Homework
1-2 hours per week. Ideally students should practice several times each week between lessons. The amount of time varies depending on the age of the student and their preferences, but in general it is better to practice more frequently for a shorter amount of time than to practice once or twice for a longer period.

Other Details

Supply List
You will need a piano or piano keyboard. It is best to get something that has full size, touch sensitive keys. Yamaha and Casio are reliable brands. 
We will use a piano method book, I use Carol Matz's Interactive Piano method, but if you already have one we can discuss using the one you already have.
External Resources
Learners will not need to use any apps or websites beyond the standard Outschool tools.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Vermont Teaching Certificate in Music/Theater/Arts
I have taught hundreds of beginning piano students! While pursuing my music and education degrees I studied piano at the undergraduate and graduate level. I also have training in Alexander Technique and Body Mapping, and use my experience and knowledge of those techniques to help students develop a physical technique that will support them in developing a free and fluid technique and reduce risk of performance injuries.  I have experience with and professional development for creating neuroaffirming learning experiences, and welcome neurodivergent learners to my studio.
