I have been learning from Mr. Gregory for eight years. He is an excellent violinist and teacher and my skills have improved greatly because of him. He is very thorough and knowledgable. I am very grateful to have the opportunity to learn from him and I recommend him as a teacher for anyone looking to improve their musicianship. I have also been learning cello from Leah for the past six months. She is very patient, understanding, and knowledgable, and I am very pleased with the progress I have made.

I have been studying viola with Mr. Gregory Gelman for 2 years now and he has helped me progress tremendously. Under Mr. Gelman's tuition, I've learned how to properly shift and hold my bow. Even though he mainly teaches violin, Mr. Gelman is proficient at many instruments including piano, viola, cello, and guitar. While I play my pieces, sometimes he plays the piano part on his violin and it's really fun. He's a really good sight reader in all clefs which makes the lessons go really smoothly. Mr. Gelman provides a well rounded musical education including pieces, scales, sight reading, shifting exercises, aural training, and music theory. Plus, he's really inspiring when he occasionally plays a piece he knows for me in class. Not only is Mr. Gelman an excellent teacher, but he is an extremely talented violinist himself. I'm really grateful that he's my teacher and couldn't have become the musician I am today without him.

Justin Lazaro has been one of the best teachers that my son, Abhik, has ever worked with. When Abhik had his first couple lessons with him it was like he was learning more about the Saxophone in 30 minutes than he had learned in a year. Justins approach to improvisation is very insightful and useful. Content that teachers teach in 3 weeks, Justin is able to teach in less than a week. He pushes and motivates his students to reach their full potential. Justin has been an instrumental part of Abhiks acceptance into Jazz Regions, which wouldn’t be possible without his guidance and mentoring. Justins unique and insightful tips of approaching an audition is extremely valuable. In short, Justin Lazaro is a teacher who will push his students to reach their maximum potential and help them embark on a successful musical career.

I highly recommend learning at the Music Academy of Metuchen if you are looking for an exceptional teacher with years of experience to help you learn an instrument or refine your music skills.I have been Mr. Gelman's student for over 4 years and have improved tremendously. Before taking lessons, I was performing in the last row during middle school orchestra concerts, barely able to play "Jingle Bells". But within a few months of taking lessons with Mr. Gelman, I gained the confidence and skills needed to be promoted to the school's chamber orchestra. Thanks to Mr. Gelman's extraordinary teaching and caring personality, I have been able to perform at various locations and take the necessary steps to becoming a better musician.

My son has been taking piano lessons at Music Academy Metuchen with his music teacher Ms Leah for almost 2 years, and I am extremely happy at not just the progress that he has made in his music skills but also with the overall professionalism in their approach. Ms Leah has always been extremely helpful and willing to go out of her way to help him when needed. She is an excellent teacher and we would gladly recommend her to anyone who is interested in learning the piano.

Mr. Gregory Gelman is an excellent teacher. My son (10 years old) has been taking violin lessons for a year & has shown tremendous improvement. He is dedicated and fully invested in the progress of his students. He follows-up with his students to ensure they are practicing and challenges/pushes them to deliver their best.

Gregory is a great violin teacher and puts in a lot of effort to get the best out of every student. My son enjoyed 4 fruitful years learning a great deal from individual lessons, recital participation and multiple levels of ABRSM exam preparation and successful completion. I enthusiastically recommend this academy to anyone looking for a teacher in strings or guitar in the Metuchen and surrounding areas.

I started learning violin when I was 9 years old with Mr. Gregory. Mr. Gregory, was very patient with me in the beginning of the learning process. Helping me perfect my intonation and bow-hold. Through these vigorous lessons, Mr. Gregory challenged me to reach my full potential. Now I am 14 years old , and through his teaching I have played in chamber ensembles that had competitive auditioning processes, and honors orchestras. I thank Mr. Gregory for helping me improve my violin journey year by year. He is an amazing teaching and through his secret tips and tricks, you will see a change in your violin. Definitely recommend him for anyone!

This school was an amazing experience to bring my children too. Gregory is one of the best teachers i have worked with. His flexibility and accommodation truly stand out fromother experiences i’ve had. Since I have started bringing my daughter here we have seen a great deal of improvement and technique. The communication we get from him is amazing. Our daughter not only has become a great player but enjoys it even more now. Class has no longer become dreaded but an item to look forward too. we’ve seen her practice more and more without us telling her too and her dedication was purely due to Gregory. If you were to choose an academy to bring your child to, this is the one. Every concern we had in the past was no longer here. Overall I highly recommend and I can assure you, you won’t regret it.

I have been taking classes with Mr. Gregory for over 4 years and the results have been unimaginable. He has made a really great violinist out of me and is a fantastic teacher. His experience and skill as a violinist are the best I have seen and learning from him has been a privilege. I highly recommend to take classes with him if you are looking to further your playing abilities.
