PIANO LESSONS

Note to busy parents:  I make house calls!

If you're looking for an experienced, creative piano teacher who will free up your schedule by traveling to you, you can contact me at redmond.music@gmail.com  , or call me at 352-336-6294.   (As part of my teaching service, I provide any music books you'll need for your lessons to save you the trip and simplify your life.  :)  You just reimburse me the same price you'd pay at the music store.)

I teach a well-rounded curriculum that includes some music theory (why we do what we do), ear training (eventually enabling the student to read music and play by ear), and songs that are a fun challenge to learn and enjoyable to hear. (We have children who practice piano, too!)

I emphasize different parts of this curriculum depending on the specific needs and desires of each student and his/her family, so talk with me about your goals for music! I am equipped to teach styles ranging from classical to the best of contemporary music (including reading chord symbols).

As a piano teacher, my special niche is showing interested piano students how to arrange hymns and praise songs to use in worship. Many people think you must be born with the ability to arrange music, but this is not true - it can be taught (and I really enjoy teaching it).

I can teach lessons in my home studio (tuition is $70/month), but the more popular option with my piano students has been for me to teach in their homes, freeing up their schedules. This is a particularly helpful option for homeschooling families, as students can take piano lessons as part of their school day without disrupting the teaching day for the rest of the family.

I teach in the Gainesville area, as well as in surrounding areas such as Ocala, Micanopy, Hawthorne, Keystone Heights, Melrose, Lake City, Starke, and Newberry. I do charge a travel fee to cover my time and expenses to come to your home. While piano tuition is per student, the travel fee is per home no matter how many lessons I teach there.
