I've taught Piano nearly 25 years, and Voice the last 15 years. I have a successful "way with kids" (teens and adults welcome too)! I love getting to know the uniqueness of every student and gearing teaching toward that student, while still honoring and teaching the important fundamentals of music. IMPORTANT for children and all beginners to get accurate technical training and useful knowledge from the beginning-which will aid them in their learning and later involvement in music!

Body: quot;We were looking for a good piano and vocals teacher for my 7-year-old daughter Aria. Being a very shy child, we were a little concerned if she would feel comfortable enough to respond to instruction. Julieanna started teaching Aria piano and voice, and it proved to be wonderful; Aria very much responded to instruction! Julieanna has the knack to teach children and make it fun. She has simple tips to help children remember music basics. She also makes sure the student gets concepts related not just to musical notes but also to rhythm--feeling and accurately reading rhythms too-a very important part of the music learning process. Julieanna has many years of experience teaching piano and vocals and one can see it in the way she teaches. I highly recommend her for any music coaching needs you may have.quot; Best, Rohit J [He#039;s stated that for anyone needing to talk to him re his daughter#039;s experience with Julieanna, he#039;d provide his phone number. Please ask teacher Julieanna if you wish that info.!]
