Vera Alder

Your Piano Teacher

I love to play piano! I love to teach others how to play piano, and hopefully, to love it as I do. Every student is different in the music they enjoy and how they learn. My goal is to help them unlock the potential in themselves, so they can become self-motivated learners, not just in piano, but in all areas of learning. It's called ``playing`` for a reason, and I feel privileged to help my students enjoy the process and all they can accomplish. I hope we can work together to develop a lifelong love of music!

Inspirational Quote!

This is why I teach music--not because I expect you to major in music, not because I expect you to sing or play all your life, not so you can relax, not so you can have fun, but so you will be human, so you will recognize beauty, so you will be closer to an infinite beyond this world, so you will have something to cling to, so you will have more love, more compassion, more gentleness, more good; in short, more life ~ Anonymous

We were fortunate enough to have Vera teaching our children this last year. We had 4 children (ages 8 through 17) doing lessons and Vera has done well with each age and level. She was able to teach them a lot in her time with them. They each looked forward to their lessons. Vera is well educated and skilled in both teaching and music. She has also done a very good job of balancing encouragement and constructive criticisms. Each of our children and myself recommend Vera Alder highly.

I always loved the piano but thought I had missed my chance to learn to play until I met Vera.  With her masterful teaching, patience and understanding of adult learning styles (even seniors) I am learning to play piano and understand music at a deeper level than I could ever hoped.  Never give up  it gives us hope and brings blessings to our lives.

Mrs. Alder had my 5th grader reading music in no time, and allowed him to choose some of his own pieces from day one. His confidence and love for music exploded under her direction.
