I teach from either Faber Piano Adventure books or the Alfred's Basic Piano Library. As students progress, we branch out to pieces that interest them as well as continue to challenge their ability to play to the level they desire. I can adapt duration of lesson times for each student, depending on their age and attention level. Piano technique, theory and performance music is given to enhance their learning. Students are encouraged to branch out and discover music genres that they are drawn to. Read More
