Piano Programs
Offered
The exploration of music through piano lessons will help your child with focus, independence, creativity, discipline, self-esteem, and confidence!
Depending on the child and parent, the student can learn for leisure or towards Royal Conservatory of Music Piano Exams. There are opportunities during the year to perform in piano recitals or festivals or competitions if interested. |
I offer lessons that are tailored to each students' need and I desire to inspire my students' to be creative, expressive, and confidant piano players!
Throughout the last several years, I have found that these methods for teaching Beginner's piano lessons as being the most successful and effective. I have a lot of fun teaching with these books and I am sure you will enjoy them too. |
I specialize in teaching piano to all BEGINNERS (3 years and up) and up to Grade 5 RCM.
3-5 years old Piano Program

This program is created specifically with preschoolers in mind who are new to music and the piano. Each lesson is a private one-on-one lesson with parent(s) in attendance for 30 minutes each lesson. The lesson will consist of 5 different activities to keep the preschoolers attentive, engaged, and having fun! There are approximately 30-33 lessons in total for the program. After completion of the program, students can begin with My First Piano Adventures or Piano Adventures.
Please note: While this program is catered for ages 3-5 years old, I do believe this program is best suited for children between ages 3.5 to 4.5 years old.

Our Reggio Emilia inspired learning program includes “provocations” (children’s interest-based activities), story time, singing, dancing, music, and an online portfolio (children’s artwork, remarks, discussions, and photographs) at the end of the term.

Our Reggio-inspired or emergent based workshops are great for preschoolers who love to explore, play, and create through new senses, materials, and art mediums. Children have the opportunity to engage with other children, build on fine motor skills, and learn different ways of expressions through art, music, and play! Parent participation not required.
