We are really happy with our teacher. The lessons are so much fun. He does a super job with our two kids. They're always excited about going to their piano lessons. They love the songs that they are learning.
There is such a variety of things for them to learn; writing music and learning about making recordings, just like in a studio. We are so pleased that they are acquiring music reading skills, ear training, and theory also. A great teacher. - Sandra H.
Playing piano is so satisfying and relaxing to me. I began piano lessons about two years ago as a beginner. Since then, my perspective about music has completely changed. I now listen to music differently and understand it better. I play whenever I have a few moments, either new songs I am learning, or one of my favorites. My teacher is so skilled at communication. All the questions I have each week are answered in great detail and with much patience. I can see how my teacher really cares about his student's success. - Melissa R.
Our teacher is very experienced and patient. I'm so pleased that my son is making real progress. The piano lessons are fun, and that really helps him to stay focused. We were lucky to find a teacher that is a great match for my child. Patience is everything when it comes to piano lessons, and he really has that. Tom is learning not just how to play piano, but all about music and how it is put together. Fascinating for him as well as for me. He also records videos of himself playing, and we email these to Grandma. The lessons encourage my son to be challenged. - Mary Thomas
Finding the right piano teacher is everything. Take the time to find the teacher that’s right for you. A good piano teacher should know the best way to work with each student. Lessons should challenge and encourage each person to learn at the level they
feel most comfortable with. A piano instructor should have a stress free and fun environment for students. The piano teacher should be very patient and encouraging, and provide a supportive, relaxed learning studio. Students should feel free to be curious, ask questions, and say what’s on their mind. For students to be successful, they need to be inspired, have fun, and feel a sense of accomplishment. That will motivate them to success. I encourage my students to relax and have a great time at the lessons.Students often ask if a keyboard will be ok instead of a piano. Yes! A keyboard can be a great replacement for a piano. Learning to play is very much the same whether on a keyboard or piano.
♦ Individual LessonsAll my lessons are private, one-on-one individual lessons. Individual lessons insure that you will get the most out of the time spent, and you will progress quickly. It’s the most effective method of learning to play piano. I never do group lessons. Private, individual piano lessons provides you the extra attention to make your learning move forward. This will result in a faster and better understanding of material presented.
Successful piano lessons brings out the creativity and individuality of each student. I have very few rules about learning piano. Every student is different, and will move ahead at the rate that they are comfortable with. I teach with a modern, effective, and personal approach. The lessons are yours, and I want you to enjoy the experience of learning piano.
♦ A Unique, Personal Learning Experience
For beginner students, children or adults the goal is the same. Learn music you like, and find joy in making music. Students who 
are excited and inspired learn rapidly. There is such a wonderful selection of music that sounds great on the keyboard; classical, popular, folk, jazz, blues, new age. Playing fun music will keep you motivated and make lessons something you look forward to.
I enjoy teaching beginner and intermediate piano and keyboard students. You can expect to have fun, be creative and enjoy learning. A lifetime of music is a great gift to yourself or your child. Be yourself at the studio, relax and. There is no more satisfying experience than expressing yourself through music.
