Programs Tailor Made for All Needs
My piano studio is located in my home in Troy, Michigan.
I offer 30- 45- and 1 hour lessons, depending on the student's level. Usually, beginners will have 30-minute lessons, intermediate students will have 45-minute lessons, and advanced students will have hour long lessons. See below for the programs I offer. Please contact me for my current rates.
I also offer a free trial lesson to each student, so that the student, parent and myself can get to know each other. This is a great way for me to assess the student's musical abilities and ensure we are a good fit, and for the parent and student to ask me any questions they may have.

Children and Teen Piano Program
Piano Lessons that Kids Love!
Parents fear their kids will think piano lessons are boring and tedious.
I made it my personal mission to keep kids captivated, motivated and engaged with piano lessons.
Kids instinctively love music - it's a natural and big part of their lives. However.... Kids nowadays have so much going on – from school, sports, homework, chores, etc. - the last thing wanted or needed is another thing to add on to an already overburdened “to do” list. Unfortunately, piano lessons often get lumped under the heading of “more homework.” What if piano lessons weren’t dull and tedious? What if practicing wasn’t just “more homework?” By encouraging exploration, imagination and giving them tools for success, I help students discover just how fun learning piano can be.
When creating my own piano lesson program, I put great thought and effort to create lessons that were captivating, engaging and creative. My students:
-
Learn the foundations of music (theory, rhythm, steady pulse, note reading) right away, setting the stage for them to learn all types of music.
-
Write their own songs, giving them license to be creative, have ownership, and gain a deeper understanding of music.
-
Reap all the benefits that science has shown piano instruction provides, including: increased academic performance, raising IQ, promoting a sense of balance, reducing stress, increasing self-esteem, etc.
-
Feel motivated, excited, and prepared during their lesson to be able to easily complete their practice at home.
Wunderkeys for Pre-Schoolers
“Music lessons can help children as young as four show advanced brain development and improve their memory.” (The Canadian Journal; Sept. 20, 2006)
The WunderKeys™ 30 minute one-on-one weekly lessons takes preschool children with no musical experience on a magical journey where they acquire the piano skills, keyboard awareness, and rhythmic understanding they need for a successful future at the piano.
An encouraging first experience in piano lessons is critical to a student’s future musical enjoyment. Every aspect of the WunderKeys™ program has been carefully designed and tested to create an engaging, constructive, positive, and FUN learning environment.
All-encompassing piano lessons means the preschool students will participate in five different and unique activities during their weekly lesson time. This ensures your developing musician remains focused, engaged, and happy.
The developmental abilities of children ages 3 - 5 are very different than children 6 and older. The majority of other piano method books are created for students age 5 to 6. There are many different concepts that preschool students need to grasp before jumping into “traditional” piano pieces. Therefore, WunderKeys™ preschool piano lessons are spent exploring the piano in ways the student is developmentally capable.
All lessons are geared towards having your child understand everything they will need to know before being able to read notated music. WunderKeys™ duets allow students to play “real pieces” along with their teacher, ensuring success and enjoyment. It is the perfect way to lead into a mainstream book/series…And a life of musical enjoyment.
