How do I get started?Getting started is simple. Reach out through our contact form or schedule a call— I’ll walk you through the next steps and answer any questions along the way.
What makes you different?For 25 years I have been teaching piano lessons in person. In 2008 I began teaching on line when a neighborhood family moved overseas. Teaching remotely forced me to look at various teaching tools. I began using an app that has about 75 lesson books along with an extensive library of popular songs. The app allows students to progress at a quicker pace and to learn supplemental music at the right level.
What music will I be learning? I want students to have fun and learn the music they want to play and sing. I have students work on the fundamentals but incorporate those early on into music they enjoy.
How much do you charge for these services?Most people want 30 minute lessons and those cost $35 whether in person or online. Same goes for voice.
Piano performance rates are by the hour. They start at $250 for the first hour and drop to $150 per hour after that.
Consultations are free. Let’s see if I’m the right teacher for you.
Do I have to sign any contract? What is the minimum commitment?You do not need to sign a contract, I want you to be happy with the lessons and enjoy the time we spend learning. I ask people to commit for two months before determining if lessons will work for them. Nobody has ever quit after eight weeks. Tuition is paid at the beginning of each month. Consultations are totally free.
