Beatrice has been teaching the piano to my eight-year-old for four years now. She is everything that I have been looking for in a music teacher for my child. Beatrice knows how to engage children during lessons and how to motivate them to want to play better. Beatrice is able to motivate my daughter to want to achieve better technique and musicality by using interesting analogies that children can easily relate to and remember.With Beatrice, my daughter has learned to play in a musical way and more importantly, she understands the importance of giving her own interpretation to each piece. Beatrice is also extremely encouraging and patient: qualities that enable a positive and loving learning environment and the development of a strong and respectful teacher-student bond. With Beatrice's formidable musical pedagogy and her innate ability to connect with her students, I am confident that my daughter will develop a lifelong passion for the piano.
