Homework
Students will be given practice assignments each week, and will be encouraged to practice regularly according to their skill level.Class Experience
In this ongoing course students will learn songs both by ear and using notation, as well as play games to strengthen their knowledge of the instrument. Beginning students will start with a curriculum of my own design, and then be required to purchase a lesson book from the Piano Adventures series based on their age and skill level. Students who are returning to the piano or continuing instruction will start by playing from sheet music already purchased, and then assigned other lesson books as needed. Students will need their own instrument at home, which can be either a piano or keyboard with at least 60 keys. I am a Kodaly-certified teacher with over 17 years of experience teaching piano, and all curriculum that I have designed for lessons I will provide in digital copy at no cost to you. My philosophy is that learning is best when it’s fun, so in addition to skills, I also include interactive games in each class.

I am a certified teacher with a Master's Degree in Music Education. I have completed all three levels of Kodaly music education training, which means that I specialize in creating sequential curriculum using folk and art music. My undergraduate degree was also in Music Education, and my major instrument was piano.
I love to teach, especially preschool group classes, piano and ukulele lessons, and anything that includes joyful music making. My favorite classroom moments are when students light up with the realization of how much they really can do. It is my hope to bring that moment of confidence to each student, so they may become lifelong learners.
When I am not teaching, I am usually crocheting, reading a fantasy book, or dancing around the living room with my family.Reviews
