Loralee is an outstanding piano teacher. My daughter looks forward to her lessons each week. Loralee’s engaging lessons strategically develop her piano skills and motivate her to practice without being asked. It has been amazing to watch her progress in her piano playing with Loralee.

Tim has been a great teacher, in my opinion. I’ve been working with him for about 7 months, as of the time of this review. I came to him as a beginner piano player, 42yrs old - no experience. Although I am considerably below the experience level of many of Tim's other students, he has developed a course method for me to get up to speed on basics. Here’s a list of things I appreciate about Tim’s lessons:
- He’s pretty patient during lessons when I’m not getting something (probably the most critical factor in a teacher)
- He assigns appropriate amount and type of material for my skill level
- He provides good constructive criticism and holds me accountable for working out details in my assignments
- He shows me examples of how things in my assignments could, or should be played
- His ear is pretty incredible…hears notes and calls them out even when not looking at my hands.
- He provides some ear training in lessons
- He clearly knows a large amount of music theory, and is pretty good at explaining it as it relates to lessons
- His rates are reasonable
- His personality is pretty laid back
- When I started I couldn’t play any songs, but I think I have worked through 20 to 25 songs now.
