Piano lessons at a glance

With 23 years of teaching experience and a background in classical, jazz, and pop, I design lessons that blend solid technique with creativity, joy, and real-world musicianship. Drawing on 20+ years as a performer, recording artist, and touring songwriter, I help students connect their playing to the music they love. Lessons focus on repertoire, reading, ear training, improvisation, and songwriting while building healthy habits, rhythm, and theory fluency. My approach is patient, structured, and encouraging; students gain confidence, measurable progress, and a lifelong love of music. We emphasize mindful technique, relaxed hands, and beautiful tone, so speed and accuracy develop naturally. I also include creativity challenges and mini-concerts that keep motivation high and celebrate progress. You'll be fully supported as you build skills, technic, and confidence on the piano!

Stephen practiced C major scales hands separately and together, and sight-read several pieces including "Ode to Joy" and "Mexican Hat Dance" from the Alfred All-in-One lesson book. For continued practice, Stephen was assigned "Mexican Hat Dance," "Lightly Row," and "Aunt Roie," with a bonus challenge to complete the rest of the page independently.
