"As the music teacher at Saint Athanasius School, I have observed Maddie teach piano lessons to children of all ages for the past few years. Maddie always has the best interest of the student in mind. Her kind but firm teaching style supports many learning styles. Maddie is an exceptional listener. She is punctual, trustworthy, and is a favorite of the students. Her students are well prepared for their music classes and band rehearsals because of the wealth of knowledge she shares with them." - Elizabeth Delorit
"Madelene has been a wonderful first piano teacher for all three of our children. As our daughter is a four year flute player, it is a major plus that Maddie also teaches flute. Her technique, skills, patience and motivation are remarkable. I have not hesitated to recommend her to others." - Daina and Alnis Cers
"My daughter has been enjoying flute lessons with Madelene for several years. They started working together through my daughter's school music program but when that arrangement changed we lost touch with Madelene. My daughter worked with a couple of other flute teachers but none came up to Madelene's standard. Using our detective skills and social media we tracked Madelene down and asked if she would do private lessons and were delighted when she said yes. Madelene makes the lessons fun and interesting; they are a major highlight of my daughter's week. She connects with students on their level, never making practice feel like a chore and instilling a love for the instrument within the student. My daughter no longer plays in the school orchestra due to other commitments yet she continues to have weekly lessons with Madelene just for the fun of it. I would highly recommend Madelene to any parent looking for a skillful, dedicated, fun loving and 100% trustworthy teacher." - Anne Phelan, Parent
"Rossini's overture to "L'italiana in Algeri" ("The Italian Girl in Algiers") was distinguished by sharp, precise ensemble work, plus some of the sweetest piccolo playing I've ever heard, courtesy of orchestra member Madelene Campos." - The Post and Courier
"As former Principal Flutist of the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra, I have worked with Madelene Campos since 2006, while she has been our first-call substitute player. Maddie has performed as principal flute, second flute, alto flute and piccolo. She is an extremely capable and experienced professional, and a sensitive and caring colleague. Ms. Campos has a lovely, delicate sound and a facile technique. She is not only a talented flutist, but also a gifted pianist, and an extremely intelligent and intuitive musician." - Jeani Foster, Assistant Principal Flute, Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra
"I have had the pleasure of working with Maddie Campos as a substitute musician in the Lyric Opera Orchestra, and i would recommend her without reservation. She is a wonderful player, and a wonderful colleague." - Pete Labella, Personnel Manager, Lyric Opera of Chicago Orchestra
"Thank you for being such an amazing and fun teacher. You've taught me so much and I'm so glad that I've been able to have you teach me for such a long time." - Katherine Phelan, former student
