Take Theory Piano Lessons in United States as Teacher Decides, page 3

I have over 40 years of teaching experience, including 25+ years teaching private piano lessons. I have a room in my home I have specifically dedicated as my Music Studio. I always try to tailor the lessons to best meet where the student's knowledge level is when they begin the lessons, so as to help them best obtain the growth they desire as a musician. I welcome piano students ages 6 through adult, and voice students ages 10 through adult. Please contact me soon so we can begin your musical journey.

This is the place for you if you are serious about learning how to play piano or sing, or do both simultaneously. Mrs. Cathy Laizure has 28 years experience teaching/performing classical, jazz, sacred and pop piano/vocal music. Learn how to read music, chord charts, lead sheets and improvise. Want to write your own music? Learn how to create, structure and print your own originals. Interested in playing and singing? I can show you how! Interested in entering the worship scene? I have 20+ years experience as a choir/worship leader in churches all over the country. If you are willing to practice consistently on a quality instrument, I want to talk to you. Are you an aspiring vocalist preparing to compete or audition? I can help you prepare and accompany through advanced levels.
This isn’t quite what you had in mind? Want to learn for fun? Just trying it out? Want to learn guitar or ukulele? We have a network of teachers who can help you.
Mrs. Cathy Laizure’s philosophy: “I want to provide quality music education with proper technique. But, more importantly, I desire to build relationships with my students and help them succeed in music and life. At the same time, I want to have fun and offer a casual, relaxed environment where students can ask questions, make mistakes and learn from them all... And, lastly, make music an integral part of a lifetime.”
