Every life is touched by music but those who play a musical instrument are entrusted with a joyous gift that they may cherish, nurture and share with others. The study of a musical instrument is an engaging and enriching process that is defined by discipline and hard work. The prospect of performance helps the student to set clear and achievable goals. Encouraging feedback from the teacher motivates the student to continually improve. Experiencing music will forever change a life!
Amy Boyes' diverse experience as a music teacher includes teaching:
All students must have regular access to an instrument to practice on. Beginning students should have at least a 61-key, weighted electronic piano and all intermediate to advanced students should have access to a well-maintained acoustic piano.
Examinations participation (practical and theoretical) and recital performance (twice yearly)
are encouraged but not required. Other performances options such as church services or
seniors' homes are also encouraged.
Amy respects and accommodates differences in personality types and learning styles and
seeks to adjust her teaching to the needs of the student.
