An Experienced Piano Teacher You Can Depend On

Learn how to play songs you love using the chords and drills I give you. The age range of my students has been: 23–74, both men and women.

I took piano lessons for many years growing up. I later was a jazz performance major at North Texas State University (now UNT) in Denton. So between the two, and years of teaching privately, I found what really works helping people learn how to play piano. A huge factor is you must have fun while learning! This is why I spent over 5 years building my library of hit songs for teaching and sharing with students, which I continually add more songs to. It contains over 1400 songs. These songs are mostly from the ‘60s–‘90s but also cover newer songs by artist like Bruno Mars, Ed Sheeran, and Charlie Puth. The genre of songs available for my students includes Pop, Rock, Country, Christian, Motown, and Christmas songs. There is "no charge" for these songs! I have my students play along with their favorite artists/songs. This accomplishes two very important dynamics in learning how to play piano. It helps you learn both different rhythms and inversions (different styles of songs and different ways to play the same chord). This way, you have fun learning how to play piano. Singing is encouraged but not necessary to learn how to play piano.
