Testimonials
“My son Miles has been taking piano lessons with Mubarak from Artsong Music for the past three years. Miles has a very independent learning style, but Mubarak immediately won him over with lessons tailored to meet his interests and learning needs. Mubarak makes sure lessons are both engaging and fun, so that Miles not only learns the basic theory of music, but also the joy that comes with creating music. He encourages Miles to create new tunes, and develop his music ear so that he can improvise the notes for familiar songs. I would highly recommend Mubarak as a teacher, for both novices playing piano the first time, or aspiring musicians looking to take their playing to a more advanced level.”

“Mubarak came to Carleton University already as a strong pianist, and since then he continues to take his artistry to higher and higher levels. He is a patient and kind person who is constantly learning. He knows the steps necessary to achieve and is willing to generously share what he knows.”

“I am really enjoying my lessons with Mubarak. He is fun, enthusiastic and very encouraging. He quickly understood what I was hoping for from the lessons and is willing and able to work at the level I need. Artsong Music is a fantastic and much needed addition to music resources in our community.”

“Artsong Music truly does cater to all abilities and skill levels. Having experienced the strict rigidity of RCM, I can vouch for the new, fresh, and flexible approach to music lessons. Mubarak is a great teacher who is easily relatable and therefore makes it easy to relate to and understand even advanced music concepts. He teaches in a fun and practical way, providing not just the tools to be musically successful, but also the motivation and enthusiasm to culture a love of music and learning that will last a lifetime. His excitement and enthusiasm for all things musical is extremely infectious. You won't find another teacher as knowledgeable, patient, caring, friendly, and adaptable as Mubarak.”
