Introduction

Located now in Westbury, NY. Hello! My name is Carol-Anne and I am a full-time performer and music teacher with a passion for spreading the joy that music creates. I have 8 years of experience teaching piano and voice lessons to anyone from 5 years old to adult learners. I enjoy teaching all skill levels and walks of life, and tailor my teaching to the experience and goals of each individual student. My sincere hope is to give you the ability to continue your love and practice of music throughout your life. My expertise in music includes being a full-time performer. I am always practicing what I preach! I perform piano/vocal entertainment mainly (occasionally also bass and drums), and am comfortable with anything from being background music to a party to providing an interactive, sing-along request show to singing a high energy dance party! I have 10 years of experience as a professional church singer and pianist, 7 as a dueling piano player (via Howl at the Moon, Flying Ivories, Savage Pianos and more) and 4 with wedding bands in the NYC area (Dane Wright Band via Hank Lane Music). Originally from Annapolis, Maryland, I have a Bachelor of Music degree in vocal/piano performance from James Madison University. I currently am teaching out of my home in Westbury, your home if you are nearby, or online via Skype or whatever is your preferred program. I would love to accompany you on wherever your musical journey takes you!

Carol-Anne is my 10 year old daughter's second piano teacher and my daughter is so happy working with Carol-Anne. Carol-Anne is very professional at the same time engaging and enthusiastic about teaching. I certainly very happy too as my daughter likes to practice much more now and I see how she is developing a real love for music thanks to Carol-Anne teachings.

I have had a couple weeks of lessons so far with Carole-Anne and they are going well. I emailed and chatted with a few piano teachers but found that Carole-Anne was the best fit for style of music and instructional technique. She is a great combination of supportive, motivational, and is able to move each learning session along based on ability. Everyone starts at a different point and learns at different rates but I get the sense that Carole-Anne picks up on this and is able to adjust and tailor her teaching to whomever she is instructing. Looking forward to progressing and playing piano for years to come because of her!
