“Both our kids are with Volo Academy of Music. Our daughter playing piano and our son guitar. What a blessing it is for them to can learn and play at the same time. It is also helping them with their concentration at school work too. They enjoy it so much and love their lessons with Isaac. Thank you for your time and patience to teach them what they love. We can see that you have passion for your work and love doing it. Thank you!!” ~ Bernadette N.~

“As an adult taking voice lessons for the first time, the past year and a half of lessons with Emma has been a great experience. It's a privilege to learn from a highly-skilled voice teacher who challenges me and makes lessons fun and enjoyable. The online lesson format works well and makes it so convenient to fit lessons into my schedule.” ~ Etenia B.~

“Volo Academy of Music has been the perfect school for my 2 sons’ online music lessons. My older son takes piano and my younger son takes guitar. They love their lessons, and I’m happy with their progression. Their instructors both seem to tune in quite well to what my kids are interested in, and take the opportunity to fit in technique and theory applicable to every “fun song” that they’re learning. Very clever way to go about it! Thanks, North Peace Piano!” ~ Sarah R. ~

“I recently took piano lessons with Joshua, and he was beyond a great teacher. I really enjoyed my lessons and look forward to continuing my lessons with Joshua. I highly recommend Volo Academy of Music.” ~ Karen G.

“My 7 year old is thoroughly enjoying online lessons with Volo Academy of Music! I was very skeptical about online piano lessons (especially since this was her first experience with piano and I thought she would do better in person) but with a little bit persuasion, I'm so glad we took the plunge! Our teacher is Cat and she is wonderful with kids and provides us with excellent lesson notes! I can't wait to see our daughter's progress at the end of the year! :)” ~ Courtney L.~

“My daughter is loving lessons with Joshua. She is not wanting to take traditional piano lessons. She wants to choose her own music and learn techniques along the way as they come up. Joshua has custom tailored her lessons so she gets exactly what she wants. This has made the process really fun for her. She loves her lessons! Thank you, VAM!” ~ Tiffany Z.

“We have all 3 of our kids in online lessons with Volo Academy of Music. Our teacher is Gary. He is patient, kind, knowledgeable, and meets our kids where they are in each of their musical journeys. They have wonderful progress and have lot’s of fun! We couldn’t be happier.” ~ Tia L.

“My 2 kids and I take online lessons from Volo Academy of Music. I take piano for fun while I’d like my kids to one day take exams. Joshua is wonderful with them, teaching them the fundamentals of music in preparation for this next step while Isaac, my instructor, keeps me challenged and very interested. We are all having a fantastic time, and this is lessons with Volo Academy of Music are a worthwhile investment! We wouldn’t have it any other way!” ~ Jody Y. ~

“Loving the online piano lessons! Great pace + fun hobby to take up :)” ~ Katelynn S.~

“I’m an adult student who’s been taking 1 hour piano lessons throughout the school year with Instructor Isaac. I have been really impressed with his attention to detail in his explanations. He is able to define specific techniques and why they are important before the how. In showing the how, his examples are always clear. It really gives me a great idea of what I am working towards on a specific technique. And he does all this with great enthusiasm. I want to continue over the summer!” ~ Shane P. ~

“My daughter is having a great experience here in online lessons with North Peace Piano (Volo Academy of Music). They’ve been accommodating and easy to deal with. So happy I found this gem. 😄” ~ Alyssa B.

“My daughter had to do online piano for the first time this year. She was nervous about it as online can be awkward and difficult, but her teacher helped her feel comfortable. He is also very knowledgeable and kind. She now enjoys online lessons!” ~ Rebecca R.

“I want to thank Kimberly for her being professional, always given the right solution if it's the hour that comfortable for your child, one on one classes, online classes, or anything that works better for you. Thanks to Duncan for your patience to teach at this early age. My 4-year-old daughter, when she started music lessons, had a hard time focusing and sitting for more than 5 minutes in one place. Now she is more focused and remembers what is being asked of her, I think piano lessons help her a lot and prepared her for the future grade 1.” ~ Michal G.~

“Kim has been teaching Simona since she was 7. She is playing for 4 years now and still loves to play. Even when COVID hit in March she was able to continue her classes online with same quality as in person. Kim was very resourceful and made it fun and came to "visit" our house every week for a change.” ~ Zuzana H.~

“I’ve really been enjoying my piano lessons with North Peace Piano (Volo Academy of Music). The teachers are professional and skilled, and the owner is great. When I start up piano lessons again, I'll be going back to them! Before I started with them, I did tonnes of research about which company to use for my lessons, and this was the best. The lessons take place in a studio with an upright piano (in-person), but I’ve switched to online lessons because of the convenience and efficacy, and they are normally scheduled in the afternoons, evenings and weekends. From time to time they have recitals. They are very flexible about helping you to make up missed lessons. When I started, I couldn't read notes, but after a few lessons it all started to make sense. They move as quickly as you are able to learn, and the time is very well spent.” ~ Jean N.~

Our girls have been with North Peace Piano (Volo Academy of Music) for one year. Kim brings energy and enjoyment to each lesson and pushes the kids to do the song correctly, yet placing some of themselves in each song.  By making the song more than a song, you will not become bored with the piece and you will actually enjoy playing the piece to people outside of the family.  From a parent's point of view and as someone who listens to the lessons, I like how Kim say “don’t forget your claws” or “the weight is from the arms, not your wrist”.   Proper technique is something more than said, it is enforced.  Kim is a nice role model for a music teacher, always welcoming with a smile and sends the kids off in a smile.  Like I say to the kids when we are jamming, “She is taking you to the next level”.   ~ Warren H.~

