Bonnie P.

Ms. Bonnie works with both my daughters, Madison (8) and Parys (11). I find her self-developed curriculum to be engaging and simple enough for a novice learner. She is patient and kind also, which works nicely with our parenting approach. Although she is remote, you can feel her presence right within your home.

Highly recommend Bonnie. We have had over 50 lessons with Bonnie over the last 2.25 year period. My girls started with her when they were just 4 years old. Her program works. She created a fantastic and fun program with color coded animals that is great for all ages. I have friends who have never had a music lesson in their life and they can pick up her books and start playing right away. Her piano books also make great gifts for small children.

Taking lessons at her house
She has a lovely waiting room with comfortable chairs and toys. If you're Florida acclimated, bring a sweater!

Taking lessons online:
Though they are incredibly convenient, online lessons do not work well with my girls.

Bonnie is an amazing musician, teacher and person. She connected instantly with my daughter and now with my son. Her method of teaching is very creative, yet precise and engages children on every level. She motivates them with her personality and fast learning style. They are encouraged by how quickly they have learned to play notes, read music and "real" songs. Highly recommend!

Bonnie is a really patience and fun instructor. She is also very approachable, warm and lets you talk about your musical preference and will gear the lessons toward the goals that you wanted to achieve. I am having a good time learning with her because she makes things a lot easier :)

My 10 y/o daughter is taking online piano lessons with Bonnie and we couldn't be more pleased! Prior to Bonnie, she has taken lessons off and on since she was 5 and never really got into them. She dreaded practicing, and didn't really like her teacher. Bonnie is so sweet and patient with her. Every little step forward gets praise from Bonnie. My daughter is learning all kids of new stuff. She practices almost everyday, and without me telling her to. I was worried about online lessons for piano, but it doesn't seem to interfere with the teaching/learning process. Glad to have found TakeLessons and more importantly, Bonnie!

Bonnie has had a major impact on my daughters’ music studies since we were introduced July 2012. With the guidance of a dedicated music professional and patient teachings, my daughter has not only learned to play the oboe and piano, my daughter has made personal accomplishments beyond our expectation, and has brought out a sense of self-confidence within her.

Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for playing an important roll in teaching our daughter a skill that will truly last a lifetime.

So far LOVING the lessons! :D

These few days being taught how to play the piano has been an amazing and extremely fun experience. My teacher is one of the greatest ones out there! She's very joyous and hilarious but when she has work to do she does it and she's very well focused on it as well. Having an super duper trooper looper awesome time! :D

My son Arnav Mohan is enjoying his classes with Mrs. Bonnie. He is looking forward to next class each time. He feels Mrs. Bonnie makes it simple to learn faster and always rewarding the students. Thank you Mrs. Bonnie. I truly appreciate your enthusiasm and your teaching methods which helps students to learn and also helps to develop the interest in Piano.

Great with kids!

Bonnie has remarkable patients and allows her students the freedom to talk about the things they like and show her some of the things they find fun. She also is able to redirect them back to the lesson at hand. She does this in a way where the student wants to do what she says.She is an excellent teacher and I would highly recommend her for students of a young age (my son will soon be 5yrs. old).

Very warm and caring!

Bonnie is exceptional with our 4 year old son. We were hesitant to start him in lessons due to his age, but he has learned so much from Bonnie. She has a real knack of providing positive encouragement to motivate our son and she is extremely patient. He enjoys coming to lessons and I'm thankful for such a great introduction to music! More importantly than even learning piano, he is gaining math, discipline, music theory and focus skills. Bonnie is extremely warm, fun, gentle and caring. THANKS BONNIE!
