“Cheryl is a wonderful collaborator; musically intuitive, well prepared, and always attentive to the needs of the performer. Her playing brings confidence and support to every rehearsal and performance.”
John C. Mery, M.M.
Former Program Dean for Arts and Design, Portland Community College
“Cheryl’s teaching style was incredibly interactive and engaging. Rather than expecting her students to conform to a rigid teaching method, she took the time to understand each student and adapt her approach to their individual needs. Cheryl was always patient and encouraging with my daughter, offering positive guidance and support during every lesson.”
David Nakamura
Former Piano Parent
“My son studied piano with Cheryl for several years starting when he was about 7 or 8. She was a wonderful teacher and very patient with my inattentive ADHD kiddo. He's 25 now and still carries his love of music and the foundation Cheryl provided with him to this day.”

What Families & Colleagues Say
“I worked with Cheryl Young as a member of the praise band/choir at Murrayhills Christian Church in Beaverton for close to 20 years. Cheryl was always prepared, professional, diligent in her work and talented. She took her position seriously and that demeanor was reflected in her consistently excellent work, cooperation and leadership. I recommend her highly for any group or organization that might need her skill set.”
