I have known Olga for about 3 years and she regularly performed at the embassy at events. She is a highly qualified professional and it was an honor for me to collaborate.

Olga is an excellent teacher and just a good person. She is a very punctual, attentive, tactful teacher who chooses an individual approach to the student. The cello lessons were very interesting! I have only positive emotions!

My two sons (6 and 8 years old) have been studying piano and music theory with Olga for half a year. She is a conscientious teacher, she was able to interest children. I am happy with the results. We will continue to study with her!
