What I Offer
In-Person Lessons
Piano lessons for all ages in my home studio or online in the comfort of your home. Not only will you learn to play the piano, you’ll have fun! You’ll receive a well-rounded education through a variety of creative learning activities and games. Connect with other students through performance opportunities and other enrichment activities. All you need is a full-size (88 keys) weighted digital piano or acoustic piano to start!
New Piano Students Join Group Lessons!
Group lessons are the ideal start to piano lessons. One of the biggest challenges parents have is getting their kids to practice at home.
The small group lessons combine personalized, teacher instruction with technology to produce a unique and exciting learning experience. Students feel like they are playing a game (they are assessed by technology at home), they have fun, and are more motivated to practice at home. The best part of this is technology is that students don’t need to wait an entire week for the teacher to listen and pass their pieces. As a result, they excel, and learn many more pieces per week compared to the traditional teaching method.
Piano Express is a unique system that has started to expand in Canada! This is the only studio in the Durham Region of Ontario to offer this innovative approach!
During the class, they will spend half the time with Assessment (students try to pass as many pieces as possible, with each individual progressing at their own pace, and the teacher checking on their posture and technique) and half the time with Discovery (students collaborate, focusing on theory, improvisation, ear-training, technique, sight-reading). The fee for the group class is the same as the private 30 min lesson, so students receive more instruction time per week for the same price.
When students finish the six levels (6 books), they will have a solid foundation with the fundamentals and are ready for private instruction at a level equivalent to the conservatory Level 2.
Group classes for 4-5 year olds (Kindergarten-aged) are 45 min. long and are adapted for their stage and development. We will be using a combination of Piano Express and Piano Adventures method books, with more “off-bench” time exploring music in age-appropriate ways!

What People Say
Hannah was always encouraging and positive when teaching our daughters. In addition, Hannah was also very accommodating due to our busy activity schedule. Our girls enjoyed the mix between classic and pop songs. Hannah utilized various techniques to maintain the girls’ interest in piano (ie. musical hangman, prizes for 100 days of practice, stickers for passing a song). We appreciate your time and patience over the past 3 years!
Gary & Patricia (parents)
Hannah is not only my favorite teacher but also a good friend. Since I was 4-year-old, I have been looking forward to going to my piano class on each Saturday. I never thought that piano has this much fun and also could bring happiness to the others. There are some old ladies who live in the seniors building have enjoyed watching my piano playing (practice) so much. They said I have brought them so much fun and happy times. Thanks so much Hannah! You are the best!
Joshua (student)
As a fellow colleague and piano teacher, I admire Hannah’s ability to adapt to changes and get involved. She is generous in sharing the information she discovers about the latest pedagogical ideas, and inspires her students to explore music learning beyond the piano keys.
