Piano Lessons in Wayland, MA

Instruments: Piano Voice Keyboard

I will be the first to admit I don't have a set method for teaching. However that is because I choose different methods based on the student. Every child, adult, teenager, etc learns at a different pace, has a different educational preference and I adjust myself to meet the needs of the student. Some will learn better by ear, others will learn through a traditional study of notes. I prefer my students to work hard but at their own pace and to teach them in a way that's beneficial to them and not myself. Read More

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Organ Synthesizer Keyboard

Once it becomes clear what excites the student the most, I provide the nourishment and structure necessary for fun and progression. I custom tailor our lessons to their wants and needs.

I do a lot of prep work at home and often custom design printouts to supplement any book we will be reading from. Read More
