I love my piano teacher! I came back to the piano as an adult after 8 years of childhood lessons. Bonnie is so understanding, patient, and amazingly talented. She is full of positivity, good tips and has really kept me motivated and progressing. She is a superior teacher who can work with any style of music. Her years as a professional pianist in a variety of styles really makes her flexible with me as my interests bounce around genres of music. I recommend her as a teacher for both adults who want to start or get back to the piano, and for children. More...

Yes. I have been teaching online for many years using the Zoom platform.
