"As human beings, our job in life is to help people realize how rare and valuable each one of us really is, that each of us has something that no one else has or ever will have something inside that is unique to all time. It's our job to encourage each other to discover that uniqueness and to provide ways of developing its expression." Fred Rogers

What people are saying

  • "Ms. Bella" is my daughter's piano teacher. She is wonderful with children, taking the lesson at their pace, and ensuring they really comprehend it before moving forward. She uses age appropriate tools to make the lesson exciting for the child and encourages the child to perform at their best. She is kind, positive, caring, and supportive. Beyond just the piano and music lesson, she models exemplary behavior focusing on respect, empathy, manners, and kindness. The children are inspired by her positive energy and good humor. She speaks multiple languages which is much appreciated in an international school where children come from different backgrounds and cultures.

  • Ms. Isabella Baer, "Ms. Bella", is our daughter's music teacher, and we feel so lucky to find her in our daughter's musical and life journey. However, Ms. Bella's positive impact on our child is beyond music. In addition to her contagious love of music, her teaching techniques are unique and exemplary. We have seen improvements even from the first lesson and keep seeing progress, not stopping. She also has excellent leadership skills such as empathy, creativity, open communication, leading by example, positivity, conflict resolution, reliability, mentorship, recognizing and developing potential, and giving feedback. We could reconfirm by seeing all these leadership skills during the school recital we have just attended. She is not afraid of constructive feedback after every lesson, but she does it with such grace and motivation our daughter works on it immediately. She spends time improving strengths as well as working on opportunities aggressively. Our daughter's confidence in her musical abilities and presence in front of a big crowd can be tied to Ms. Bella's support, mentorship, teaching, and leadership skills. We wholeheartedly recommend her for any music opportunities.

  • Working with Bella has been a great experience! My son is 5 years old, he is bilingual and learning piano on top of being fluent in both languages seemed challenging, however Miss Bella has made this process truly amazing, she herself speaks 5 languages and understands the process my son goes through. Not only is she highly skilled and she has been a great guide to him, she is also a terrific teacher and has great strategies for working with children. You couldn't be in better hands! Bella is such an educated and talented person, with an impressive resume, she has a beautiful voice, her knowledge is simply outstanding and also wow! she is very funny. I highly recommend it. I will always be grateful to her for bringing music into our lives.

  • I have known Isabella Baer for over 25 years, one of the most promising students of my class at the conservatory in Italy. I admired her great musicality and professionalism not to mention her splendid voice. Today as a conservatory professor in Palermo, Italy, I am grateful because thanks to her advice I managed to be who I am. As soon as possible I would like to invite her to my conservatory to teach a master's degree in vocal chamber music. Thank you again for everything you have done for me. I wish you all the best and an ever more successful career.

Bella is a great musician, a fabulous soprano and a fine person with charismatic personality. Under my conducting, she has been featured in Atlanta several times with concerts of Opera Arias and bel canto arias with a symphony orchestra and chamber ensemble. Her performances have been always outstanding and musically successful. It is my privilege to highly recommend her with no reservations.
