n to the children. In 1995, I published my first book
“Do-Mi-Sol”, that focuses on a method specifically designed to teach kids
Solfege (oral theory and ear training).
From 1998 to 2001 I was in charge of training aspiring music teachers
at the Ecole Normale in piano, music education, psychology of music
education, and the philosophy of music education.
By the year 2000,I was appointed Director of Studies and the Academic
Secretary of the Music Faculty at the Holy Spirit University of Kaslik.

developed artistic and academic programs. It was my responsibility to
organize studies and examinations, as well as plan, execute, organize studies and examinations, as well as plan and execute
concerts, conventions, and competitions. I have lectured all over Europe and the Middle East, as well as published many articles concerning music and music education.

*** Lesson Details ***
Our musical journey has a smooth and relaxed progression, establishing enough command of the keyboard to allow each student to develop naturally. To make the piano a richer and more rewarding experience, I enjoy introducing a variety of musical styles, from popular favorites to timeless classical pieces, according to the student’s musical tastes.
I believe in a dynamic and responsive method of teaching. I see the student as an active participant in their own learning. Our lesson feels pleasant and joyful, so the student will always delight in playing the piano and creating music. Based on the student’s age and demands, I employ several methods of teaching that lead to the development of observation, concentration, creativity, self-confidence, and personal expression. I encourage and support my students regardless of specific talent, as we move toward an effective and beneficial musical experience.

*** Lesson Details ***
As a teacher, I would work with the student on learning there favorite song. This would be a goal to set for the student for the first three months. They would be taught to do the scale with their right hand. The
y would learn there sharps and flats and the difference between the two key signatures. They would also learn during the first six months some of the basic terms in music theory. I would set goals, but never overwhelm the student, but work with them according to how much they could take in. They would have weekly assignments. If an assignment is not mastered during that time, then we would review it and carry it to the next week. When one assignment is mastered, then the student would work on the next. This would be a step by step processed. My goal for the student the first six months is to get that child or adult to be able to play their chords in their left hand, octaves and fillings in their right hand and know how to work the pedals. They would understand and know the key signatures and what timing they are playing in. The student would also know some of the basic music terms. Please keep in mind that this depends on how much information that the student can process. With some it could take a little bit longer. With others it would take less time.

About Rees F.

What makes piano lessons with me unique is my wide interests,experiences, and passions within music. I've studied classical and jazz and have a degree in pop music which enables me to teach in any genre. I also work hard to personalize each lesson and really get to know my students learning styles.
About Rees
I am a professional multi-instrumentalist, singer-songwriter and producer. I graduated from USC Thornton School of Music with a Bachelor's Degree in Music Performance, specifically within Popular Music. Students can expect their lessons to be highly personalized based on their interests and learning styles. Having operated in so many facets musically, I know how much depth is involved in being a complete musician and I encourage my students to be lifelong music lovers. I've performed alongside wide ranging acts such as John Fogerty, Glenn Frey, The Beach Boys, X-Ambassadors, and Diplo, and I've been mentored by greats such as Patrice Rushen and Glen Ballard. Knowing the value that mentorship has played in my musical journey encourages me to pay-it-forward. I love working with students who are as curious and passionate as I am.

About Christine W.

My name is Christine and I am a piano performance major at University of Rhode Island. I am a classical pianist, very advanced in music theory and I can also read sheet music very well and fast. I have been playing piano for 16 years and taught by various professors from Hong Kong, Massachusetts and Rhode Island. I also have intermediate knowledge in jazz piano and would be able to teach that as well.
I like to be able to expand your music knowledge as well as making you a better pianist. In order to expand your knowledge, I will teach you various things in music theory that will help you have a better understanding of what you are playing. Music theory is part of the lesson, so please don't be alarmed that you aren't playing piano for the entire lesson.
If you allow me, I will do to the best of my ability to fulfill your musical potential.
About Christine
Hi! I am Christine. I am a very goal-oriented person and I believe that practice makes perfect. I am a professional pianist who is currently focusing on classical but I can play or teach any genre.
I have worked with vocalists, chamber ensembles, to a full orchestra. I started playing piano at a young age of 5, and discovered a sincere passion for this instrument. As I grew older, I grew a much deeper appreciation into the theory which has allowed me to understand music SO MUCH MORE! I would love to share my skills and knowledge with you, hoping to make you the best player you can be and develop the passion that I have developed for the piano.

About Betsy P.
Close
Hi! I first started taking piano lessons when I was 5. I've always loved music, even at a very young age. I have a B.A. in Music Performance, 6 years of teaching experience, and nearly 30 years of playing practice. And I love teaching piano! I've taught students of all ages (beginning preschoolers, advanced high schoolers, and everything in between). Most of my students play a mixture of lesson books, classical pieces, and radio hits, and enjoy performing their pieces at our recitals.
About Betsy
I started playing the piano when I was 5 and competed in piano competitions for many years growing up. I continued with lessons through high school and majored in music in college. I taught piano for about six years in Virginia Beach, through 2 music studios and on my own, and recently moved to the Glen Allen area. The majority of my students were in elementary and middle school. I have also taught high school students, adults, and preschoolers.
Because I like to play all sorts of music, I teach it all, too. I'm classically trained, but I've taught pop songs, rock ballads, Bach, Debussy, Chopin, you name it! Depending on the student's individual needs and wishes, I can teach Faber & Faber, Alfred, Wunderkeys, and supplement with popular songs, technique, theory books, and everything else!

Depending on the student's individual needs and wishes, I can teach Faber & Faber, Alfred, Wunderkeys, and supplement with popular songs, technique, theory books, and everything else! I've had students who want to work more on cho
rds to play along with church groups, holiday songs for parties, and those who just want to learn their favorite songs on the radio. My students have performed recitals at churches, the mall, and retirement homes.
I have all of the books and skill needed to teach piano, and I hope you're excited to get started. I try to make sure that we have fun in lessons while learning new skills and pieces. Let me know if you have any questions!
"Ms. Betsy provided superb, structured piano instruction to my daughter, who was initially, less than enthusiastic about learning to play the piano. With Ms. Betsy’s patient and persistent encouragement, Elena learned the foundations of music theory and how to apply the principles of musicianship. In addition, Ms. Betsy coordinated opportunities that included a duet I played with my daughter. I would recommend Ms. Betsy to anyone searching for a dedicated, caring and qualified piano teacher."

About Rachel W.

I have been giving lessons since 2006, and I have seen music enrich the lives of many in countless ways. Whether you are looking for a new hobbie, a new passion, or for something to keep your kids engaged and busy, learning an instrument has endless benefits both long term and short.
I will make a personalized lesson plan based on 2 big questions: why do you want to take lessons? Where do you want to be at the end of it?
Lets go from there.
About Rachel
I have been playing the piano and the trombone since childhood. Growing up in a musical family, music has always played a big part in my life. I was active in school bands in addition to taking private lessons throughout grade school. In high school I was a member of Tri-M (a musical honor society), qualified for district band through audition, and was ranked in the top 10% of trombone players in the state of Virginia. Throughout my education I developed a working knowledge of brass instruments, music theory, a variety of playing styles, and much more.
After high school, I pursued and earned a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology at Virginia Commonwealth University, while continuing my musical career, playing in bands offered by the school as well as in the Richmond area. I am currently active with the ACCA Temple Shiners in their German band
