About
I am a classically trained private music teacher and have been teaching since 1996. I have my bachelor's degree in music education and teach ages four to adult.
I love music and want to share my love with other people by teaching them how to play. I teach mainly classical, however I can teach all genres, ages, and levels. I teach piano and voice.

Our girls take pianolessons with Amy, and we couldn't be happier. She's patient, encouraging, and has a real gift for meeting each child where they are, keeping lessons fun while still building solid fundamentals. Amy celebrates the small wins and knows exactly when to push a little harder. We recommend her services without hesitation.

We have had such a wonderful experience with Amy! She is an amazing teacher who does a fantastic job working with kids and helping them grow their confidence and skills. The girls have shown incredible improvement through their lessons, and even more importantly, they have developed a true love and appreciation for playing the piano.
We are so grateful for her patience, encouragement, and ability to make each lesson enjoyable and rewarding. We would highly recommend her to any family looking for a talented and caring piano teacher

Thank you so much Alexis! Your son has been such a pleasure to work with. He clearly loves the piano and I'm glad that I'm able to help him grow his musical abilities.

My two children and myself have been taking lessons from Amy for the past year and a half. She works wonderfully with young children and adults. She is very patient and we enjoy our pianolessons with her. She also does a great job with organizing 2 recitals every year.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
$40/half hour
$55/45 min.
$70/60 min.
I have a Referral Program! What this means is that any student of mine, who refers someone to me and they start taking lessons, then the student who made the referral will get a free lesson!
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
The 1st lesson is the "getting to know you" lesson where I find out about their musical history, involvement, and progress. What are their strengths and weaknesses.
If the student has no current knowledge, then we just start from the very beginning with a lesson book that is correct to their age group.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have been teaching piano lessons since 1996.
I have been teaching singing lessons since 2008.
I have a Bachelor degree in Music Education from West Chester University.
I learned piano privately starting in 1992 through 2010 by teachers went to the New England Conservatory of Music and Julliard.
I was taught piano pedagogy at West Chester University.
Over the years I have used the methods that I was taught and added my own experiences to create my own personal method which utilizes everything I have been taught over the years.
