    Nurture the love for music this summer. Piano lessons with a professional musician

    I‘m current music faculty at ODU. I have a few openings for private lessons in our professional home studio. I incorporate technique in my teaching, while choosing repertoire that students enjoy. I have years of experience teaching music and Spanish in different environments from one on one lessons to college level students. As a mother, I especially enjoy teaching piano and music lessons to younger children.

    About Belen V.

    5.0
    (2)
    I'm a music composer/songwriter originally from Ecuador, who is also a life-long ice figure skater. I graduated with a masters degree from Berklee College of Music. I obtained my Bachelor's degree in Contemporary Music back in Ecuador. At our home studio, I enjoy composing songs and soundtracks from home while also teaching at college level. I’ve taught middle and high school Spanish for over 3 years back in California and I love teaching my native language. Ever since I was a music student in college I’ve taught piano and music lessons at different life stages. I’m opening my schedule this summer to teach piano at my home studio. My love for songwriting and singing is combined with languages. In our language classes we will learn from culture, history and research of the customs of different south American countries. We can also develop projects that involve learning songs in Spanish (and/or Portuguese). We can also practice a lot of conversation about your favorite topics!
