Valery has been with The Music Place since 2001. In addition to working in the office as The Music Place Registrar, she teaches Early Music Awareness, All Arts, and transitional beginning piano.  She and her husband have six children between the two of them, along with 2 dogs and 3 cats! Valery specializes in teaching very young children, and has developed currciulum for our Family classes in which parents and their toddlers enjoy learning  music together. Her vast experience with children has grown from her parenting and church actvities. She has taught younger children at her church for almost 20 years and home-schooled her own children for eight years. Valery also had a day care for two years. In addition to growing up singing in choirs and enjoying all types of music through her school years, Valery was also a competitive ice skater. 
She began teaching music theory to her children as she homeschooled and now really enjoys working with children.  She continues to study music (piano and voice) from her colleagues at The Music Place. In her rare spare time, Valery also enjoys going to amusement parks (her favorite is Disneyland) with her children and scrapbooking.

Actual Customer Testimonials:

"We have recommended to many of our friends. We love the place. It has totally helped our daughter to not only know the notes but to truly have fun with them! We love the teacher(s) and wish them all the very best. - " -- Happy parents

"Our daughter, Melissa, loves her music class, and she looks forward to the recitals. She's made friends and become more confident. We'd recommend the Music Place to anyone. -- Melissa's parents, Kathy & Matt, Los Gatos" .

I tell everyone who will listen about the amazing introduction to music that our daughter is getting with the Music Place. People are always amazed when a 3-year old explains that she played an oboe last week and is going to play a piccolo next week! Most importantly, our daughter can't wait for music class & asks to go every day. -- The Pace Family
