Get Your Free Trial Online Piano Lesson

Please answer a few questions and get your free trial! 

Online Piano Lessons I have a bachelor's degree in Music Education and a FL K-12 Music Teaching Certificate. I've been teaching piano since 2004 and have experience teaching ages four and up, in addition to experience teaching students with unique abilities. I teach private piano lessons over Zoom. I use two cameras, an overhead and a side view, so studentts can see my hands on the piano and my face. During the free trial lesson, I can help students set up their camera with a view from the side so I can help guide their posture. I also help students set up Original Sound for Musicians so they have the best sound on their device. I love to screen share games to help review music reading skills. We have two virtual recitals a year. We also have an awards ceremony with trophies I mail out for students who meet specific requirements.
Online Piano Lessons Lessons are the same price every month, pro rated throughout the year over eleven months. Current pricing is $116 a month for weekly thirty minute lessons and $232 a month for weekly hour long lessons. No payment is taken in June. The price per month includes 40 private lessons throughout the year. You can cancel at any time, as long as you cancel before the next auto payment. If the student has an advanced scheduled conflict with a lesson, they can arrange a make up lesson during one of three make up lesson weeks throughout the year. Flexible lesson scheduling is available in the summer. Picture of student with trophy. Picture of student with certificate. Picture of student performing in front of a Christmas Tree.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a piano or keyboard at home to take lessons?

 

Yes! A piano or keyboard with touch sensitivity and at least 61 keys is required for piano lessons. If you're looking for an affordable full size keyboard, the Yamaha p71 is a good choice or, try the Yamaha PSRE373 for a 61 key keyboard. Be sure to order your keyboard with a stand and a bench so it is at the right height.

 

What do I need in order to take online lessons?

 

A laptop or tablet with a good internet connection. Chromebooks can work in a pinch but they are not ideal for online lessons.

 

Can I get a free trial to see if online lessons work for me?

 

Of course! I offer free trials to new students so that I can help you set up your device correctly, show you how online lessons work, meet you and discuss your goals for piano, and demonstrate a few learning activities!

 

How often do I need to practice?

 

I recommend at least 15 minutes of practice five times a week for beginners, and more as students advance. I send a digital guided practice plan with detailed information for how and what to practice each week that you can print out weekly, or view on your device. Click the link for an example Guided practice plan.

 

What ages do you teach?

 

I teach ages four and up! Younger children are given a special curriculum meant just for them that teaches pre-reading skills and focuses on building fine motor skills. I screenshare games and plan activities to make learning fun for all ages. I have many games for every level and age of learner.

 

Do you teach students with special needs?

 

Yes, I aim to be inclusive to all student needs and meet each student where they are at! I have a degree in music education and a K-12 teaching certificate. I've also taken several courses in teaching students with disabilities and I can plan private lessons to meet each student's needs. I am also a direct pay provider for the Florida FES-Unique Abilities scholarship.

 

Do you offer recitals or awards programs?

 

Yes! I have two live virtual recitals a year (winter and spring). I also host productive practice awards annually that allow students to earn personalized trophies and medals based on the quality and quantity of their practice throughout the year. In addition, I offer other incentives throughout the year such as, the note rush challenge, the thirty song challenge, and incentives for completing individual goals.
