Piano Lessons Jackson County, MO

Instruments: Piano, Voice

My teaching experience began around the age of 15, when I taught 2 beginner students piano lessons. I then taught throughout high school and my first few years of college in the Chicago area through the Judson Community School of Music. I love to encourage consistent, short practice sessions for beginners and focus on theory and technique, as well as encourage music to be fun. If a student is eager, I encourage them to perform as well, even on the smallest of scales to gain experience and confidence! Read More
