Miss Ashely is an extremely patient teacher- great for younger students who are just learning to sit still and pay attention to detail.

Sarah Heaton
All four of my children have taken lessons with Ashley Smith. She’s so patient and innovative. I love how she finds ways for each individual child to connect with music and develop a love of the piano.
She’s also involved with the piano teacher’s community in the Greater Philadelphia area, giving her students more access to performing in front of others and developing a repertoire. I would highly recommend lessons with this skilled teacher.

Ashley has been great! My 5-year-old started piano lessons with her just a couple of months ago, and he already looks forward to every lesson. He really enjoys both the individual and group sessions. Ashley is incredibly patient, encouraging, and flexible. What I appreciate most is how she connects with the kids, listens to them, and makes them feel comfortable while learning. You can tell she genuinely cares about each child and wants them to enjoy music. We’re so happy we found her and would definitely recommend her!

We love our lessons with Ashley! She is extremely kind, patient, and encouraging with her students. She is full of praise which really creates a safe environment to explore the piano. We have seen tremendous growth in our child in less than a year, but most importantly, she has planted a strong love of music in our child’s heart. -Janessa W.
