Ms May is a 10+. She is patient and understanding. She adjusted her teaching style to meet my Granddaughter’s learning style and needs. Ms May went above what is expected. She is our 1st choice in seeking out a vocal instructor.
Ms May taught our 7 year old daughter for a little under a year before we loved. Our daughter said she was really fun and nice. We felt like she challenged her, but in ways that felt achievable and light. We had a very good experience and when we moved, Ms May even helped provide some resources to find another instructor. She was always ready to help.
Ms. May is a very talented piano teacher. She is especially great with my six year old. She is very patient, kind, and encouraging for young beginners.
Absolutely fantastic. This is a woman who is deducted to her craft. She will only improve your skills. May is the best vocal instructor I have ever had.
Greta to work with! Learned a lot about different styles of music and learned new techniques.
I’m an older student and May made playing the piano fun and if I didn’t understand something she was able to explain it so I could
May is very knowledgeable and works great with our schedule. She works with my daughter and also prepares her for upcoming events. She has gained more confidence in herself after taking lessons with May.
She was a very consistent teacher and was able to guide students with zero music experience. She builds confidence and educates her students in everything they do.
She demonstrates exceptional professionalism and instills the same values in her students. A great mentor and teacher, she leads by example and consistently strives for perfection
Ms.Our three children began piano lessons with Ms. May when they were five years old, continuing for over a decade. Throughout this extensive period, Ms. May consistently demonstrated exceptional professionalism and patience with all of them. Beyond teaching piano, she skillfully encouraged our children to draw connections between music and other subjects like math, as well as develop valuable life skills. We wholeheartedly recommend Ms. May as a piano instructor.
She’s really great with pushing me to be better each session and really making sure the basics were down so I could build from that. She shared a lot of important information on chords and the triads and in the lessons we were able to drill those things, but I could also practice at home and understand what the notes meant.
Ms. LeRoy loves what she does and it shows in every aspect of her work.
She enjoys working with beginners as well seasoned musicians.
Ms LeRoy is patient and professionalMiss Le Roy is a wonderful teacher and she’s very patient with the students. She has a lot of experience teaching piano and vocal students. My child really enjoyed working with her and got so much better at singing and playing piano.
Mrs. May has helped me so much with expanding my learning of music and she has helped me have confidence and overall growth with singing I am incredibly grateful for the opportunity to have her be my vocal coach.
May is so much fun to work with.
I always envy my friends for singing so well during our karaoke session. Because of this insecurity, I would not dare to sing because I am embarrassed of my voice.
I reached out to May because I want to sing to my husband on hi birthday. After a few weeks, I finally got the courage to sing with friends during karaoke, my friends were actually surprised that I picked up the mic and sing beautifully. The compliment felt good. Thanks to May ! The concepts she taught me worked !
I am still working on that piece I wanna sing to my husband. I know that I can do it with May's help.
I highly recommend her to someone who needs a voice overhaul like me lol. She is wonderful.Ms. Leroy is a amazing teacher! I had Ms. Leroy for 7 years. She makes topics easy to understand. Her work flow is very efficient. She makes learning fun and not a chore. If I could go back 7 years just to experience it all over again. I would! Love you Ms. Leroy!
I was fortunate enough to be introduced to May as my choir teacher in high school, however as the years went on she became much more than that.
She passionately mentored, supported, and pushed me and my fellows students to reach our highest potential and demand the very best from ourselves.
During my junior and senior years of high school I was presented with many challenges personally and academically, and being a part of the family & community environment May worked everyday to cultivate, would prove to help me navigate the high school experience and beyond in a positive way.
Through many voice lessons and live performances, my conservative quiet persona was overpowered by the fun I was having learning music, and it’s safe to say this broke me out of my shell and made me have something to look forward to everyday.
May was the main instrument, pun intended, in the development of my love for singing and theatrical arts and I’m lucky to have had an educator such as her with the knowledge of her craft and devotion to her students that she strives to improve on even to this day!
