Alexis' first goal as a piano teacher is to help you reach your own personal goals. Is your goal to be able to sight read music? Is it to be able to play one song in particular? Do you want to be able to accompany yourself as you sing? Whatever it is, Alexis creates lesson plans designated specifically for you!

Alexis has been studying piano for 15 years and has done a variety of classical, contemporary and jazz work. She has an Associate's Degree in Professional Music from the School for Music Vocations in Creston, Iowa where she has studied classical piano, jazz piano, classical voice, jazz voice, jazz arranging, classical music theory, aural skills, guitar and bass. Alexis has been a part of numerous ensembles over the years. She has had the opportunity to tour throughout the majority of the states and has had several notable performances. Being a part of several vocal jazz groups, she opened for The Real Group and Accent.

She recently finished up her Bachelor's Degree in Vocal Performance at Columbia College Chicago, and she continues to perform in the Chicago area alongside her band, The Do-Rights!

    She is excellent!. I am a 72 years old woman, I could not recognize a musical note or a score, did not have any experience with a key board an after a year I do recognize scores and I can play some tunes thanks to Alexis. She is marvelous. She is creative, imaginative, always patient. She finds a way to get through you and never lets you feel frustrated or not capable of doing the work. She is kind and fun to be with.

    Frequently asked questions

    No matter what their age, the first question I ask is"what are your piano goals?" The next question I ask is, "have you played piano before?"

    In most cases, students have never played before. I introduce them to proper piano technique, basic music theory and beginners sheet music. Over the course of the first few lessons, I determine how a student learns best, and what best captures their interest. Some students of mine just want to learn song after song for pure enjoyment, while others want to sing, play, and perform. Others are fascinated by the theory of music itself and we'll spend a large portion of the lesson studying that.

    I have been taking private piano lessons since the age of 8. I studied piano extensively at The School for Music Vocations in Creston, Iowa then finished my Bachelors Degree in Vocal Performance at Columbia College Chicago.

    One of my own teachers suggested that I start teaching private lessons. Then, another teacher of mine passed along some students to me and everything just fell into place. Before I knew it, teaching became my primary form of work as a musician.

    I have worked with beginners and intermediate level piano students ranging from 4 years old to 78 years old.
