Music Lessons in West Jefferson, OH. It's your time.

Students in Amy’s studio are trained using a multifaceted approach that includes the study of repertoire (classical, folk, jazz, and more), etudes, technical skills, ear training, sight-reading, theory, composition, music history and performance practices. All of these skills lead to the development of well-rounded, versatile musicians!

I am a professional cellist with years of performing and teaching.
I attended the Jacobs School of Music for my undergraduate and masters' degrees and was a graduate teaching assistant. I also received my Stott Pilates Teaching Certification while at IU and incorporate postural alignment into my teaching. I have Suzuki certification and work on a strong technical foundation, which both facilitates performing and frees us up to explore non-traditional techniques and other genres.

Most importantly, I strive to nurture the love and passion for music and cello and I am here to help you achieve your musical goals.

Hello! I have several years of experience teaching piano to high-school and college students, both at an intermediate and advanced level. I began learning piano at age 6, and have played competitively, performed in various classical recitals, performed in a jazz ensemble, and accompanied both choirs and orchestras.

I have plenty of practice material and songs ranging from beginner to advanced. I have the mindset that the student should enjoy what they are playing, so we'll look for music that you wish to play, and music that is progressively challenging. You won't be expected to buy any music materials for our lessons.

I'm looking for any student who wants to build a healthy and enjoyable relationship with piano that they will keep throughout their lives.

I love working with a range of kids to adults. I teach music theory and a variety of styles of music entirely dependent on what the student is looking for.

My experience and education in film scoring (composing music for film) in Berklee College of Music requires not only a deep. understanding of theory, but also the ability to apply these skills to create something innovative in a fast-paced environment. As a highly flexible, intuitive and quick-thinking person, I am able to adjust my teachings based on what my students need AND want.

Piano was my first love and I ended up minoring in it at OU. I love teaching piano ( beginners through advanced) to kids from 5 to 95 years old!
