" The Royal Academy has been my children's music school since they began approximately 10 years ago. They have demonstrated in many ways, an exceptional aptitude in teaching music. Their wonderful program has allowed my children not only to learn how to play a musical instrument, but to also love and appreciate the joy that having such a knowledge could bring. Being a physician, I can recognize and admire when a teacher “connects” with his students, very similar to how a doctor tries to connect with their patient(s). The Royal Academy has an apparent way of communicating with their students which in itself, I feel is a tremendous gift. I applaud them as educator's and a quality school that genuinely cares for each child individually. Throughout the years, the Royal Academy has had a tremendous impact on my boys. They have grown to become fully rounded young men. I am grateful to the Royal Academy and I highly recommend their expertise to anyone. You will certainly not be disappointed! "

"My children and I have attended the Royal Academy for several years. We are initially from Montreal and have been through the Royal Academy program there and have had a great deal of experience with different schools and teachers. My first impression of the Royal Academy was they may be a bit too upscale and classically oriented for my children. This came after reading from their list of teacher credentials, not to mention the "museum-like" appearance of the school. It then then became apparent to me, that much like their obsession with detail, organization and attention, it was obviously reflected in their teaching and care, especially towards how the school was run and the very solid education their students received. We have been long term fans of the school ever since and we have all progressed incredibly since becoming students. I only wish there was something available like the Royal Academy in Florida where we will be moving in June. Please consider opening one there guys...=) My kids will carry on what they have learned from their teachers for the rest of their lives. "Mr. T" and "Li-Ching" and all of our friends at the Royal Academy, we will always remember the beautiful recitals and concerts and most of all, our special friendship. Thank you for giving my children and myself such a great opportunity and growing experience! I recommend you to the world ! "

" Our three daughters have been piano students at Royal Academy for three years now. They have learned and gained the knowledge and confidence with respect to their piano playing. The teachers they have had have been professional and inspiring. We thank Royal Academy for providing our girls with a life long love of music. "

" I have never experienced a school, (music or not) that offers so much to their students. My kids do not just have an "end of the year recital" they have been in over 7 recitals this year alone, not to mention the school requires their teachers give us parents a written student evaluation after every lesson (I love it!). Their facilities are breathtaking and from my observation they use only real piano's, no keyboards or digital piano's. When my children attended a music school in the Westborough area, I was a bit upset that they were just not enthusiastic , and since I wanted them to learn piano, I was a bit upset that they were taught on a keyboard. When I switched them to a another school in the Framingham area, it was the same. I assume it is because digital piano's and keyboards are cheaper to learn on and require no maintenance. In my book, it is called "cutting corners". The main reason I first chose the Royal Academy was because they used real piano's for all their lessons in all their studio's and required teachers to have high credentials. I have since met many other parents and students at the school and have only heard great things about the Royal Academy not to mention the awards they received and community service they offer. Therefore, I would recommend this school (as I have to all my neighbors and friends) time and time again"

" My two boys have attended the Royal academy for almost 7 years now and I could not recommend them enough. The role the Royal Academy played in their over all growth and development, not only as musicians , but also as young adults, in my opinion, is priceless. Being a school teacher myself, I can recognize a good school by how it's organized, the progress of its students, and the quality of education it offers. I have never seen a school (not to mention a music school )work so diligently in encouraging and nurturing the growth and development of its students. I wish the Royal Academy continued success, and only wish more schools like this existed. The Royal Academy could certainly be a model for others to follow

" I have have studied drums at the Royal Academy for over 6 months now. Prior to this I was at another school in Worcester. There really was no comparisons. The Royal Academy know their stuff. There were things I have learned here that I never received anywhere else. My teacher is from the Berklee College of Music and originally from Japan, He is awesome! The hours are great as I work late and the facilities are breathtaking. most of all they are professionals. "

" Working in the Medical field and having a demanding schedule for both myself and wife activities for our children have been difficult. I wanted to write about the Royal Academy as they worked very hard to arrange times for my two children to attend music lessons at the same time. They are very courteous and the hours are very flexible and convenient. The school is very elegant and everyone seems so polite and helpful. My kids love their lessons, especially the beautiful recitals, and most of all, they seem like people who truly care and work hard to ensure students and parents are happy and continually follow their progression. We receive student evaluations from our their teachers after each lesson which I find very helpful. I am not one that usually has the time or patience to write, however these people deserve it. I strongly recommend them to anyone. "
