I teach private piano lessons Levels 1-6, with a commitment to developing students’ piano playing skills and love for music in a nurturing environment. I am a graduate of Prairie Bible College and Pensacola Christian College, with a Level 10 Piano Certificate from Royal Conservatory of Music (Toronto) and over 35 years teaching experience, especially classical and church music. I use Faber Piano Adventures as the basic curriculum, which presents a variety of musical styles through fun pieces and duets with teacher. Additional supplemental “favorite” pieces are encouraged, according to the student’s interest. There are two opportunities a year to perform in recitals. Fee is $95/month for 30 minute lesson (young beginners) or $130/month for 45 minute lesson (older beginners and intermediate).
Requirements:
A piano or keyboard at home for practice.
Focused practice 20 min/day ages 5-7 and 30 min/day ages 8+.
Faber Piano Adventures Lesson, Technique, Performance and Theory books, according to appropriate level.
A parent is required to be present and observe lessons for children ages 10 and under, and to provide guidance during home practice time.
Welcome! I look forward to the opportunity of sharing my love of music with your student ages 5-14. I've been playing piano for 9 years, teaching piano lessons at Firmly Planted for 3 years, and am currently majoring in music at Portland Bible College. Piano lessons will be held at the Center on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays between 1-5pm. As a fun way to end the year, all students are welcome to participate in and invite their families to an end of year piano recital I have each year for all my students. This is really an enjoyable time for the students to show what they've learned and for their families to get to watch them perform!
My name is Summer St. John, I’m 21 years old and have been teaching piano for almost seven years. I started learning piano at home when I was six, and started taking lessons at age nine. Since then I have not only developed a love for the instrument itself but sharing the things I have learned through private lessons. I teach beginner-intermediate, note-reading, and chord charts, as well as how to play by ear. $25 per 30 min lesson
Requirements:
Students are required to complete each assignment daily as well as a piano/keyboard to practice on at home.
We will be learning about western expansion through the eye of Laura Ingles and the Little House Picture Book series. Each week we will read a Little House Picture Book, learn about life in a simpler time, and do a craft. We will have fun trying out a little "rustic" cooking, (churning butter for example) and complete a pioneer times lap book.
Requirements:
Ability to cut, paste, small handy crafts, and minimal writing.
