Piano teacher teaching piano lessons in the North Shore of Massachusetts serving

"My daughter Samantha has studied piano with Nancy Morgan for five years, and my youngest daughter, Veronica, has studied for three years. What has impressed me most is Nancy's comprehensive approach to teaching. The girls study method, technique, sight reading and theory. Also, each trimester is dedicated to a special topic. These have included composing, ear training, and famous composers. These topics provide variety to the lessons and help keep the girls engaged.
            Nancy strives to motivate her students in various ways. Each student develops a list of personal goals at the start of a trimester. As the goals are achieved, the student's sense of accomplishment grows. The goals also afford the student the opportunity to further work in areas of special interest. Another fun and motivational technique Nancy employs is the "House Competition." Students can earn points for their team by participating in music related activities while furthering their appreciation and understanding of music. Nancy also hosts "Super Group" weeks. Students gather to perform for each other and study new topics. In this way, students meet and socialize, and piano becomes less solitary.
            My daughters have truly benefited from their years with Nancy. They have not only learned to play piano; they have a better understanding of personal responsibility and accomplishment. I highly recommend Nancy Morgan."

"Nancy Morgan gave me a gift. I had not played the piano for forty years. She accepted this 'begin again beginner' as a student and with patience and perseverance helped me to achieve playing the instrument at an intermediate level. Her details of interpretation of the rhythm, pitch, dynamics, tone color and articulation of a musical piece have added a depth and appreciation to the study of the music. The instructors at Sonata in Bennington, Vt. (a piano camp for adults) noted the progress and improvement of my playing after a year of lessons with Nancy.
In addition, Nancy brings adult students together several times a year for a seminar on a mutual musical topic of interest. These opportunities expand our music appreciation and knowledge. I always wanted to play duets which now is an important part of my piano lessons. We have shared duets and played selections at an adult concert held this spring.
