"Use the talents you possess...for the woods would be silent if no birds
sang but the best."
Hello! I enjoy helping folks of all ages learn to play the piano. I am known
for lots of patience, understanding, and good nature, and personally enjoy the
ongoing study of piano performance. I encourage student performance by participation
in studio recitals and group lessons, school and church activities, as well as sharing music with our senior residents.
Beginning students will adhere to a published piano method to gain a solid foundation
in note reading, rhythm, fingering, and theory. I am very particular about each
of these, and my desire is for every student to play expressively. Students
will have an individual lesson plan, as I strive to incorporate music each one
enjoys into the lessons-classical, pop, gospel, country, and jazz.
Instruction in music composition is also available.
