Introduction

First, please note that I live in Clearwater, zip 33756, one mile south of downtown. I have 2 degrees in Music Education and especially enjoy teaching people to read music. (Note: A student needs to be able to read words.) I can also do some vocal coaching and accompany singers. I love helping people learn music and be able to achieve their musical goals. Music is such an important part of life!

My daughter and I started taking lessons with Marcia about a month ago and she had been a gift to our family! She's knowledgeable, patient, kind, encouraging, and accommodating and we're both learning a lot. She's a fantastic teacher and I'm so grateful we found her! Thank you Marcia!

Marcia is an excellent teacher! I recently began learning piano, and Marcia made the entire learning process informative, fun, and structured to where I could see marked improvement. Thank you again!

Marcia Powell is a fabulous teacher !She ensures that foundational skills are mastered. As an older student this was important for me. While I could read notes and play I didn’t have a solid music theory foundation. Marcia helped me tremendously to fully enjoy playing with confidence!
