Learning can be fun 

as well as hard work . Teaching a student requires effort from the student, the parent & the instructor.  As students see their progress, they are encouraged & begin to develop their own self discipline : until then a partnership between Parent  / Young Student & Teacher is very important for success. 

Learning in a comfortable environment is fun - some benefits of an independant piano studio include:

- Your instructor will be Ms Culpeper , a fully certified and experienced teacher , not a student teacher.  For advanced students who show an interest in teaching, Ms Culpeper has & will continue to coach & develop those skills - one graduate opened a studio in the USA.

- there are no conflicts in booking the 'piano room' with other teachers allowing for greater flexibility if lesson times need to be rescheduled.

-An understanding & fostering of a students unique learning style progresses with teacher consistency week to week & year over year. For advanced students, master classes can be arranged in conjunction with other certified teachers . A fresh set of ears can be helpful on occasion.

- and last but not least,  there are two kitties at the studio who endear themselves to many students .  ( If you have any concerns about animals in the studio, they can be discussed at or prior to the student interview .)
