Piano Lessons in San Margherita, OH

Instruments: Piano Voice

My style is very relaxed and fun and I make the lessons very student focused. I do not believe in a 'monkey see monkey do' style where I simply show the student and have them repeat the concept or technique, but rather a discovery learning approach where I provide the needed support for the student to learn and apply the concepts. I also provide incentives such as rewards for practicing a certain number of hours a week. Read More

I have been teaching professionally since graduating from Capital University in 2009, and have had the pleasure of teaching individuals of all ages and interests.

I also like to focus on each students' own musical interests, studying music that they're interested in, as well as what I think is important for everyone to learn. Read More

And getting them to play simple chord progressions and melodies is a good way to get them off and running . Read More

After graduating from WSU, I taught for one year in the public school system, but decided it wasn't for me. I enjoy the 1-1 dynamic of private lessons much more. Read More