-Nick PaquinI liked how she was always there to help and how she isn’t just a teacher but also someone who you can talk to if you need any help.
Ms. Le Roy really pushes you outside of your comfort zones when it comes to ranges you are comfortable in. All her work is very digestible regardless of age.
I loved working with May. I found her to be very detail-oriented and organized when it comes to teaching music. She always pushed me to do my best and to strive for more. One wonderful thing about May is she has always shown incredible patience when teaching her students, and from experience, I have found her dedication and patience with myself and other students beneficial to our understanding of music theory, rhythms and so much more. She is definitely the type of person you can rely on to get things done.
The amount of time and effort she puts in to teaching the art of music to others. She taught me to be confident in my voice.
She pushes you to be better. She is always looking out for you and she likes to go out of her way to make sure you are being the best that you can be. She is so kind and funny. Very good teacher and person.
I liked how professional she was. She taught me many life skills that I will use in the future. She was very punctual, organized, and meticulous.
I have had phenomenal results working with May. I’ve been able to push my singing voice farther than I could imagine. She’s truly helped me grow as a musician and a performer. I feel like I have developed a large and versatile repertoire
Very strong teacher in terms of making sure we understood our music and knew what we were looking at when it came to the music and a very strong at making sure we knew our music and pitches at all times
It cannot be overstated just how wonderful May Le Roy is. She has taken her choirs all over the world with her tireless work ethic. Her passion for teaching and her dedication to her students has earned them incredible achievements.
May holds herself and her students of all ages and skill to the highest standards. Through hard work, compassion, and love, she helps her students to grow as singers and musicians.

May loves music, she loves her students, and she loves to teach - and it shows!Mrs. LeRoy really pushed me above and beyond. I went to her as a beginner still playing simple lullabies but she made me learn Fur Elise and I was able to progress drastically because I was set at higher expectations! Very great teacher and I wouldn’t have had such a passion for music if it weren’t for her.
She more than a teacher, she was a second mom at school. School or outside of school related things she was always there to help and educate. She was the main reason why I wanted to go to school. Best teacher I had without a doubt.
She is very determined , cares about what she does , and won’t stop til she gets the exact outcome she wants
Mrs.Le Roy is very very wise and smart, so she knows everything. Her dedication to music shows when teaching, as she strives for more than perfection when she taught me choir. If you want to learn and understand something she is THE best.
She’s very nice and super supportive. Her lessons are very thorough and she’s really good at helping with technique and overall sound. Great teacher!!!
Ms. May has so much passion and knowledge of music. My daughter not only learned how to read and study the theory of music under her education with May, she learned how to appreciate and support it. She gave her many opportunities to perform and enhance what Ms. May had taught her. As a musician and supporter of the arts I highly recommend Ms. May for anyone who is looking for an educator to teach their children music.
I’ve had the opportunity to be in choir for 7 years with Ms. le roy and what I liked about having her as my teacher was that she always pushed me out of my shell to do more with my singing career, she has taught me so much about music and she’s the only person I can thank for that. Ms. le roy is a very well known role model to me and others who’ve had her in the past. Ms. Le roy always encouraged all of her students to invite people into the Choir community. I’ve had the chance to travel the world with Ms. Le roy and have so many great memories by being in choir because of her.
Mrs. Leroy always made me feel heard, and always pushed me to my full potential. I have learned a lot from her as my former choir teacher. She by far is the best music instructor I have ever had. She has inspired me in so many ways. She is the reason I am still singing today. So I think my experience with her has been incredible and I wouldn’t doubt she would be an incredible private lesson teacher.
Mrs. Leroy was my choir director for 7 years and she taught me so many different things in those years. From music theory to life lessons that I still hold to this day, she has made a huge impact in my life. She is patient and wants to help everyone learn and enjoy music. She pushes and holds all her students to a high expectation that she knows we can achieve even if we don’t think so. I don’t think I would have fallen in love with music if it weren’t for Mr. Leroy teaching me all these years.
My daughter has recently transitioned from in person to Zoom lessons with Ms May. The accountability of sending daily practices has really helped improve her piano skills.
