In my studio, I provide a relaxed and positive environment where you can learn piano and grow as a musician.
You can put aside the stress of the day and have fun making music. I specialize in teaching beginner and intermediate students of all ages.
I've played the piano for 25 yrs and have taught for over 10 yrs. I'm a professional musician with a B.M. in Jazz Performance who loves to teach all contemporary styles of music.
You can even study piano from the comfort of your own home via Skype!
In beginner lessons, we cover all the music fundamentals including learning to read notes and rhythms, keeping time and scales & chords.
In intermediate lessons, we focus on the playing the music you love and deepening your piano skills , musical ear and understanding of music theory.
Nearly half of my piano students are kids! Learning the piano can be a lot of fun with the right teacher.
Children's piano lessons are focused on building musicianship skills and enjoying music. The discipline of practicing an instrument is great for kids!
Would you love to be able to sing and play piano at the same time? Or just sing better in general? I'm a trained vocalist and many of my students study piano and voice.
Here's a little video performance of me singing and playing the piano.
Piano teacher, Meghan McKown
Tia Simone, Pro Musician
"Meghan is a really great communicator. I have always found music theory frightening. It has never been easy for me to grasp that language and Meghan has given me the tools to navigate it in a way that makes sense. I definitely feel more confident now than I ever have"
Jeremy Eden, student
"My favorite thing studying with Meghan is that it's an hour out of the day in which with great enthusiasm and fun we can focus on something that's really enjoyable and where I'm seeing a lot of progress. Completely different from the rest of the stress filled day. A lot of that is because of her skill and personality."
Katie Nicolay, student
"I really like the atmosphere studying with Meghan. It's very laid back and comfortable but it's also a very intense learning environment. I learn so much every single time I visit her."
