About this pro

Melissa T. Music Lessons are fun! Students are engaged through games, videos and music. I provide private in-home piano and vocal lessons for beginners of all ages. Melissa T. Music Lessons is especially passionate about building confidence and achieving goals. It's never too late to learn a new skill and you're never too young to get started! Hope to hear from you soon!

Over the years, I have seen a timid singer turn into a confident and amazing singers. I have seen students who have never read any music become fluent in reading music. I love seeing the work put into reaching goals!

I started taking lessons from Melissa because I had always wanted to sing in the choir, but for various reasons I wasn’t able to. I knew that I needed to take lessons to build up my confidence for the audition and work on my technique. When I met with Melissa for my first lesson, she was so down to earth and patient. I think it took me like 10 minutes to sing in front of her! I was so nervous, but she simply smiled and said, “You’re really brave.” That moment really helped me to find the courage to sing! Her continued encouragement throughout our lessons was so vital! And after taking her 4 week course, I auditioned for the choir. I was nervous, but once I completed the audition, I found out that I had been accepted onto the choir- a desire fulfilled! Her lessons are solid and easy to follow! If you need to work on your technique and/ or build confidence, I definitely recommend that you work with Melissa! I had a great experience and I hope to come back in the Fall!

Melissa's lessons are creative and really engaging to all ages. I love the dedication and passion she clearly has for teaching music. My kids have learned so much and grown in just the short time we have been with her.

Melissa is excellent at what she does. My 3 year old son loves coming to his piano lesson. Melissa is very patient with him and is an all around great person. My son and I always look forward to our Thursday evening with Melissa. I can't wait till he masters the piano.

She's so attentive, affirming and engaging with my little ones (2 & 4yrs). You can tell she knows her stuff, and is super creative about redirecting and keeping them excited about the process/throughout the lessons.

My daughter is a high energy creative child that has enjoyed learning how to have fun playing piano while developing the skills to sitting still and learn a recital piece. Ms. Melissa has a way of encouraging her to be spirited and redirect her energy to have fun learning piano. She is gaining the knowledge of reading the notes and the fundamentals of music while developing the skill to play by ear as well. We feel blessed with Ms. Melissa as not only our piano teacher but a all around music teacher.

Ms. Melissa T, is VERY talented, patient and trustworthy. She is a woman after God's heart. Her unique skills and joy for music allowed my daughter to have fun while learning to play the piano. It was hard to get my 2 year old daughter away from the piano after her lesson was over. I will DEFINITELY recommend her.

My 6 year old daughter takes lessons with Melissa and we could not be happier with the overall experience and how well she’s learning the piano. Melissa’s patience and ability to teach piano is incredible. My daughter is progressing well wih her lessons and most of all she enjoys it and I attribute that to Melissa.

Working with a Melissa T. Music has been phenomenal. Not only is Melissa an accomplished singer and musician, she’s also an excellent teacher. She’s helped my daughter become confident in learning specific songs as well as learning music theory. Melissa is giving her the tools she needs to master song writing with music and we couldn’t be more grateful.
