Balm, FL Piano Lessons

Experienced piano teacher available for eager students of beginner level! I structure my lessons so students learn what they want to learn, while also building a strong foundation of theory skills.

Basic - intermediate piano of all ages. Method books that I have used with many successful students will be the core of the lessons and student's weekly practice. In addition to piano techniques, a clear philosophy of effective practicing will be taught.

My teaching style is very personable and friendly yet serious about results. Curriculum can be tailored to the student.For piano students I am currently using the Alfred's basic piano library series. Students can expect to progress to the next level within a 3 to 6 month period depending on student’s dedication. Reading, theory, and technique will all improve and grow at the same rate. My philosophy is that instruction should take a learners knowledge of music beyond the instrument.

Theory. Technique. Reading. Proper style. You'll learn it all here!

I've been helping people enjoy music for 26 years.

Having proper technical skills that become second nature and learning to read music will give you confidence.

I tailor lessons to each student's needs, talents and learning styles. And I will try to ensure that you play with ease and in a healthy manner with joy! I don't expect you to become a star (unless you want to) - just have a good time and play the music you want to.

Ill teach notes, chords and how to read music. All the basics anyone needs to learn to play.

It's about having fun right from the start. Let's do that! The more fun you have, the greater the progress : ) Reading music, piano technique, music theory, and improvisation! Yes, if you would like to learn how to develop your own piano style, having fun "putting yourself" into your music, you've got the right guy! You can expect an exceptionally fun and creative way of learning with Dave. In addition to learning basic rudiments like reading, interpretation and technique, you will learn how to approach music from a perspective of understanding. If you are also interested in exploring other genres, including pop and jazz, Dave's extensive improvisation background can certainly help put you in the driver's seat when it comes to playing creatively, which can lead to many avenues for you. If you have taken piano lessons with another teacher in the past but were faced with a lack of motivation and/or boredom, don't let that stop you from giving yourself another chance with Dave. It can be

I've been teaching piano for 7 years. Within the first few lessons, you'll be able to recognize note values and the grand staff and as time goes on you'll be able to play more difficult music. I specialize in classical piano and music theory, typically use John Thompson and Faber books. I love working with students of all ages and experience levels and I can't wait to meet you!

It will be customized piano lessons that focus on different students’ different needs. You decide however YOU would like me to teach. My teaching styles and methods can change based on YOUR needs. Building a great relationship between students and me is my top priority.

I have been playing instruments since I was 5 years old, from Piano, Violin, Saxophone, Flute, Vocals. Since a young age I have loved to be on stage performing for America's Youngest Jazz Band in The International Jazz Festival de Montreal and Texas Jazz Festival. I have taught children saxophone and piano, I enjoy watching my students grow as I help develop their love of music.

I have been teaching professionally for 25 years. I am also the Music Director and organist in Sarasota. I prepare a specific teaching curriculum for each person. We all are different, some start music in their forties, some at 5 years old...The teachers flexibility to oversee what one needs is a key that allows each individual to learn the instrument. My favorite music to teach is classic, contemporary, christian music. Also ragtime music could be great way to boost interest and excitement. I love to share some crossover music ideas with my students,- the music I compose and teach on Yamaha Clavinova is my big hobby. I want my students to reach their musical potential and aspirations while having a wonderful time!
