Jelena Radovic has over 20 years expreience in piano instruction to children and adults of all ages and levels. My most important objective is to help students love piano and find it fun and enjoyable to learn. I focus on nurturing creativity, curiosity and proficiency in piano technique while addressing each students' individual needs and aspirations. I believe that good communication is the key to successful teaching and learning. I offer performing opportunities and grade exams (CM and/or ABRSM) for official assessment and advancement. My specialty is classical music, but I do teach pop and some jazz as well. I hold B.A and M.A in Music Education, membership in many professional organizations and am dedicated to student's satisfaction and success.

Lessons are designed for each individual student according to their learning style, aptitude and speed of learning. Most important for me is that the student feels confortable and enjoys lessons, so that learning can be fun. I introduce and develop each concept through selected songs and piano pieces arranged in order from easy to more difficult, and I incorporate music theory, technique and performance skill learning. I teach repertoire from different musical periods and styles, to cover music history from Renaissance and Baroque to Contemporary.
