Introduction: I offer my creativity, having written three published teaching pieces for piano . I'm able to improvise in more than one style but my speciality is jazz. I've taught jazz piano from beginning pieces through improvising jazz standards. I also have a good ear which allows me to take a beginner level arrangement of a piece and play my own version which is closer to the original even if the original was written for orchestra . Also you get my 29 years of experience , treating my student as an equal , and patience. I'm very persistent . I keep on a student until he or she reaches that goal whether it be clapping a new rhythm or mastering two measures of a piece . I enjoy working with people. When I'm interacting with different personalities it challenges me to find new ways to teach my craft. I enjoy when I have successfully taught a student a new skill or piece which helps them grow as a musician . I enjoy playing for students and receiving praise for it . I enjoy using my ability to create new jazz solos or exercises . I enjoy working with children with their sense of fun and spontaneity .

My son started taking piano lessons from Dave Biel when he was 6. He was small and needed a phone book to sit on to reach the keys. He is now 13 and still taking lessons from Dave. Dave is a wonderful teacher, very encouraging and positive. He has a great sense of humor and a teaching style that relates well with his students and keeps them engaged. There are opportunities, if student are interested, to play in recitals and the WSMA juried competition each year. These are chosen by the student if they want to participate. Dave loves music and is an accomplished musician as well as a teacher. We have enjoyed listening to our son's progress over the years! We highly recommend him!
