Suki is an inspiring teacher that encouraged me time after time to go out of my comfort zone and explore my possibilities further than only playing from sheet music.

Frequently asked questions

What is your typical process for working with a new student?

I have them play their favorite piece for up to four minutes.

We discuss their past experience playing and what their goals are- as well as how much time they can devote to playing. I ask them what kind of music do they like and want to learn.

I give them a general plan of how we will proceed with room for questions.

We begin to implement the plan with a practice schedule.

The ultimate goal is to learn a piece they feel comfortable performing.

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?

I have been teaching for many many years in many types of school settings as well as privately. I have had all types of students who are seeking different things- and have different goals. I cater to the learning needs of each student.

Do you have a standard pricing system for your lessons? If so, please share the details here.

I usually charge $60-$70.00 per lesson for an hour lesson. I am flexible about price- I can also be flexible about length of lesson... as well as price I provide discounts if two months are booked in advance. I usually have a 24 cancellation rule- I need to know in advance if they can't make a lesson.
