About Us

I provide piano/theory lessons, group UMT (Ultimate Music Theory) Club Classes, RCM Piano/theory examination preparation, as well as online lessons. I have various programs that I use such as WunderKeys, RCM, Alfred Premier, to name a few.

WunderKeys Program

How We Got Started

I started by delivering flyers to neighbourhood mailboxes; advertising in the community newspaper and networking with other teachers. I also made posters and brought them to various schools in the vicinity to hang up.

I am so tired of saying it will get better, and in the meantime most of my expenses haven’t been paid and am starting to lose services.  Food -what’s that?

I would only have the students come in on their own; no other family members. If I think sitting 6 feet away from a student and I have to keep getting up, I would rather wear a mask.  Parents can decide whether their child also wears a mask.  The student washes their hands before we start.  If a...

Unfortunately on most of the apps like Skype, Zoom, etc.  There’s always a bit of a delay, which is a bit of a drag.  It is for piano teacher as well.  I don’t know if you have tried FaceTime, Google Hangout, and there are more.  You might get lucky.   Might I suggest that you find some singing...

I am doing online piano lessons on Zoom.  I start tomorrow. I must say that it’s a bit difficult to get parents on board.  I don’t know why because they don’t have to drive to my Studio; wait until the lesson is over and then drive home.  More time for them.

Wow, those are some numbers.  I like the fact that people have a forum to connect with experienced people.   (more) Wow, those are some numbers.  I like the fact that people have a forum to connect with experienced people.
