I’ve been teaching for almost a decade and love it! When students learn from Piano By Andrew, they are learning MUCH MORE than reading notes on a page. After all, music is creating, expressing, improvising, composing, collaborating, and HAVING FUN! Through group lessons, students collaborate with peers and learn from one another. Through games, learning theory takes on a life of its own. Through improvising and composing, students are creating and taking ownership of their learning.
My musical journey began at 7 years old and continued into college where I received an undergraduate degree in Piano Performance and Music Education. I’m truly grateful for the opportunities I had, as well as having supportive parents that made sure I practiced regularly. However, one thing that was lacking were opportunities to be creative, play by ear, improvise, and compose. It wasn’t until much later that I embarked on my journey of learning to play creatively. I believe it is SO important for today’s musicians to learn these skills; yet sadly such opportunities are missing from many traditional lessons. That’s why teaching creative skills is a core value of Piano By Andrew!
My experience as a public school music teacher has taught me the value of sharing the love of music with large groups of students. I love teaching groups of students so much that I decided to bring it into my piano studio! My students not only receive private lessons, but also participate in group lessons scheduled periodically throughout the year. I believe students gain so much from their group lessons by performing for each other, playing music games, and making lifelong friendships.
