Hi, my name is Rebecca. I love teaching piano. I come to your home so you can play on your instrument and not bother with travel time. I help fit it into your busy schedule. Over the past 20 years, I’ve taught students ages 5 – 60+, including special needs children. I teach because I want to, not because I need to. As a result, I’ve seen all kinds of successes in my students’ playing abilities. I have four children of my own who all learned piano and went onto other instruments in high school orchestra and band – including marching and jazz band.
My Teaching Style
I work through a proven individualized curriculum that builds a solid music foundation. I don’t hold recitals or any other high-pressure performances. Instead, we build a foundation, and we work toward your own personal goals – classical, your favorite songs from the radio, or anything else. Playing the piano should be enjoyable and last a lifetime. It’s also an excellent avenue for children to develop maturity and responsibility. If a child is old enough to play, then they are mature enough to take responsibility. This is their lesson. It’s not the parents’ job to practice with them. I also don’t believe in teaching a child before they are ready to learn – I’ll help you decide what and when is right for you and your child and never waste their time or your money.
