    Thorough and detail. Takes time to explain and ensures the topic is well understood before moving on.

    Only one lesson so far, but exactly what I was looking for. Great lesson structure, work assignments, and tips to help speed things along.

    She has been a great piano teacher for my son from the beginning of his piano studies. He has improved in all areas from technic, musicality, and theory. Highly recommended for all levels of piano playing.
