I’ve often debated giving out stickers but there are those few students that LIVE for stickers. This is proof! 🤣

During lessons this week, two of my students surprised me with original compositions. Some students are fine with playing the notes on the page, and others would prefer to write their own. I love it when a method book just doesn’t cut it and I have to teach the student in front of me.

We had a great turn out today at the Twin Cities Piano Teacher Meetup. We will make it a monthly thing and would love to have any music teachers join us. Have them get in touch with me for details. Thank you for showing me the importance of community amongst independent music teachers.

1st Day of Fall Piano Teaching
Year 27 of Teaching for me.
Every year I forget how much energy it takes to teach a full load of private lessons.
A full load for me is about 30 lessons per week.
Today I had 8 students in 5 different homes.
Even though I’m tired by the end of the day, I wouldn’t trade this job for anything. I find it very rewarding and love all my students and their families.

I’m beyond excited to introduce you to Welcome Mat Music’s newest piano and harp teacher.

Hannah is originally from Tucson, AZ. She began her piano studies at age 4 and her harp studies at age 6. Music was her passion from a young age, and she went on to study music in college.

She has served as an accompanist, symphony musician, chamber musician, and solo performer.

Hannah has been teaching music for the past 11 years, both in school settings, and in private lessons. She taught students ages 5-55 in their homes for 5 years, and most recently served as a K-8 music teacher.

She believes in fostering each student’s unique ability while encouraging their confidence and love of music.

Hannah is seeking new students starting in September. Book your spot today. Message me for more details.

I’m getting ready to teach my very first preschool group piano class tomorrow.

I’m feeling pretty excited about it and not too nervous or worried - which is not my usual.

I took voice lessons from specifically for the purpose of gaining confidence in singing in front of a group. I also took a class from on teaching preschoolers. Both of these experiences gave me the confidence to say, “I can do this!”

Side note, I probably could have done it to begin with, but I learned a lot of things I wasn’t expecting from the lessons and classes, so it was all a part of my process.

The class will be held on Mondays at 11am and Tuesdays at 1pm at .
It is for ages 4-6.
Cost is $249 for 8 weeks.
