About
I do one on one lessons at my piano studio in Olyphant. I studied under the late Anne Vanko Liva, went to Marywood University for a music and art degree and have been teaching since 1981. The students are involved in many things throughout the year to keep motivation high. For interested students, this includes a Gold Cup Festival, Dorothy Sutton Performance Festival, National Guild Piano Playing Auditions and also prepare students to try out for Carnegie Hall.
I love to see students so proud when they learn new things! The sense of accomplishment they feel makes every minute worth it!

Miss Lisa is a great teacher. She has taught all three of my children. She makes piano fun but she is tough when she needs to be. I really appreciate that they participate in a few competitions each year. My kids have to prepare for competition and then perform the skills they have learned. I highly recommend Miss Lisa!

I consider Miss Lisa to be the best of the best. As a professional musician myself, it was important to me that my children receive the highest quality piano instruction. She is that rare teacher who has excellent piano skills and methods, but is still able to put instruction at child’s level. If you want to see your child progress in their piano playing, Miss Lisa is the right teacher!

My daughter just started lessons a few weeks ago and she already has such an understanding of reading music. Miss Lisa is a talented teacher that makes it easy and fun to learn piano.

You won’t find a more attentive teacher, able to differentiate for each child’s needs. My son has progressed very quickly thanks to Miss Lisa. She focuses on the student’s ability and attention and adjusts her teaching style as necessary. We are lucky to have found such a great teacher.
