Lesson Details

My students are often young beginners. We have a lot of fun navigating through the process of learning to read music and play songs that they enjoy. I am always open to looking for specific pieces or styles that students want to play. Sometimes students just want to learn how to play one complicated piece and that's fine too!

I like both Thompson and Alfred as curriculum and often substitute along the way with sheet music that compliments the book we work from. I work to customize my ... approach for each individual so that they can have the most effective and enjoyable experience possible as they learn to play the piano.

About

Hello! I am a young motivated piano teacher living and working in the Richmond area. I have more than 15 years of experience playing piano.

As someone who has had literally hundreds of piano lessons, I can appreciate what makes a lesson "good". I remember as a kid always feeling bad for my friends who dreaded going to their music lessons. I was lucky to have wonderful teachers and enjoy my experience studying and playing music.

As a teacher, I am committed to making sure my students ... have the same positive experience. I take having a fun seriously with my students whether they are 5 or 50. Playing the piano has way too many benefits to become a chore! I have high expectations for my students and help them reach their goals in a low-key, non-stressful, pleasant environment.
