Piano Lessons in North Knoxville!
I am now accepting new piano students in North Knoxville for in home piano lessons. I teach beginning to early advanced students of all ages, but specialize in teaching kids.
I have a degree in Piano Performance (BA 2016, Humboldt State University) and have taught for five years. I teach lessons that emphasize a solid foundation of technique, rhythmic and note fluency, musicality, and performance psychology. I also try to make sure our lessons are very fun, and reflect the student’s interests! In addition to teaching piano, I have also taught many fun art camps and classes.
Currently, students must live in North Knoxville and have a piano or full sized keyboard at home. Current rates are: $25 for a half hour lesson, $45 for an hour (can be shared by siblings).

Images are from: my studio piano recital, spring break art camp (independently run), Forts Club, Mask Making Club, and Parade Club at The Expedition School, and “Science and Shadow” at Club Blvd Elementary, through CAPS and the Durham Arts Council.
Art Parties and Group Lessons!
I am also exploring the potential of leading super fun art parties and lessons for kids.
Potential themes for parties, ongoing art lessons, or one time group lessons: Wearable art and costume making, introductory sewing, fort building, cardboard building, introductory painting and sculpting, creating performances, giant puppetry and shadow puppetry, nature art, and more!
I was trained as an artist in a giant puppetry workshop in North Carolina, and currently study multimedia experimental arts as a graduate student at the University of Tennessee. I taught elementary art in Gloucester, VA for a semester, and have led numerous classes, camps, and workshops.
Please reach out if you’d like to host an art party or lessons at your home! I’d love to brainstorm ideas!!! :) Current availability: weekends and school breaks!
