear up every time I hear it."maps.app.goo.gl/nDBzqBcx58sHQyCp9
