Arcadia, OK Piano Lessons

My mission, is to create a private and educational environment to students of all ages. One that enriches their senses to music, through reading, writing, ear training, performance and technique.

I can help those, who are new to the instrument, to become familiar with scales, progressions, technique, reading, and musical styles. I enjoy helping students find their voices and tastes by using videos and music that inspires them. If students already have some songs that they wish to learn, I can help them achieve those goals, as well.

Amanda is a classically trained pianist well versed in multiple styles of music and music theory throughout the eras. Your lesson will begin by getting to know your individual goals and desires. An individualized plan will be developed to help you meet your goals. You will learn to read and understand music and be able to play full songs as well as learning exercises to develop your technique. Amanda uses hard work and positive reinforcement and encouragement to keep lessons fun.

Piano Lessons may include the following...

+ Piano warm-up exercises
+ Technique and style development
+ Selected songs to practice
+ A recorded copy of the lesson to review and practice with.

As a private instructor, Nicholas seeks to develop students of his own to build excellent technique that they may become confident and comfortable pianists in any style they desire.

I am currently pursuing a Bachelor's Degree in Music and Piano Performance at The Juilliard School studying with legendary pedagogue and Chair of Piano Dr. Veda Kaplinsky. I've traveled the musical world and studied with several of the world's most sought after pianists, including Sergei Babayan, mentor of international piano star Daniil Trifonov, as one of eight students worldwide accepted to his final Babayan International Piano Academy. I've performed with the Seattle Symphony amongst other concerts with orchestras in Europe, and perform regularly as a soloist in the greater NYC area and Seattle at venues including Carnegie Hall. Since beginning my teaching career, I've looked forward to sharing my knowledge with young students in order to nurture their artistic talents and unique musical sense. Students will be able to perceive piano not only as a skill and genuinely enjoyable activity, but also as the most sincere and effective form of emotional expression and as a friend with ...

My experience teaching piano spans nine years and I have helped my students develop their performance and interpretation skills to succeed in both examinations and their academic pursuits.
In addition, my students have learned to play their favorite songs, sing and play or improvise for special occasions or recreation. In our first lesson, we'll discuss your private goals and develop a plan for their realization. Within the first few weeks, we'll work on specific skills and techniques in order to achieve your goal. From the beginning, you will have a chance to practice your skills and work on music that inspires you on a grand piano. If desired, you'll have an opportunity to play your music at an annual recital or other performance opportunities.

My selection of materials depends on your skill level and personal goals. For beginners, I will often use Faber Piano Adventures, Alfred Piano, and the RCM Piano series. The RCM Piano series also caters to intermediate and advanced ...

Learning how to play the piano provides a foundation for learning how to play other instruments, learning music theory, cultivating analytical skills and abstract thinking, and discovering artistic expression.

My goal with each student is to teach them by using pieces of music that they love and want to learn how to play.

I have been teaching professionally for 15 years. I have a specific teaching curriculum that design specifically for teach students. I believe in order to play the piano well, you need to have a good technical foundation. But all the exercises are boring, so improving by learning the music that you'd like to play is the best way to do it. That way you are motivated to practice.

I teach only classical music, and specialize in audition preparation. I want my students to reach their musical potential and aspirations while having a wonderful time!

I'm a mother of 4 and I love kids! I taught piano to children for 10 years then quit so I could have a family. I've missed it and decided to start up my studio again. I start children on the Alfred Method which consists of a Lesson Book, Theory Book and Activity and Ear Training book. The books compliment each other well so that there are also coloring activities as well as learning the notes, fingerings, etc. I like to reward kids with stickers when they do well and sometimes use a goody box as incentive. I like to make lessons fun for the kids.

I am a young, friendly and enthusiastic teacher, and want all my students to achieve high results!
I teach ladies and girls all ages, starting from 7 years old till 107! I love tutoring, and especially developing your musical talents further. I teach piano classical music- by note, and also by ear all genres of music.
