I couldn’t have asked for a better tutor than Ms. Rodriguez! She has been teaching my son piano twice a week, always with incredible patience and understanding. I’m so grateful to have found her, and the fact that she comes to our home for lessons is just perfect. Thank you, Ms. Rodriguez!

Ms Rodriguez has been teaching our daughter for about a year now, and she's been wonderful. Absolutely love that she comes to the house for lessons (which saves so much time!) and I've appreciated her flexibility when we've needed it.

Frequently Asked Questions
!
What is the right age to start piano lessons? Students 5 and up may enroll in piano lessons, depending on their readiness. Adults are also welcome to enroll.
What kind of piano do I need? An acoustic piano that is tuned at least once a year is highly preferred. Mrs Rodriguez will be happy to recommend a piano technician to you so you can have your piano tuned when is needed. A digital piano is acceptable if it meets the following requirements: 88 keys, touch sensitive, weighted keys Sustain/damper pedal Bench of an appropriate height Keyboard stand (not a table or desk) Located in an area of the home that promotes consistent practice.
What will I learn? Lessons are tailored specifically to each student's individual needs and goals and include a variety of activities such as: Reading music. Playing music from different styles, including classical, pop, country, praise and worship, jazz, etc! Understanding music theory, sight-reading, ear training, harmonization. Composing simple songs. Using technology to enhance lessons and practice time. Learning and reviewing through hands-on games and other activities. Learning to practice efficiently so students can become independent musicians all through the Faber Piano Adventures and the RCM methods. Most of all, lessons are structured to be enjoyed and to have FUN!
How many lessons should I take per week? Students typically take one or two lessons weekly. Lessons option include 30-minute lessons, 45-minute lessons and hour lessons. 30-minute lessons are generally suggested for first and second year students, and once students reach their third year, they are usually ready for 45-minute lessons. Lessons are available 6 days a week, Monday through Saturday subject to availability.
How much should I practice? Practicing piano is like other homework that expected to be done daily. Students should practice at least 5 days a week for: • 5-7 years old: 15-20 minutes • 8-10 years old: 20-30 minutes • 11-14 years old: 30-40 minutes • 15 and older: 40-60 minutes Students should write their daily practice record on the assignment notebook. A timer is a good piece of equipment to place on your piano. A floor or piano lamp protects your vision. If the student's feet don’t reach to the floor, a footstool is necessary. Progress does not happen in one weekly 30 minute lesson. Work and practice outside of lessons are necessary for growth.
What is the tuition fee? The tuition fee reserves the time slot for the student from September to June. This payment includes much more than the lesson time spent with each student: Preparing for each lesson, purchasing books, creating worksheets and games, professional experience and continuing education, recitals. Piano studio, equipment, and website fees and maintenance, memberships in professional organizations that provide educational opportunities for teachers. Transportation expenses for in-home lessons are included in this fee. Sight-reading and lending library materials, administrative duties, and so much more! Two payment options are available to choose from for your convenience: Monthly rate paid in advance or Payment for the full term. Contact Mrs Rodriguez for pricing and availability.
How do I communicate with my teacher? Parent-teacher-student information will be sent via email. You’ll need a valid email account that you check regularly. Email and Whats App are the best ways to reach Mrs Rodriguez during the day for lesson cancellations. TVs, cell phones, laptops, and other electronic devices must be silenced during lessons.
