    I have much gratitude for my dear friend who recommended Scott Lingo as a piano teacher for our daughter Samantha. It has been a privilege and wonderful experience to have him as her music instructor. She continues to develop musically and has learned so much from him over the years. We are grateful for the guidance he has graciously provided for Samantha and his other students. He motivates young people to do their very best. His patience, positivity, encouraging demeanor, and methodical teaching practices are key elements for why his students stay with him once they start lessons. Samantha will be starting her 6 th year of piano and her 2 nd year of guitar. She looks forward not only to her lesson, but to practicing each day. It has been awesome to see how excited she has become about making progress and improving as a musician. Scott teaches the whole child. He builds their self-concept, strengthens their character, and helps each student to develop a strong work ethic. Working with Mr. Lingo has helped Samantha to better understand the meaning of responsibility, accountability, and taking ownership for her learning. I am looking forward to see her grow and improve under the leadership of her wonderful teacher for years to come! She has many more happy musical moments ahead because of Mr. Lingo’s dedication and commitment to educating young people through music! Our whole family is so thankful! He has been a tremendous blessing to his students and their families!

    For the last 6 months, Scott has been my six-year olds piano teacher. Scotts patience, grace, and consistent style have allowed my child to flourish in learning to play the piano. Mr. Lingos method has proven to be motivational, realistic, and grounded in good teaching practice that sets up the child for success not only in music, but also in other aspects of life which require consistent, incremental work.

    Frequently asked questions

    I always like to assess where the student is currently with regards to skills in both reading and repertoire by having them play songs they already know and trying out new songs to find the best fit to be successful with the methodology.  If they are beginning students, I assess how quickly they will learn based upon age and ability and recommend a well suited curriculum tailored to their needs.  

     

    I am a Pennsylvania certified Music Teacher K-12 as well as Association of Christian Schools International certified All Levels Music and Bible Teacher Professional.  I have a Bachelor of Science in Bible and a Masters of Arts in Bible from Lancaster Bible College and Graduate School.  All of my required clearances are maintained.

    I do have a standard pricing system.  Please contact me for current pricing.

    I, Scott Lingo, began my journey as a musician when I was in first grade taking piano lessons. In fourth grade I began to learn percussion and played in the band through middle school. In eighth grade I participated in the Association of Christian Schools International fine arts festival attaining an Excellence Award in Piano Performance. By the time I reached high school I was singing and accompanying in traveling choirs, giving recitals, and composing music. As a senior, I received a “Superior” award in Piano Composition.  I then continued on to college to become a certified music teacher K-12.  

    I have taught English as a second language in Spain and sang in a choir that debuted Mendelssohn's Elijah in Castilian Spanish in Spain (though I myself do not speak Spanish fluently).

    I have taught music K-12 in a variety of settings since 2000 both full time and part time as well as a substitute teacher in public schools and Christian schools including Lancaster Mennonite High School and New Danville, Locust Grove, Dayspring Christian Academy, Linville Hill Mennonite, Lampeter-Strasburg, Penn Manor, Solanco School District, Manheim Township, School District of Lancaster, York City School District, Pequa Valley School District, Elizabethtown, Christian School of York, and Milton Hershey School.

    Not only do I have experience teaching various other subjects as a substitute teacher, but also have held the title of Homebound Instructor and Instruction in the Home Teacher for Solanco and Lampeter-Strasburg School Districts working with special needs students.  

    Definately find a teacher who is encouarging even when you make mistakes.  Only through mistakes can we learn to get better.
