Me? Teach Piano? | Book Release and Giveaway

Being a teacher is just part of who I am. I love teaching, and it's easy for me to see that God has given me that love for teaching. Of course, I love teaching piano, but you know what else? I love helping other musicians know how to teach too! (so, I like teaching teachers?) Last year, the Lord gave me the idea to write a down-to-earth, somewhat whimsical booklet, "Me? Teach Piano?" This year, I'm happy to announce that it is available to piano teachers and wanna-be teachers!

For a moment, let me pause and brag on Sydney Bonnell, because I love the cover, and everyone who sees it says they love it too. I had an idea for the cover in mind, but if you know me, you know that the best thing I can draw is stick people. One of my sisters mentioned that a friend's sister drew and there we had it. God answered Sydney's prayer for a way to use her drawing, and my prayer in providing an artist! And then once and again, my sister, Elizabeth, helped me out with the inside graphics.

Okay, now for the book!


"You play piano? Could you teach my daughter?" The parent looks too desperate to turn down, yet your thoughts run wild. "Me? Teach piano? I can barely play myself! Do they know what they're trying to get themselves into?!"

"Me? Teach Piano?" is a simple guide to clear up some of your questions as you learn a down-to-earth approach to creating piano policies, interacting with students, and choosing the correct curriculum.
