1. Certified Royal Conservatory of Music Teacher with 28 years of experience

I am dedicated to helping your children achieve their musical goals. I studied with concert pianist Boris Zarankin on my ARCT level and the former RCM theory department head, Alexander Rappoport. Parents have told me I have great patience and students love my warm, friendly manner.

2. Proven track record of student excellence since the 1990’s.

Visit my testimonial page to see what parents and students are saying. Each year, a large majority of piano teachers lose 40-70% of their students. Piano Lessons Etobicoke has a proven track record of offering high quality piano and theory lessons resulting in a 90%+ student retention. Most students leave only when they go away to university.

3. An open-door policy for parents and siblings.

Parents are welcome to sit in on their child’s lesson at any time in a homey atmosphere. Siblings are also welcome to stay and engage in a quiet activity like working on homework, reading or playing on their device.

4. Piano lessons on an acoustic Heintzman Grand Piano!

There’s just nothing like the surround sound effect of a grand piano and the beautiful tone of a Heintzman piano adds depth to the music. Built in 1927 and refurbished in the 1990s, the piano is kept tuned to concert pitch and my students love playing on it.

6. Free annual recital with no student participation fees.

While many private piano teachers charge a recital fee, my recitals are always free.

Every parent wants to know how their child is progressing. The best way for a parents to understand if their investment in lessons is truly worthwhile is to hear their child perform in a recital. And it gets even better when parents compliment each other’s children!

7. Stickers and more stickers!

What young child doesn’t love to put a sticker on their completed piece to mark their achievement in a most colourful manner? Even the tweens quietly admit they still like to get stickers, especially the “cool” varieties.

9. Theory lessons with the same teacher

Many piano teachers don’t offer music theory lessons. Having studied with an excellent teacher from U fo T's Faculty of Music and the Royal Conservatory of Music,  I have always enjoyed teaching music theory. My students typically achieve First Class Honors on their Conservatory rudiments exams, and many of them use these grades to obtain a high school credit.

10. Conveniently located close to Highway 427, the QEW/ Gardiner Expressway

Piano Lessons Etobicoke is close to 3 major roads with many alternate routes accessible in case of construction or traffic jam hold-ups. Need to get some shopping done just before or after your children’s lessons? Sherway Gardens shopping mall and the shopping complex along North Queen are just a short drive away.
