I hired Suzanne to teach me and my kids how to play the piano. She has thus far been a wonderful teacher. I've been very impressed with how she's managed my 6 and 8 year old through zoom meetings and how she's made virtual learning of the piano seamless. She's adaptive to each of our learning styles and has found the right balance of encouragement and constructive criticism to help us learn. We have very much enjoyed our lessons -- even my kids who were hesitant to take the lessons have found them enjoyable and look forward to them. I highly recommend her.

Details: 6 - 9 years old • No, the student cannot read music • No formal training • What the teacher recommends • Yes, the student has a piano • 30 minutes • Remotely (phone or internet)

Suzanne was absolutely amazing and very professional and consistent. She was thorough and gave me lessons to strengthen my vocal cords, she gave me homework (things I can do when I’m home) in order to perfect my tool. She is a lady that knows her business of teaching others. I would highly recommend her to anyone with a strong desire to sing to a higher level of performance.

Details: 45 - 64 years old • Yes, the student can read music • No formal training • Jazz • R&B • Musical theater • What the teacher recommends • Gospel • 45 minutes • At the pro’s location
