About

To help students enjoy music making while becoming their best musical selves is my purpose as a teacher. Each student has a unique learning style, thus my teaching approach is flexible, adapted to meet their individual needs and goals while fostering a commitment to excellence. Whether the student is a beginner, intermediate or advanced learner, successful instruction requires enthusiasm, kindness, patience, and the necessary feedback so that students are well aware of the learning stage they’re experiencing at any given time. That’s the core of my teaching philosophy. As I count with more than ten years of international experience both as a performer and teacher in all levels of education, I confidently guide my students to succeed in the pursuit of their goals while enjoying the process. Looking forward to getting to know you and to become your piano teacher!

Dr. Ayala is teaching my four year old daughter piano lessons. She does a fantastic job making classes fun for children. She is very patient with my daughter and positive. I love how she brings such positive energy to each class. My daughter looks forward to lessons each week. I see her progress and if you book with Dr. Ayala I know you will see progress with your child as well.

FAQs

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I’m a doctor in piano pedagogy and I have a masters degree in piano performance. I count with 20 years of international piano teaching experience.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
I recommend to look for a teacher that have enough experience plus a flexible approach to meet the expectations of the students. I also recommend to ask for an interview - face- to- face or video call to see how the chemistry works. Always trust yourself and your instincts and you’ll find the best teacher!
