About Makayla S.

4.9
(21)
I am a classically-trained pianist with a Bachelor of Arts in Music and concentrations in Piano Pedagogy (a fancy word for teaching) and Arranging. I am also a Nationally Certified Teacher of Music in Piano through MTNA. I have been teaching piano since 2017, and I love helping my students succeed in their goals at the piano. I teach classical piano at the beginning, intermediate, and early advanced levels; and I have advanced teaching software to make your online lessons easy-to-follow and fun! In high school and college, my favorite subject was English - so it is no surprise that I also teach writing through TakeLessons! I have an Associate of Arts in Education, and I enjoy helping my students learn the art and craft of writing. Whether you are working on a school assignment or writing a book, I would love to help you organize your ideas, find your unique style, and begin writing!

My daughter is a reluctant writer. Makayla was gentle and enthusiastic with her and everything went well. I look forward to their work together and helping my daughter improve in her writing.

It took me a while to find the worship teacher I was looking for...and then Makayla came my way. In half a year, she made my dream happening. It's a joy to learn chord playing, accompaniment patterns, fills, ...whilst singing for the LORD, our Creator. And I also feel confident now to play hymns, in a more reflective style, at my Church. Makayla is amazing and makes learning so easy and fun. What a blessing she is.

My desire to play the piano never escaped my thoughts despite many fruitful years spent in my chosen career. Hence, when I finally retired, I felt was time for me to revisit the past and take the chance to see if I can still fulfill, even just in part, what I have left unaccomplished. I am in my seventies now and this seems to be impossible. Nonetheless, I thought there was no harm in trying, and it was at this point in time when I got in touch with Ms. Makayla. She learned about my case and after which I was completely surprised in awe to have witnessed the most gleeful and encouraging reaction from her. It was truly exhilarating as she rekindled my long lost dream. Makayla is one most positive motivator par excellence. Age limit is not an issue with her. Instead, she gives much premium to enthusiasm, excitement and affection for the endeavor on hand. Whether or not aptitude indicates you being a fast or slow learner, Makayla accords such remarkable patience in making her students persevere and be determined to learn. Her consistently pleasant and friendly attitude towards her student makes her genuinely likable and a great delight to work and relate with. My piano sessions have been going on for several months now, and both Makayla and I are extremely happy and completely satisfied with my progress. I couldn't ask for more! I would definitely vouch for and absolutely recommend her to everyone wishing to experience the joy of piano lessons.
