• I teach piano because I love to teach as much as I love music. My studio is welcoming and friendly; classes offer reasonable rates and the opportunity to approach music without fear or intimidation.
• I specialize in beginning classes that emphasize music reading and comprehensive musicianship for a lifetime of enjoyment.
• My group setting offers students fun and effective lessons to help your student become an independent musician for life as well as play piano. My students tend to continue lessons longer and enjoy music in a variety of settings.
• I look forward to meeting you and your child and helping you reach your music goals. Classes start often.
