    Patient piano teacher for beginner and intermediate levels; Master's degree in Music Ed

    I am an experienced teacher of 20 years, specializing in beginner/intermediate piano students! All ages are welcome. Lessons are customized to the needs, goals, and interests of each student. I am classically trained but have a special interest in playing piano accompaniments for pop music and show tunes while singing. Are you looking for a positive and patient teacher to help you find effective practice techniques? Not only will you be playing songs in no time, but you will be building a strong foundation of note reading, music theory, ear training, sight reading, technique, and more. Let's get started!

    Michelle is amazing with my son, he listens to her, is attentive in class and within a short time span of time, he's learnt a great deal from her. Michelle takes the time to understand him and has guided him progressively through resources / books material etc.
