Piano Lessons Woodford County, KY

Instruments: Piano, Voice, Recorder, Music, Keyboard

I teach music because I appreciate the joy it brings to my own life and want to share that with others. I have a student centered approach to teaching music with research based methods supported by, not only my own experience, but experts in all fields of learning. The same technique, phrase, experience or activity will not work for every student. It's important to me that I find the one that does by getting to know my students, inspiring them, challenging them and helping them discover their musical selves while still preparing them for any musical goal they would like to pursue.

For children who are beginner students, I use the Alfred's Basic Piano Library lesson books. After completion of level 1, I encourage my students to find songs they might enjoy learning outside of their lesson book. For older beginners I create unique lesson plans and assignments, based on those students' musical tastes and preferences, that help them progress at their own pace. Ultimately, I do my best to help my students learn in a fun and exciting way. Read More
