Both of my kids have been taking piano lessons with Mrs. Rodgers for years. She is an amazing teacher, passionate and inspiring. She makes piano learning fun. Even the hardest songs, she is able to break down and teach it in a way that kids can learn quickly and thoroughly. Besides teaching piano technique, she is very emphasized on musical expressions as well as how to make music. In addition to the lessons and recital, her students have a lot more opportunities of music performance/education, such as variety auditions/festivals, theory class and composition camp. She is wonderful and my kids love her. Catherine H.
