Introduction: “I am comfortable teaching students at all levels— from Beginner to Advanced. I feel my most valuable quality as a teacher is patience. I like to create a warm, supportive atmosphere, and there is nothing more enjoyable for me than to see a student master a new technique. I like to immediately set my students on the road towards performing music that resonates with them personally. “

I have had four lessons with Susan so far. I have learned more in these four lessons then I previously learned in four months from another teacher. Susan has patience and is an excellent teacher. I now enjoy practicing because I am learning to read music and chords. I look forward to my practice sessions every week. Thanks Susan🙂🙂
