Class Experience

In this one-time beginners class, students will be introduced to piano playing. They will learn the layout of the keyboard, finger numbers, proper hand position, dynamics, and rhythm. Students will learn short songs, which I will provide the resources. My teaching style for this age is very fun, happy, and encouraging to the students as they discover the joy of learning piano. Through interactive multimedia presentations and fun games, your child will learn music in a fun and exciting way.

Your child will learn along with others in a supportive environment aimed to foster their confidence and self-esteem. My animated keyboard will show your child color-coded fingerings as they play to help them follow along. Additional games, activities, and resources will be made available as needed. No prior experience is required. A keyboard is needed for this class.

All about the teacher, Christine:

"It's not just about creativity. It's about the person you're becoming while creating."
This quote epitomizes my teaching philosophy concisely. My mission is to raise my students’ artistic confidence, grow their skills, and teach them to enjoy the art-making process while building integrity and good character.

I started performing on stage at the age of four years old. I began formal private lessons in voice and acting at the age of 10 at The Newark School of the Arts and at The Children’s Theater Workshop in Essex County, New Jersey. As a young teen, I also began directing and leading the youth and adult choirs in church. As a result of my commitment to my craft, I had numerous opportunities to perform and record as an accomplished artist throughout the United States and abroad.

As an international performer, my credits include touring throughout the country of China as a lead singer for the state of the arts Thai City Theater. Other recent credits include working as a lead production singer for the renowned cruise line, Carnival; sailing the Western and Eastern Caribbean islands performing Las Vegas-style production shows.

I perform regularly for various commercial establishments and private venues. I studied Music and Theater at Montclair State University earning a BA degree along with a teaching license in performing arts.

The overall goal of my teaching philosophy is to cultivate independent and critically thinking artists. I want to produce well-rounded individuals, instill a lifelong love of music and theater in every student, and create an effective performance medium in which students will grow not only musically, but also personally and professionally. Through these principles, I strive to become a key mentor in their educational journey.
