Piano technic, reading music, and learning to express your self on the piano....all of this will be taught in a fun but challenging way

What you'll expect is a mix of sight reading, technique learning and playing, book performance and improvisation by ear for each lesson in the style the student wishes to learn about. If needed, I also write individual exercises tailored to each student and their practice routine.
