    About Vicki S.

    4.6
    (3)
    I'm a mother and grandmother, active in my community and have lived in CA since 1998. I will travel to the home of the student so they can play in their own environment and on their own piano. My goal is to teach people to learn the rudiments and play piano for their enjoyment so they will feel joyful and eager about practicing daily! We can use popular music as well as the established programs so that students feel they are progressing more rapidly and can play for themselves or friends/family. Music is inspirational and especially when we are free to create our own! It makes us feel happy! :-) some early evening hours a possibility for working people, contact me please stating time requested. thanks.

    Vicky is an excellent teacher and wonderful person. She is very patient dealing with my ability to learn to play piano. I highly recommend her as the best teacher for any age student. Sincerely Eva

    She was very good with my 3 year old. He really liked her and she would give him breaks or change to another topic to teach. That was really nice. So he wouldn't get bored doing the same thing for the entire lesson.
