I've been taking piano lessons with Steven for seven and a half years now. He's an amazing teacher, and a wonderful person. When I started taking lessons with him, I knew nothing about piano, so we started with the basics of reading music and playing simple songs. Since then, he's transformed me into an advanced pianist, teaching me how to play and sing many popular songs such as "I'm Still Standing" by Elton John, "I Feel the Earth Move" by Carole King, "Piano Man" by Billy Joel, and is now teaching me "Don't Stop Me Now" by Queen. Steven makes every lesson fun and exciting!

As my teacher, Steven is incredibly talented. He has decades of experience and delivers lessons easily and patiently. Highly recommended.

When I started taking lessons with Steven, I already had some previous guitar experience from working on and off with other instructors. What stood out immediately was his ability to meet me where I was skill-wise and help me grow from a beginner player into a much more confident and advanced musician. Steven is not only a talented guitarist and vocalist, but also an excellent teacher who knows how to build a strong foundation and then help students progress incrementally in a way that feels encouraging and achievable. His teaching style is patient, knowledgeable, and motivating. I also supported my younger daughter's wish to begin piano instruction with him. She began as a novice, and now she is a very talented superstar giving significant competition to some of the greats!

I have been doing vocal and piano lessons with Steve. Over the time I have been, not only have I noticed a huge improvement, but friends, family, and strangers have too. When I began to perform again, after taking a long break, I started getting standing ovations! And this was after I started working with him! He goes into every lesson in such a good mood which encourages you and pushes you to do better all the time. He goes above and beyond for all his students, And I highly recommend him!

His resume and experience speaks for itself. Steven is well informed. I had an audition to prepare for in just 3 weeks and I've never felt confident that I would ace it and leave the judges in spades. I learned the importance of vowels, diphthongs, having a steady and heavy tongue that's out of the way for proper air flow and so much more. You want to be good, this guy is for you!

Steven is a fantastic teacher. I have had a couple of music teachers throughout my life so I can say this with confidence, he is the very best. He has a deep understanding of the fundamentals of music theory and proper playing technique, all of which he is able to break down in a way that a beginner student can understand and implement. He also picks amazing pieces at the right skill level to keep me motivated as a student. In a short time, I have made great strides in guitar and even voice. I look forward to lessons every week.

My time in being instructed by Mr. Steve on piano was a great, informative experience. Ever since the first lesson, he is a very good teacher that clearly knows what he is doing. Mr. Bruce taught me at my own pace, taking time to help me work on skills, especially small details that help me perform much better. He is a very skilled instructor, teaching me pieces from not only music books that he provides, but also the valuable skill of learning by ear, a skill few other teachers bother to touch on. Mr. Steve has helped on a number of occasions with songs that I am learning on my own and fit time into our lessons to work on them. He is always willing to let the student work on what they like as well as what he gives out. When I once mentioned my liking for jazz, we soon started an in-depth series of lessons into the genre, teaching me much more than I ever knew prior to it. I’ve never felt pressured by my assignments and pieces to bring home, as Mr. Steve knows everyone goes at their own pace and can take anytime from a few days to a few weeks to learn a song. My time with him was a very fun and informative time that I thoroughly enjoyed.

Steven has incredible talent in all areas of music but the thing I enjoy most is that he is able to inspire as he teaches. My 14 year old son has been taking some piano, mostly guitar and now voice with him for about 2 years. The growth we have witnessed is outstanding. Steven is bringing out the very best in our son - helping him grow in both musical knowledge and self -confidence. Thank you! - The Evans Family

Guitar Steven Bruce, a patient, gifted teacher has supervised my studies on guitar with good humor, wit and flexibility. I would recommend him without hesitation to rookie players young and old.

Piano Mr. Steven Bruce is a dedicated and professional instructor. He not only appreciates his students, but is committed to see them progress as musicians. He let's them know that they can go as far as they want with their music; they just need to do this one thing: do your homework-->practice, practice, practice, he will work on the rest. Both my daughters have been taking lessons with Steven for over 4 yrs and have the confidence to play in front of a group, they are only 8 & 9 yrs old. If you are looking to find a teacher who is committed to you, then Steven is the right instructor.

