Kara is a great piano teacher. She is very patient with my 15 year old who has autism. She explains things very well to him, and he has come so far in two years with his piano! He enjoys learning new piano tunes, and playing piano for family and friends. He spends his free time whistling his favorite show tunes. When he learns these tunes in piano, he is so proud of himself!

I loved working with Kara. She was very professional, Responsive, punctual and her was of great quality. Kara seemed to value her work and take pride in what she does. When you enjoy what you do your better at it, and Kara really seems to love writing. I was very impressed with the outcome of my writing project and would definitely use her again. Kara is a very sweet and friendly lady, easy to talk to and she knows her stuff. Thank you Tutor Pros for hiring such excellent staff,.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Business costs can affect my estimate as well as special needs such as gas pricing for long drives. I’ve actually only once had to raise my prices by few dollars because it was a distant location and unique circumstances.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Do a telephone assessment first. Secondly, meet with the child or adult and plan lessons and curriculum tailored specifically to their needs.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
Certified Educational Consultant. Continual courses or directed reading on how to best teach subjects.
