Piano Lessons in Lillington, NC

Instruments: Piano

My teaching method begins with fundamentals. First, I teach about the piano itself. Second, I teach the notes. Third, I teach tones and steps. Fourth, I teach about major and minor scales. After I lay that foundation for the student I continue with theory and note identification. The student is ready to take off from there. I usually at this point let them select a song to play as well as I assign music. Read More

I am a strict teacher and I try to keep a rhythm with all my students, however, I understand that not everybody has the same skills, time or motivation.

Furthermore, I provide new lessons or exercises regardless they have practiced or no to encourage them to study at least one hour everyday. Read More

In college have had the opportunity to work as a music instructor to a studio with over 20 students on a weekly basis. The students ranged in age from 5 to 70.

My students have done well in auditions and chair tests, and I always encourage both recitals and competitions. Read More
