Learn the language
This is a safe space for students - young and old - to make mistakes, experiment, and discover. Adult piano lessons are inspiring as they achieve new skills, while piano lessons with kids gives them the gift of a skill that will last for their whole life.
We lay a solid foundation in rhythm proficiency, note reading literacy, and keyboard familiarity.
But music is also fun! There is much encouragement to try new things, ask questions, create and explore.
Each student has his or her own strengths and musical style (whether they know it yet or not!) Much of my time out of class is spent selecting repertoire that will encourage students to grow and bloom in their musical journey.
2023-2024
Schedule
Tuition includes six weeks of vacation including one week of vacation to be determined later – 29 total lessons over 35 weeks.
In the case that I need to cancel for any unforeseen reason, my goal will be to make it up by scheduling extra lessons leading up to Spring Recital.
