    Ariel has a lot of experience and made it fun and easy to learn how to play the piano as an adult. If youve always wanted to play, but thought it was too late, its not. Ariel has a way of teaching that inspires and excites you to want to play no matter your age.

    Ariel is an excellent piano teacher, with years of experience in all types of music. And one of the best parts of learning how to play piano with Ariel is that she makes it FUN! She has a way of teaching that makes you want to practice, want to learn different styles of music, and has brought me to a level where I never imagined I could play. No matter what your age, I would highly recommend Ariel Basham. You will enjoy every minute of it.

    Frequently asked questions

    I use several method books, and that has to do with the ability and personal interest.  After getting through the beginning of reading I add several books depending on the student/ or parents interest. It can be classical, pop, Christian, jazz, broadway, or what you want. I have even used Chinese music. A lot of young ones want to play the music of video games, Harry Potter. You get the idea. If you don't like the music, it's had to learn.

    I majored in music in college at the University of Maryland. I have been playing and performing from the time I was 6. I love teaching. I have been teaching for also 50 Years. I'm interested in how people learn. I want a student to learn to read music which opens a new world to them.
