What to expect in my Keyboard and Piano Lessons

Beginner - Intermediate

An introduction to piano music. Exercises and scales, studies, and then working on a larger piece each week. I match the pieces up with the student's level as well as personal interest in the type of music. You can take this as little or as far as you would like, but I believe that to improve, you need to practice on your own during the week when I'm not there. However, even if you are busy and don't have as much time to practice, you should still come to your lesson and any time we do spend together can help you improve. That said, I believe in practice, dedication, and working towards your goals, but also in having FUN and ENJOYING what you do! You will get out of of it what you put into it, and I also love to share my passion. Hopefully you get enjoyment out of the experience! I can't wait to meet you! :-)
