Lessons for Beginners
30 minute lessons
Your child's musical journey starts whenever you or your child are interested and ready!
Developmentally, ages 5-6 is a great age for young children to start piano lessons. Having prior experience teaching Kindermusik (an early childhood music curriculum), I work well with young children. We focus on establishing a strong foundation in note reading and rhythm in a fun and engaging environment.
Older and adult beginners are also welcome to begin lessons! There is a wonderful variety of material designed for all age groups and paces.

Lessons for Intermediate/Advanced Students
45 minute lessons
These are designed for students in their 2nd year (or beyond) of study.
For Intermediate and advanced students, I focus on the Achievement in Music Exams, a comprehensive curriculum written by the Illinois State Music Teachers Association. Students take theory and performance exams passing one level each year. AIM gives students long term goals to set and achieve.

Lessons for Adults
Lesson length varies: 30/45/60 minutes
A lot of adults who inquire about lessons either a) have never taken lessons but always wanted to or b) took lessons awhile back and want to resume. Some adults take lessons in conjunction with their children, to make it a family affair!
In-person private lessons with in instructor are far superior to learning online. Consider checking this off your bucket list!
