private voice and piano lessons

Erica has been such a wonderful piano teacher. We first switched over to her (2022) when my son (age 6 at the time) was having some piano difficulties. I informed his previous teacher that he was starting to hate piano. He was resisting practicing and would whine constantly that it was just too hard. His previous teacher acknowledged my concerns but didn’t do much to try to figure out what we can do differently. When I brought my son over to Erica she assessed where he was - what he knew, understood and where he lacked. She discovered the problem and took him back to some basics he was missing. Once those gaps were filled in we didn’t have anymore issues. His last teacher had him moving forward in his books when some big foundational skills and knowledge were missing. Earlier this year (2023) I had my daughter begin piano lessons. She is 5. I am impressed by the progress my daughter has made in such little time. My daughter thinks piano is “fun.” I am utterly impressed in how Erica is able to bring piano learning to the appropriate level for the student. I can’t say enough great things about Erica. If I had more kids they would all go to her. I am so grateful she saved my son from quitting piano. I am delighted to see my daughter enjoy playing piano at such a young age and I’m thrilled to begin my piano journey again as an adult student. Lastly, I am happy we are going to be a piano playing family. -Diana
