About Rusty
Beginners often think piano requires perfect natural talent from day 1. I focus on practical skills gained from 5 years of teaching and my BMus Piano Performance degree from Eastman School of Music. I help students navigate ABRSM and Trinity grade exams with ease.
My approach centers on solid hand position and posture fundamentals. I share specialized memorization techniques to make pieces stick. We cover scales, arpeggios, and sight playing regularly. Do you want to try some pop, jazz improvisation, or classical repertoire today?

Progress should be audible from your very first session. I have 5 years of experience turning complex musical concepts into achievable daily practice.
I track all student development through a monthly report sent directly to parents to ensure clarity. We work on chord voicings and contemporary styles to keep things fresh.
Keep it simple. You will see clear movement through your materials.
My Eastman background informs how I structure every hour. I keep the environment light and approachable for all ages. We maintain a steady pace of learning without unnecessary pressure.
Constant feedback helps us refine your technique during every single visit. Sound matters most here.
