I'm a teacher who has experience with ages 8 to 80 (at least!). Collaborating with people at all levels of development is wonderful!

My background includes diverse styles and genres, collaborations from church music positions and choral accompanying to teaching piano lessons and working with singers and instrumentalists.

For beginning students, I try to figure out what if any familiarity with the instrument or connected genres the student already has and plan to orient lessons around that.

If it seems like it would help I'd move on to the Suzuki method or at least to simple songs and etudes. Read More
