    About Christina E.

    Hi, there! My name is Christina E. and I can't wait to meet you! I've been teaching private lessons for 15 plus years and have loved helping my students prepare for concerts, school auditions, and just learning music. I attended the Alabama School of Fine Arts high school and Queens University of Charlotte while earning a degree in Music Therapy and Psychology. I am calm as well as patient and my teaching style reflects that. I am excited this year to introduce WunderKeys for Preschoolers age 3-5. Why Wunderkeys – This method helps to encourage first experience in music lessons while helping to provide a long term enjoyment of the piano. The Method book is designed to be a one- on – one , 30 minute lesson that contains 10 lessons in each book. On average it does take a child a full school year to complete the program. Using the this method book it helps to build confidence, and solidify musical concepts. This is all done through songs and games. Also this year I will be focusing more on individuals that have special needs. As a Music Therapist I am able to adapt music lessons so that it is more teachable for those with special needs. I look forward to helping you reach your goals!
