Scott J.

Lisa is an exceptional piano teacher; I have had teachers for both piano and guitar for a number of years and she is the best among all of them. She does a great job at breaking down pieces which are often complex for me into manageable chunks, and at guiding me on how to interpret them. Without her guidance I would certainly not be as far along as I am now. I strongly believe she will be able to help me reach my goals on the instrument moving forward, and I can easily recommend her to anyone looking to learn classical piano in the Boulder area.
