OUR TEACHERS

TAMI ANDERSON

I have loved singing & playing piano since I was a little girl. In fact, I loved the piano so much that I cared for a wheelchair-bound friend in exchange for practicing on her piano for the first two years of lessons.

I started formal lessons in the 5th grade with a wonderful woman who had her Doctorate from Juilliard Conservatory. She not only gave me the best technical & classical training, but instilled a love for excellence & joy in my music. From there, I studied with a world-known organist at Northwestern College and then continued my Musical Pedagogy education with the President of the Ohio Music Teacher's Association.

Over the thirty plus years I have taught piano, I have had the privilege of working with students as young as four and as old as eighty-two! There has never been one who was not capable of learning to love playing the piano. I have taught children with learning disabilities & autism. I am committed to teaching theory, technique, ear training, pop & classical to each of my students, as well as giving them tools to sing alongside their playing. This allows students to learn the foundations while having the fun of playing the music they love.
