Why Choose
Rachel Beard Piano Studio?

In our studio, each lesson is individualized to cater to the abilities, needs, and aspirations of each student. We genuinely believe that a strong foundation is essential to learning efficiently and advancing smoothly in piano. Our method places a great emphasis on the fundamentals such as proper posture and fingering, note-reading, rhythm, technique, sight-reading, and more.

The Importance of Learning with Classical Music

Classical music is by far the best foundation for learning piano. It is filled with incredible value artistically, intellectually, and musically. The masterpieces of great classical repertoire are treasures that have stood the test of time and provide a rich understanding of music. In our studio, once basic skills and note recognition have been acquired, classical music is introduced. Classical music builds the necessary framework for exploring any music successfully, including jazz and pop. Through this approach, students will grasp technique effortlessly, develop true expressive skills, and learn theory from music's best teachers: classical composers.

What Do Lessons Include?

As all students have different skill levels and natural abilities, lessons are curated specifically for each individual person.  Within that, each week of lessons is built to cover the fundamental structures of piano playing such as technique, theory, sight-reading, and the application of those things into a musical repertoire. Students will comfortably understand these key components and learn to play independently.

Technique

Technique is very valuable to establish good habits early on and to progress effectively in piano. Technique focuses on posture, dexterity and coordination, pedaling, music articulation, and more.

Theory

While music theory can be a very complex subject, piano theory doesn't have to be complicated to be useful. Things such as scale and chord structure and rhythm are introduced as they appear in music.

Sight-Reading

Sight-reading builds a strong foundation by teaching students to quickly interpret rhythmic patterns. It also helps build confidence and accuracy. Strong sight-reading encourages long-term playing!

Parents of Kennedy & Peyton H.

"Mrs. Rachel is AMAZING! We struggled with finding a new piano teacher for our girls after their piano teacher moved away. We are so thankful to have found Mrs. Rachel. The girls have only been learning from her for a few months but they NOW are excited to practice. I’m addition, she just put together a FABULOUS recital for all the children at a local senior living facility. An awesome way to give back and put the talents on display. Definitely a plus for one of my girls who is immensely shy! Mrs. Rachel is not only TALENTED, she is a ROCKSTAR and is a natural around the kids with her kind and comedic demeanor! We couldn’t have asked for a better experience!"
