They practice on separate pianos at home but play together on some songs.
Sue is fantastic. What a spitfire! Full of patience and kindness. She is quite knowledgeable. Really good with children. Sue is that favorite teacher we all had in school. My twins love her and are really excited about taking piano lessons! What a hoot!"

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!
