Group Lessons at Piedmont Piano

The classes are a well-rounded exploration of music. We will mainly learn by osmosis- meaning the children might not know we are "learning" because we will be busy experiencing. We approach many general musical aspects including; keyboard (everyone has their own), singing, listening, movement, rhythm and introduction to some theory (basic and simple). The keyboard is the main theme and learning tool in the class, however, I offer a mixed curriculum with other elements. I am a big fan of creativity and together we will write a song, using what we are learning in class. I encourage self-expression, and give the opportunity for the children to share a recording of their favorite music, bring in an instrument or sing a song for us. The class is a fun musical experience, that I truly believe in and love teaching. I hope you will find great value in it as well.
The 45-minute classes are once a week, run for a total of 8 weeks, and the cost is $200 for the entire course. The first class is a trail class, and you need only pay for that day; I allow the opportunity to experience a class before committing to the course. If you do want to join, you would pay the remainder the following week.
I am aware of schedules changing, planned and unplanned circumstances that arise. If you know well in advance there is a date you cannot make, please let me know and it would be my pleasure to not charge you.
If there is ever an issue, concern or comment you'd like to express I am always available to communicate with outside of class. Thank you!

Private and Semi-Private Lessons

We will explore both the respected instrument and you as the musician and artist; rythymically, melodically, technically and creatively. We will have a lot of fun as well as learn to work and respect ourselves and our skill!
I teach in private, semi-private and small group settings, at the Piedmont Piano Company or in your own home. My expertise is in working with children.
