What to Expect from Your Lessons
Part 1: Your First Step - The Free Intro Lesson
It all starts with a complimentary 30-minute introductory lesson. It's a relaxed, no-pressure way for us to meet, talk about your musical interests, and see if we're a good fit. I'll get a sense of your goals, and you'll get a feel for my teaching style.
Part 2: The Learning Environment
You'll be learning in our home studio. It's a warm, quiet, and friendly space where you can feel comfortable and focused. The most important thing is that you have a teacher who is 100% dedicated to your success during our time together.
Part 3: What You'll Need
For your lesson, you just need to bring your music books and a positive attitude! To make progress, you'll also need access to a piano or a full-sized keyboard at home for regular practice. I can help you with recommendations if you need them.

Get StartedFrequently Asked Questions
-
What do I need to get started?
For your lessons in our studio, you only need to bring a willingness to learn! We provide everything else. For your practice at home, regular access to a piano or a full-sized digital keyboard with weighted keys and a pedal is essential for making progress. We are happy to provide recommendations on suitable instruments if you are looking to purchase one.
-
What ages do you teach?
I have taught students from age 3 to 80 and anywhere in-between. The youngest a student can be is dependent on the individual student. While some students may be ready quite young, most children will not enjoy lessons until they are a little older (usually around 6 or 7). If you are very interested in your child taking lessons early, feel free to contact us about our free evaluation lesson.
-
What specialties do you teach?
There are certain skills necessary for any skilled pianist, such as note reading, sight reading, theory, technique, etc. The material used to develop these skills can depend on the student's own interest and goals. I offer lessons aligned with the Royal Conservatory of Music curriculum, including preparation for practical and theory exams. I encourgae school-aged students to participate in NYSSMA exams, and all students to participate in RCM exams, as well as any available recitals.
-
Do you offer online lessons as well?
Yes, while our primary focus is on the rich experience of in-person instruction, we do offer online lessons. This provides a flexible option for students who may be traveling or for those who live outside our immediate area but still wish to benefit from our teaching methods.
