Piano Lessons in Hogansville. Amazing Teachers.

Introductory lessons with a mix of keyboard time, music theory, music history and appreciation.

I use many different methods to teach note reading, good technique and performance proficiency. I also customize lessons to help individuals reach their goals such as learning to play with a jazz band, play for a church or to play favorite hits. And of course I teach students how to excel in the classics.

Lessons will be devoted to developing a solid technical foundation through exercises and repertoire. Piano students will focus on proper technique, posture, phrasing, legato, sight-reading, aural skills, theory, note reading, and general musicianship.

All students will have the opportunity to perform on studio recitals.

I teach all ages above 7 years old. Students will learn to play with a metronome, to read music, memorize scales, play with proper technique, play patterns by ear, and even write their own songs! Students get to pick from a variety of games to end the lesson with. Adults will add various listening and theory exercises. I hold a spring concert every year!

I have been playing the piano for years and took several years of formal piano training throughout college and have gone on to play the piano in a wide variety of professional situations ranging from the classroom to on stage. I can teach it in a variety of styles and with a variety of techniques.

For beginning piano students, I use Marilyn Lowe's Music Moves for Piano series. If a student already has purchased piano books or has piano books from an older sibling, I would not ask the student to purchase more books until we had used what they already had to its full capacity. For adults and older beginners, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level.
