Thank you for taking the time to look into piano lessons. Whether it's for yourself, a friend, or a child, I'm so happy that you are taking up learning an instrument and I hope that its many benefits enrich and brighten your life. I am an experienced teacher, an active member of the Music Teachers National Association (MTNA), and have taught in a variety of settings from standard private lessons to university pre-college programs to intensive summer initiatives. I welcome any and all levels of pianists with the hope of providing quality music education across the board. Whether you are hoping to go into music professionally or not, I believe that any approach to the keyboard deserves the highest level of teaching on my part. This is why my lessons are not simply 30/45/60 minutes a week but an ongoing partnership where I offer guidance and support as you explore what it is that you want within the wide and wonderful field of music. Whether you need a professional opinion on an instrument, a safe place to express yourself, or a starting point for your artistic digital portfolio, it is my belief that our community can and will help you achieve whatever it is you set out to do.
