Mike makes learning music so much fun. My daughter enjoyed the lessons and enjoyed the pieces he taught her. She is now pretty good at improv as well.
I actually took guitar lessons from Mike too, and I learned so much in a very short time.
When Mike is giving lessons, there's no time wasted. My daughter was always playing something during the lesson.
So Mike's enthusiasm for music is infectious. The kids will enjoy him, the lesson, and the music.
Thanks, Mike!

About David C.
Close Do you wish you would of taken piano lessons when mom and dad offered to pay for them? Are you envious of people that can sit down at a piano and spontaneously entertain? Do you have musical ideas in your head but aren't sure what to do with them? If you think that your time has passed to learn piano, you are wrong, and I'd love the chance to prove it to you. Using my method which incorporates music theory and your musical goals, I guarantee you will be playing songs in no time, creating a base of knowledge that will help you play everything from Bach to the Beatles. Thank you for your consideration, and best of luck on your musical journey.
About Edward L.
Close Good day!
After having taught piano for a few years now, my students have been successful learning the fundamentals of piano playing. The most popular beginner piano books do not actually start as easy as they possibly can. I have a list of songs that the student will start off with that are easier than the typical first songs on a book. After these songs have been learned, the student will play from the Alfred piano books. Eventually, the student will be able to play more advanced songs and pieces like Fur Elise. The parents provide the student with music books and a metronome.
If I seem like a good fit, don't hesitate to press the green button!

About Sam C.
Close Hello! Through my four years at Juilliard I have studied with amazing pianists such as Frank Kimbrough and Dan Nimmer.
Although I majored in jazz trombone, I have been a proficient piano player since I was very young. I use the piano everyday to compose, so I am more than capable of teaching beginning to intermediate players how to properly play. I have a very cohesive lesson plan designed to give any student a well rounded basis for playing the piano. Teaching has always been my biggest passion, I can't wait to work with you!
Contact me for more info!
Happy practicin'!
