Piano Lessons in Bristow. Amazing Teachers.

I've been teaching piano for over 25 years and have taught students from 4 to 70. I try to show each student how to analyze the music to find patterns that make learning notes and rhythms easier.
I also emphasize strategies for practicing that make learning new material a quicker and more efficient process.

Jazz/Classical are two of the areas I have done advanced training in.

I teach children, teens, and adults using a variety of music and and methods. I teach keyboard harmony and music theory, as well as by _ear_. I'll happily answer your questions.

I am patient and accomodating to my students. I draw on a diverse body of repretoire and experience.

Exactly what I teach, and how quickly we progress varies from student-to-student.

I have a B.M. degree in Music Technology.

I believe music education is for everyone. Whether you are an older beginner or an accomplished youth, you will reap benefits from continuing your music education.

My focus is to work with each student to match their learning style and help them achieve their goals. In my 15 years of teaching experience, I have worked with a wide range of skill levels. Each student is unique in their approach and desires. I work alongside them to teach them in a style that works best for their needs.

I believe in building a strong foundation of music theory, as well as the ability to play. By learning music theory, students develop comprehension that will increase their progression. Students will be able to learn their favorite songs and the classics with ease.

No matter where you are in life, I would love to help you accomplish your goals!

Lessons with Nancy will include games, creative exercises, and many "create your own song" activities. When Nancy isn't teaching, she enjoys biking, hiking, and playing tug-of-war with her dog.

Do you want to play classical piano music, rock keyboard, pop music, jazz? You are in the right place!

I choose and adapt songs according to the age, interests, goals, and skills of the students. I also use the songs to teach different musical concepts: intervals, progressions, scales, chords. Every student is different, so I don't use any specific method.
