Hi, I'm Hannah. I'm a musician, pianist, and online music teacher dedicated to discovering and creating meaning through music and helping others do the same.

 

Whether you’re interested in learning how to express yourself musically, play covers of your favorite songs, perform classical music or write your own songs - I’d love to work with you in your journey towards musical proficiency.

I approach teaching music like a language, with an emphasis on understanding what music communicates beyond the notes and rhythms. I work with each student to develop the technical and mental skills necessary to express themselves articulately, along with a theoretical understanding of how meaning is created through music.

Private lessons are designed around each student’s interests and goals. For some this looks like a more traditional method of learning the piano; for others, a free-form improvisation and theory-based approach.

​

My desire is to help you find musical fluency whether you like to play others' music or your own, whether you read music or prefer to play by ear. There are an infinite number of ways to create music — I want to help you progress in the way that feels most natural to you.

I like how she explains things intuitively so that a person like me who does not have any prior knowledge in music can understand easily. Lessons are very diverse and flexible. I got to learn music theory, sight-reading, and even improv/songwriting. I feel like I learned a lot in this short period of time.