Voice I take Piano and Vocal lessons from Steven for almost two years now, and have no complaints about him. He pushes me to do better with my work and helps me understand things that I couldn't with past teachers. On piano, he helps with my learning by ear, as well as reading music. On my vocals, he helps me perfect my singing with exercises and keeping an inner glow to my face that most successful singers have. I extremely recommend trying him out!

Guitar / Voice Fantastic, passionate musician and teacher. Vast experience with guitar, voice, and piano. Provides tailored lessons to your experience and skill level. You will see incredible progress and improvement if you follow his instruction and guidance. He is very friendly and kind and wants to see you succeed!

Piano Online My son Aikie said he loves the class! He takes online piano lessons with Mr. Bruce on his tablet.

Voice / Piano Online I took voice and piano lessons in Mr. Bruce’s Coronado studio and also online via Skype. Both experiences were great, and it was really convenient to do the lessons on Skype. Mr. Bruce is an excellent teacher, and he is very patient. I recommend him to anyone who wants to learn to play an instrument or sing!

Piano I have known Steven Bruce for many years. When my girlfriend Gloria said to me "I'd like to take piano lessons," our choice for teacher was easy. From the very start, Steve showed patience, skill, understanding, knowledge and a warm sense of humor. To feel confident in his guidance, consistency and care is very comforting. His empathy in moving Gloria along the early stages was truly appreciated. I knew this would be the case, because our teacher is passionate, creative, unique and also happens to be one of the kindest individuals I've ever known. Please consider Steven, if you happen to be looking for an incredibly complete music teacher.

Voice / Guitar My son has taken guitar and voice lessons with Steven Bruce for the last year. We are pleased with classes and the improvement we've seen in comparison to a previous instructor. Steven is punctual and extremely respectful of the time and money it takes to provide lessons. He can be counted on to be both friendly and professional. He comes prepared for lessons and expects the same of his students. If you are serious about learning and improving your skills, we highly recommend him.

Piano Steven Bruce’s fun and patient teaching style rocks. I see how his bright, fun-loving personality, and knowledge of music for piano makes him top choice as my daughter’s music instructor.

Piano I just wanted to say Thank You and let you know how much I appreciate all the information and help you have given Mikey. You helped him form a great hobby that he loves to do and the family loves to hear. He has come so far since his first lesson and I am happy you kept the Piano lessons interesting for him. Mr. Bruce, thanks again for being a kind, great teacher to him.

Voice Online Steven is wonderful... has taught my daughter Kirby more in 5 classes then she learned in 2 years with another instructor.

Guitar / Voice Online Steven Bruce is a wonderful teacher! He is talented, always enthusiastic, and extremely motivational! Each lesson is designed specifically for our daughter Kelsey's ability and desired genre of music! Kelsey began guitar and vocal lessons in the Coronado studio and is now taking lessons via Skype since our move to Virginia. The lessons are convenient, affordable, and productive. We are excited to be able to still have Mr. Bruce as her guitar and vocal teacher!

Piano Steven is an amazing instructor. He is patient, kind, helpful and very knowledgable regarding his craft. We greatly appreciated his expertise and positive attitude! I would highly recommend Steven for lessons!

Piano Online Working with Steven is a great experience. Even though I have played for years, I cannot read a note. He is able to work with my "ear" that hears the music. I am hearing things that I haven't ever heard before, especially in my left hand. I truly enjoy every online lesson and learn something every time.

Voice Online Explains everything thoroughly, and always keep things fun. The lessons online are great on my cell phone or iPod.

Guitar Online Steven is awesome! He's very patient, encouraging, thorough and most of all he makes it fun. After only 4.5 months of once-weekly he has me jamming to several of my favorite songs! Thanks, Steven!

Piano Online Had a great lesson with Steven. Looking forward to my next one! I take the piano lessons on my tablet, very convenient.

Voice Online Mr. Bruce does a fantastic job! He goes out of his way when needed to ensure a quality lesson. He gives the option to have lessons at his in-home studio or receive them online. That has made it very convenient to keep up the voice lessons as my daughter's school schedule changes. His prices and policies are reasonable too. I've recommended him to several friends already.

Guitar Online It was a great lesson. Steven is an excellent teacher. He is very patient and he is so caring. I really enjoyed meeting him over Skype. I was nervous about online lessons at first, but the lessons online are wonderful!!