May is a wonderful collaborator, an outstanding professional musician, highly skilled as a teacher, friendly, organized and adept at handling any situation. I highly recommend May as a pianist, music teacher, choral director, private piano and vocal instructor and musical collaborator, without reservation.
May is an impactful professional. I highly recommend to all those that may cross paths. I have only ever had excellent experiences with May.
I've known May for about 10+ years now. She's an amazing student director with multiple first place wins behind her. I've learned not only music but multiple life lessons from her. If it wasn't for her class I wouldn't have had the confidence to pursue my passions.
Thank you so much for everything you've taught me. Once again I wouldn't have made it this far if it wasn't for you!I enjoyed the amount of care she gives her students. She always dedicated herself to making sure the students understood their full potential and helped them achieve more than they can imagine. It’s because of her that I know have a solid career in Opera and Composition.
Mrs. Le Roy believed in me and my singing capabilities more than I did. She not only saw the potential in me, but she knew how to push me in a way where I could reach that potential. She knew my specific needs and tailored her teaching to help me. She cares about her students in a way you can’t really find anywhere else. 110% you need to work with her!!!
I first met Mrs. Le Roy when I was 13 years old at the beginning of my freshman year of high school. I have always been more on the shy side with the performing arts. Working with Mrs. Le Roy, she has taught me and probably hundreds of students over the years to have confidence, and she accomplished that by having confidence in us before we could have it for ourselves. Her passion for the performing arts and her diligence as a teacher became so intoxicating it made all of us as her students want to learn and do more and more. She has become so much more than a faculty member at Cathedral City High School, we became a family. Mrs. Le Roy is kind, compassionate, humble, and an excellent teacher who exercises patience.
I had the pleasure of having Mrs. Le Roy as my choir director for three years in high school. She made music incredibly enjoyable and always pushed me to reach my full potential. Anyone wanting to better their music skills would be lucky to have Mrs. Le Roy as their teacher.
May has extensive knowledge of music. More importantly, she knows how to connect with students at their level and teach music. My son is on the spectrum. May was able to draw him in to the world of music. She made piano lessons fun. I highly recommend May LeRoy as an instructor of piano and all aspects of music.
May is an attentive teacher, where all the details and the system as a whole makes the difference between work and masterful work. She even made sure my understanding and comprehension with what I’m passionate about follows me like a tool on my belt.
We are thrilled to share our experience with May Le Roy, who has been an exceptional piano and vocalist teacher for our daughter. Her expertise as a music specialist is evident in every lesson, reflecting years of experience and a deep passion for teaching.
May Le Roy is incredibly patient and dedicated, always taking the time to ensure our daughter understands and enjoys her music journey. Her commitment to nurturing talent and fostering a love for music is truly inspiring. We deeply trust her with our daughter's musical education, knowing that she is in the hands of someone who genuinely cares about her growth and success.
We highly recommend May Le Roy to anyone seeking a knowledgeable and dedicated music teacher.She cares about every student she's worked with. She is a very hard worker and pushes everyone to be the best they can be.
I’ve known May since I was 13 years old & am so grateful for the wisdom, care & love she has shown me. Regarding music, she’s extremely knowledgable & taught my class how to become better sight readers, she helped us strengthen our voices & encouraged us to learn tough chorale pieces. She gave my class, as well as many others, the opportunities to travel & share our voices & talents in other places. She really pushed us & what we can do, even when we felt we couldn’t. That’s what’s fantastic about her, if she sees potential in you, she’ll push you to reach your full potential. As a solo singer, she was & still is very encouraging & supportive!
What I enjoyed most about working with F. May Le Roy is that she has the kindness and patience to work with individuals such as myself who have a unique way of processing things. Other than the vast knowledge she has about her multiple professions, there's also the wisdom she imparts about life lessons and difficult situations she's been through. F. May Le Roy is the type of person that even when you give up on yourself, she'll be there to encourage you to keep moving forward because one day you'll succeed.
