Piano lessons overview

I am a tutor who believes in nurturing expressive musicality through personalized teaching methodologies. My approach encompasses ear training, performance coaching, progressive instruction, and a strong focus on technique for students at all levels. Specializing in a variety of piano genres including jazz, classical, and more, I utilize a range of tech tools such as chord & scale reference apps, DAWs, metronome apps, and virtual piano apps to create an engaging learning environment. I follow a comprehensive curriculum that combines theory, practical skills, and musical creativity to cater to a diverse audience of 100+ students. From piano for kids to advanced level adults, I ensure each student receives tailored guidance and access to resources like backing track libraries and PDF sheet music repositories. My teaching style not only equips students with piano proficiency but also fosters a deep understanding of music, empowering them to become well-rounded musicians rather than mere instrumentalists. By focusing on individual growth and musical comprehension, my methodology lays a strong foundation for a lifelong musical journey.

While I was in the toy district, I started taking piano lessons with Eastwood . Her vibrant energy and strong technical focus make each session incredibly rewarding. She introduced me to both classical and pop genres and consistently encourages me to push past my limits. I can't recommend her enough.
