I am passionate about teaching piano lessons. Have been a teacher for 19 years and lived in different countries. Some in Africa, some in Europe and past 4 years living my american dream. I love everything about meeting new students and sharing my professional experience and my know how with the instrument.

Stella is a very good teacher. She teaches my two daughters for about 3 months and the girls have had very positive results under her lessons. She mixes the Suzuki method with the traditional which gives the girls the possibility to also learn how to read the notes and play looking at the scores as well as learn to play by ear. We love her methods. More...

I found Stella online and wanted to try her services.
She is a professional and very friendly and she will give you all the right technical points to learn how to play the piano.
She is a 22 year experience teacher and I definitely recommend her to you or your kids. She has a lot of patience and she deals with the ages from 4-adults.
She can either come to you or you can come to her home or virtual class.
Definitely recommend her.

Stella is an amazing teacher. From the first moment when I called to enquire she was super good explaining how her lessons work, advising me on the proper piano to buy and after starting lessons she is super patient with teaching and actually cares about the students. She makes us feel as her own family which I love. More...

Stella not only taught me piano skills but also how to be patient and stay dedicated. Piano was not easy for me to learn and I took a very long time to learn my pieces but with Stella’s guidance I was able to learn them in the end.

Stella has been really helping me shape my music and my musicality with technique work and working on pieces that I really enjoy. The thing I like about Stella is she doesn't make you feel bad about your mistakes. She is really there to help you. She supports you and we laugh together when I make a bad move and she really helps me figure out what the pieces means and what it could mean to me in a way that focuses on the music. More...

"I had the pleasure of working with Stella's piano lessons, and I would rate my experience as a 4 out of 5. Stella is a knowledgeable and patient instructor who provided a well-structured curriculum.
Her teaching style is engaging, making the learning process enjoyable. I saw noticeable improvement in my piano skills during our time together.
The reason for the rating not being a perfect 5 is due to the scheduling process. It was somewhat rigid, and I had difficulty finding a time that consistently worked for me. However, the quality of instruction and the progress I made in my piano playing outweighed this minor inconvenience. I highly recommend Stella's lessons for anyone looking to enhance their piano skills."

Stella is a great teacher. She teaches my two children online and with 3 months in doing lessons my children could do pieces that are not easy. I totally recommend her. She is methodic and always communicating when something is happening or to coordinate lessons to our best convenience. More...

What do you love most about your job?
I love how encouraging it is to see the students reaching different milestones in their process of learning piano. Its great to see when they are dedicated to their practices how well they get to evolve.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I am a pianist by profession and i would perform a lot when growing up. So adviced by family to share my knowledge with people made me do it. And i have lived in different countries and worked in different environments and developed different abilities with that exposure.
Why should our clients choose you?
Because i am really good at what i do and I don’t do it for hobby. I am professional about it and with advising my clients on the best ways so they can reach a good result.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
I definetely can and lessons feels as if i am next to my students. With covid many teachers developed and extra ability to work online. Me included. Nowadays I don’t only work with students at the state i live in but out of state too.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
I always make sure i am healthy and with no fever or any other symptoms related to covid before going to their houses if lessons are in person, sanitize and wash my hands after every activity. Among other things.
Piano lessons
My lessons consist in helping the student develop first the basic skills and slowly incorporate it and advance them. I teach my piano lessons with two methods. The suzuki method which is great for younger children but also for adults that want to learn and i combine that with the traditional method. Why i combine those two? In the past i noticed that students would easily feel bored with the old method. And mixing it up with the suzuki method which allows students to play harder songs faster and challenges them to evolve fast is the key to stimulate more interest. I also teach music theory so the student can develop the ability to read the scores and effectively be at their best when trying to perform a piece.
