Piano lessons are an excellent way to engage all parts of your brain while having fun. My lessons include: note reading, technique, music theory, ear training, and musicianship. Although I can teach a variety of genres, my specialty is in classical music.

I have been playing classical piano since 1960 and started with ten years of private classical instruction. I have taught classical piano full time since 1998, including music theory, proper hand and finger technique and methods to enhance ear training and ease of playing classical compositions.

Learning to read music and play your favorite songs, understand technique, scales, etc

I have been teaching piano professionally for 16 years. I have experience teaching all ages, as young as 3 years old. In your lessons you will learn all of the skills, techniques, and theory required to become a great piano player in any genre!

Currently pursuing my second masters degree in opera coaching at UT Austin. Received my first masters degree at the Peabody Conservatory, majoring in Vocal Accompanying with a Bachelor's of Music in classical Piano Performance. Experienced teacher of 10 years, specializing in beginner/intermediate level. All ages are welcome! I will specialize each lesson to each student's needs and will build a strong foundation of note reading, theory and sight-reading! I have access to studios at UT Austin and am usually very flexible with my time. With Covid I am currently offering virtual lessons, hopefully picking up in person in 2021. Let's get started!

Classical Piano normally leads to other styles of piano playing, which I encourage. However, if you want to focus only on classical piano technique, I can take you up to early advanced/late intermediate studies (Bach, Beethoven, Chopin, DeBussy, Mozart, etc.). Please see "Piano" in my Subjects list for more information.

I have been teaching this subject for over 20 years. The main curriculum for beginners is Alfred's Basic Piano Library. There are three beginner levels (beginner, late, adult) and one will be selected after the first meeting. For non-beginning students, the course of study will be developed based on past experience, current abilities, and goals. It is not necessary to know how to read music at the first lesson for beginners. However, learning to read is a part of subsequent lessons. Music is not learned "by ear." A certain amount of theory will be a part of every lesson just as technique and repertoire. Students should come to the first lesson prepared to discuss their background & goals and the plan of their course of study.
