Ms. Olivia

I can't recommend Olivia highly enough!  She did an excellent job with my ants-in-his-pants 7-year-old son.  She is extremely patient and knows the trick to motivate each student individually. She figured out what "made my son tick", and taught him from that perspective.   One thing I especially appreciated was Olivia's ensemble piano efforts with my son and the rest of the students in her studio.  They played such a sweet 8-hand piano piece for a recital. It brought down the house!  It is a rare teacher that would be willing to take the time to coordinate 4 students and coach them through a song so that they'd be able to perform on a recital.

My experience with Olivia was been outstanding! While I was completing my undergraduate degree, I hired Olivia to perform a few difficult piano movements I had written. Before that point, I did not have much experience writing for piano, but she had incredible insight into making the music more idiomatic for the piano. Additionally, I received piano lessons from her to supplement my college instruction. She was very very patient and her love for the piano was clear through her instruction. I could not recommend her high enough.
