Piano Lessons in Holden, MA

Instruments: Piano Voice Violin Trumpet Trombone

For children my teaching style is very reward based, I love stickers so always give them one once they've mastered their song for the week and such. Lots of encouragement and positive feedback and working through the difficult things in a positive manner. For adults I will teach based on you! If you are really looking for a fun hobby with the music we will be more laid back and relaxed with it and can bounce around and learn all sorts of different things! Read More

Hello! I'm a passionate and motivated instructor who loves working with students and sharing my love of music. Currently I am a musicology graduate student studying at the University of Massachusetts. My undergraduate degree is from Central Michigan University where I both taught and performed regularly. As a member of Michigan Music Teachers Association and Music Teachers National Association, I have been granted the opportunities to present research on piano pedagogy both in state and national conferences and have received special training in piano pedagogy.

Instruments: Piano Saxophone

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at their own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. Read More

Instruments: Piano

My teaching experience dates back to my college days. I have provided in-home private piano and violin lessons to students (age 5-22), where I was able to work with students or students' parents and develop the curriculum according to students progress and level. I want my students to enjoy what they learn, and I encourage daily practice and correct practicing methods to achieve maximum progress. The performing technique is critical for beginners to lay down the concrete foundation while performing beautiful tunes. Read More

I do my best to be always possitive with my students that will make the lesson full of smiles and laughters! I welcome students presenting their own idea of what to learn and keeping me updated with their most current interest. Music is a language, which is meant for communication. That's why I love exchaning ideas. I also expect students to trust my instruction and follow it with consistency vice versa. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Bass Guitar French Horn

I began teaching as soon as I could. My dad held piano lessons out of our house and inspired me to teach guitar (the only instrument my dad wasn't terribly good at). I also taught trumpet, French horn and piano throughout high school. When I got to college, no one at Berklee really needed lessons in instruments anymore, however, I spent a lot of time tutoring kids in Music Theory, Arranging and other more technical aspects of music.
