I have studied with Margarida for several years, she is a fantastic double bass player and excellent teacher! Got me through several difficult exams with good marks, and is very reliable and patient. She was accomodating of my variable schedule, and is generally personable and approachable.
I absolutely recommend her as a teacher.View more recommendations
