About David W.

🎵 About Me: I started out playing the guitar in church accompanying other musicians. After graduating from Lee University in 2007 with a Bachelors degree in music, I pursued my passion of teaching piano. Music has been my lifelong passion, and I'm dedicated to sharing that love with students of all ages. 🎼 My Teaching Philosophy: I focus on building a strong music foundation based on technical skills, music theory, and ear training. My students learn the discipline on how to master a musical piece so that they can successfully and confidently perform in various settings. I understand that most students taking piano lessons will not be professional pianists in the future. However, my goal is to teach them how to learn to play a musical piece with passion so that they might enjoy music for the rest of their lives.