My 7 year old daughter takes piano from North Peace Piano (Volo Academy of Music), and I am so impressed with her progress in just her second year. Her technique, and drive for perfection is inspired by Kim's passion for music. I love sitting and listening to the two of them interact and how encouraging and positive Kim is with her. With Kim as her teacher I see the love of music growing in my child everyday!   ~Shinnel D.~

My kids say Kim is the best piano teacher they've had, and I couldn't agree more. She is friendly, encouraging, and so talented. She ensured the kids were well prepared for their piano exams and they did well. But my favourite part about Kim is that she always has something positive to say about your child's playing each week. One time in particular comes to mind where my son made a mess of his song, and she complimented him on his ability to make it up as he went along vs just starting over. ~ Alison R.~

Kim teaches piano to my 5 Year old son, and she is so wonderful. She has so much talent and patience and my son just loves her. She makes piano lessons fun, and explains concepts in a way that is easy for a child to understand. She pushes my son to excel, but does it in an encouraging manner. I would recommend them to anyone! ~Bonnie C.~

I highly recommend North Peace Piano (Volo Academy of Music) for piano and voice lessons. My daughter has thoroughly enjoyed her lessons and it is simply amazing to see how much progress she has made in just one year. My daughter and I truly appreciate Kimberly's kind, confident and enthusiastic disposition. She has truly captured my daughter's passion for music and given her the confidence to explore it further!!!  ~Tara T.~

My 9 year old daughter, Raluca, takes private piano lessons at Volo Academy of Music and she is enjoying every minute of it. She has a knowledgeable, energetic and a fun teacher who teaches great techniques and at the same time shares her passion for music. She is extremely professional, patient and responsive yet warm in her communication style. Great piano teacher. I highly recommend VAM to any one who has always wanted to learn piano.  ~Corina B.~

Once in a long while, your path is crossed by someone who makes a positive impact on your life. Present that person who influences my life is my Piano Teacher from North Peace Piano (Volo Academy of Music). I am a senior adult of 71 years who got a Christmas present of piano lessons this past year. I found them on Kijiji and set up a lesson schedule with her. My experience has been a positive experience. Since starting lessons this past January, I am well on my way to playing piano. My teacher has helped with my sight-reading, timing, finger positions, and confidence. She is patient, inspiring, and has many ways in helping getting over difficulties and road blocks. She inspired me enough to participate in the Parkland Music Festival this March, which I did well in. I would recommend their piano lessons to anyone of any age.                   ~ Duane S.~

North Peace Piano (Volo Academy of Music) has provided an excellent teacher for our daughter, age 10.  We have noticed significant growth in our daughter's command of technical skills (scales, triads), playing technique (love the "magic O's!"), and her ability to play by ear (including transposition of songs she knows).  At a recent music festival, our daughter was a scholarship winner in her category and was complimented on her technique and attention to performance details.  Most importantly, our daughter loves the time she spends in lessons and looks forward to her lesson each week.  Thank you, North Peace Piano (Volo Academy of Music)!  ~Erin & Trevor I.~

My son, Joshua, is really enjoying lessons! Even though he’s shy, he seems to have connected with his teacher, Cat! He comes home immediately from lessons and wants to show is what he knows on his keyboard! He’s pretty proud that he’s learned 3 songs since beginning!! ~Kailey S.M.~

My son has only been taking lessons with North Peace Piano (Volo Academy of Music) for few months and he has already shown huge improvements in all areas.

Her teacher is is always patient, observant, detailed, kind, creative, and gives thorough explanations and demonstrations so my daughter can really understand piano playing in a simple logical manner. Thank you, VAM. ~Sally T.~

His instructor at Volo Academy of Music is a caring teacher who fosters a love of music and piano in her students. She is a very patient, kind, creative and supportive teacher. She has made learning piano fun and interesting for our son. We look forward to all that he will learn this year.   ~ Reanne P. ~

Music Fun Time is an engaging, interactive class that teaches the children movements, rhythm, and actions through a variety of songs and instruments- both those the children can play themselves, and the ones played by Kim.  The children are singing about colours, animal sounds, emotions, and more, all while having fun and exploring different ways of making music.  The children in my day home range from 18 months to 3 years, and Kim has tailored it to fit with their developmental stage.  We look forward every week to Kim’s visit!  ~Kalena F.~

Sydney seems to have a great time in the videos from music class. When I tell her she has music lessons that day she is so excited to go see Kim. She loves to sing and dance and this is a great way to have it incorporated into her day home experience.  ~ Tiffany R.~

Jessica loves to dance, so naturally, she has loved the music fun time activity at the day home! She comes home and shows me her new dance moves, and it's so cute. It's amazing what they can learn at such a young age, and she has learnt so much already in just a few weeks! Thanks again for taking the time to spend with these girls and giving them this fun activity to do every week. ~Amy H.~

I have my 4 year old daughter seeing Kelaila! Kelaila is so patient, easy going, energetic and just the perfect fit for her! Thank you North Peace Piano for the great match up to our needs 😊 ~ Tamara A.~

Our daughter has been taking a class (Music Fun Time) with North Peace Piano (Volo Academy of Music) for about 6 weeks now and LOVES it. She is learning all sorts of new dance moves and songs.
