Bowling Green, VA Piano Lessons

I am an active professional singer with six years of teaching experience in both voice and piano. While my degrees specialize in vocal performance, I have studied piano privately for over 10 years. My students include a range of levels and ages who vary in musical aspirations and backgrounds. My students are given every opportunity to become well-rounded, performing musicians when studying with me. I am a friendly, open-minded, enthusiastic musician who loves teaching others!

"Experienced Piano teacher of 7 years available for eager students of all experience levels and ages! I structure my lessons so students learn what they want to learn, while also building a strong foundation of classical and popular piano skills. I specialize in rock, spiritual, patriotic and standard music and typically use the Alfred series books for all ages. I teach music theory, ear training, dynamics, technic as well as sight reading. I also have the following tools available to use during lessons: piano, sheet music, keyboard charts and more. Let a caring teacher bring the love of music into your life. Let your talent shine.

Most of my students are pianists playing Acoustic Piano plus Digital & Electronic Keyboards. Some are also vocal students composing their own music.

Consultation with the student create the path we are to follow, using Berklee methodologies as a base subset for learning.

My experience teaching piano spans nine years and I have helped my students develop their performance and interpretation skills to succeed in both examinations and their academic pursuits.
In addition, my students have learned to play their favorite songs, sing and play or improvise for special occasions or recreation. In our first lesson, we'll discuss your private goals and develop a plan for their realization. Within the first few weeks, we'll work on specific skills and techniques in order to achieve your goal. From the beginning, you will have a chance to practice your skills and work on music that inspires you on a grand piano. If desired, you'll have an opportunity to play your music at an annual recital or other performance opportunities.

My selection of materials depends on your skill level and personal goals. For beginners, I will often use Faber Piano Adventures, Alfred Piano, and the RCM Piano series. The RCM Piano series also caters to intermediate and advanced ...

Depending on your goal, the lessons would vary but they will base on the fundamentals: Music Theory, Scales, and the pieces/ songs that you would like to learn. It's going to be a lot of fun!
Nothing is more rewarding than seeing my students fall in love with the instrument like I did because they understand the technique and the story behind each piece of music.

I believe that everyone has unique talents and gifts. Private piano lessons are an excellent way to hone your musical skills and keep your brain active and stimulated. I firmly believe that students of every age can benefit from piano lessons, and it is my mission to provide you with the perfect mix of top-quality instruction, musical development, and good, old-fashioned fun that will keep you playing for the rest of your life! No matter what your personal goals, I look forward to helping you experience the magic of making music.

I have seen which are the problems that most of the students struggle with and I also have seen a lot of teachers that don't help them in a good way.

So that's why I created lessons with an individual approach for each student, applying knowledge that I received from wonderful teachers I have had.

I come from a strict Russian method, but I found a way to balance this methods with the student itself, because everyone is unique.
