Mr. Krenzischek is a very devoted and patient music instructor. Three of my children and I have been students for up to 9 1/2 years and still going. The school emphasizes developing a keen understanding of the basics of music no matter which instrument is being learned. Columbia School of Music has the most diverse student body of any school I have ever been acquainted with in Howard County. That is saying a lot as all three of my children attend Ellicott City and Columbia Schools!
Mr. Krenzischek and his staff always go the extra mile to help ensure that their students learn and understand their instrument and work hard to excel at it. I can not recommend the school enough. If you or your children truly wish to enjoy music and become proficient at an instrument then Columbia School of Music is the place for you.

Thank you for expanding our daughter's music education beyond just playing notes. She is growing in many ways right now. Children are like flowers. Our daughter's flower must just be opening very slowly. We appreciate your gardening skills!

You were by far my best teacher and I only wish that you could have moved to Grand Cayman. Think about it. Lying on the beach every day and teaching me for an hour each week.
I am positive that your school is doing well; your students are blessed to have you.

Our family has been blessed by your instruction and the Columbia School of Music. Although I realize that Caleb has wonderful talent, I know that it was through your guidance and love of what you do that has helped him to further excel. We will surely miss you and our weekly meetings.
We will definitely keep in touch and please let us know when you are in Hawaii! Thanks again for everything!
Les and Rebecca Prasad
Parents of Caleb
Mr. Kurt Krenzischek has been teaching our four-year-old son Brandon piano for the past 4 months. When we first brought Brandon to Mr. Krenzischek we were not sure if Mr. Krenzischek would be able to adapt his teaching skills in a way that would reach Brandon. We were pleasantly surprised! Mr. Krenzischek was not only able to grasp Brandon's full attention, but more importantly, Brandon was having fun. Mr. Krenzischek has displayed incredible patience and at each lesson he is able to adjust his teaching to match Brandon's learning pace. While conducting a structured lesson, Mr. Krenzischek is able to make the music fun, interesting and challenging to our four-year-old son. Mr. Krenzischek has a gentle, affable personality and has displayed how important it is to him that Brandon not only likes him, but also trusts and respects him. He has made an outstanding effort to build a strong teacher-student relationship. We believe that Mr. Krenzischek amazing ability to adapt his teaching methods to each individual student is the hallmark of his success in teaching our son. Mr. Krenzischek has made music interesting, challenging, rewarding and more importantly, fun for our son. We would highly recommend him as a music instructor to any one of any age.
