Hello, I am Donna, Online Piano Teacher for professional & retired women who used to play or have always wanted to. I have been where you are: Needing a creative outlet. Sometimes, people think, “I'm busy. I will wait until I retire.” Big mistake! Tomorrow isn't promised. Do you have time for things that enrich your life and help you enrich others? Yes? Then why wait decades? 🤔 Piano is a godsend for dealing with stress and providing a sense of accomplishment filled with fun challenges! I love supporting you because "Your talent is God's gift to you. What you do with it is your gift back to God." -- Leo Buscaglia. What's different about me? I grew up in a home where Play By Ear was respected. While taking formal, classical piano lessons, I also enjoyed teaching myself music I loved by ear. As a result, Play By Ear remains one of my favourite musical approaches along with traditional methods. You get a rewarding feeling from figuring out how to play your desired music because it comes from you! Play By Ear is an essential part of music education that’s trending! In a 21st century way, I help you discover your musical ability. Yes, You Have It! With me your facilitator/teacher/coach/accountability partner, learn faster. Have creative lessons including: improvisation, sing along/accompany others via chords/lead sheets, become musically literate -- read music, etc. Enhance your overall creativity & well-being. Explore, Experiment, & Enjoy music; get interactive lessons tailored to you. Learn a diverse range of music; take exams if you wish. My teaching methods focus you on newfound abilities to build confidence & ability. Learn in a psychologically safe space; make mistakes and see their value as part of the creative, learning process. My training includes years of private lessons; 20+ years playing piano; on-going learning & development to stay well-versed in current teaching trends; covering for my teacher; supporting church services & experience teaching beginner levels for adults & children during their first few years (absolute beginner to Grade 3). Testimonial: "I was impressed on how easily and effectively I was able to play a Christmas jingle in such a short amount of time. I didn't really have fun experiences learning the keyboard in school music classes, but I enjoyed this experience." -- Andy It's not too late!
