Piano Lessons in Marble Hill. Amazing Teachers.

Beginners

My approach to learning piano is simple, to demystify what goes on at the keyboard, as soon as possible. I want to break down the barriers for playing so that they are minimized or made nonexistent. I listen to the concerns of the student and offer advice on what needs work. We will create achievable goals together and play what we want to play, together. My specialties are pop music, jazz piano, and improvisation. Feel free to contact me with availability questions or to see if you/your student would be a good fit.

Let's get you started with piano! Based on what your goals are, we can cover the fundamentals of reading music, get started playing simple songs with chords, scales, and any and everything else you would like to know to make all your piano-playing dreams come true. You'll see fast progress, and we will stay focused on what it is that YOU want to learn.

Elise strives to provide students with the foundation and knowledge to explore every nuance of their own artistic journey. Artists should be nurtured to be educated and well rounded in order to form refined opinions about the crafts they choose to pursue and study. Elise develops, elevates and hones in on the student’s natural ability and talents in order to create a confident individual ready to conquer the endeavors needed to become a successful vocalist, pianist, actor or dancer.

I can build you a solid technical foundation while also the potential to move into any genre that you'd like to learn! With me, you can learn jazz, classical, or pop/rock piano!
