About
I teach piano and composition privately part-time, and work full-time in fundraising for a nonprofit. I hold a masters degree in piano performance from Webster University in St. Louis, as well as a Masters in Social Work from Boston College. I enjoy staying active outdoors by running, hiking, biking, etc.
Regarding piano lessons, I focus on techniques like scales and follow progressive lesson plans. However, I work my lessons around student interests to make lessons enjoyable, and allow students to work on anything (pieces/songs) that they want to learn. I teach primarily in classical styles.
I charge anywhere from $40-$60 per lesson depending on the duration/location. I would like to hear from you if you are interested in lessons.
Thank you,
Mike R.

Had Michael over for my 12 year old son's first pianolesson. My son was a little apprehensive. But he put my son at ease and they had a great lesson. He has a considerate and gentle focus that helped to bolster my son's interest in music and piano. My son looks forward to working with him again. I'm very happy to have Michael as our piano teacher. It's a great fit!

We love Mike! He's kind, laid-back, but focused. Our son has learned a lot in just a few months, and he loves playing!
