Amy Work's Private Piano Studio

I think we would all love to have children who take naturally to an instrument and who are eager to put in the hours that the process of learning to play and read music takes.

With her guidance, I was able to perform onstage in Carnegie Hall and also participate in countless other events and competitions

She meets students EXACTLY at their individual needs; she even conducted research outside of lessons to figure out the best ways to help me.

Whether it's bringing together her students and their families for a backyard recital or organizing for the kids to play at nursing homes and events, our whole family feels like we're part of a community.

I am looking forward to the end of the year recital to hear my son and all the other students play.

Of course there is hard work and dedication but she also brings her students into the community and collaboration that studying music can include.

The calendar year with her is well-structured and the group lessons help her students learn in different ways.

She has been extremely flexible and open to my daughter's pace, working with her until she found the kind of music that inspired my daughter to practice.

In addition to all of this, Amy is an amazing communicator and is so organized with all of her lessons, keeping her expectations from her students clear and concise.

I have watched her teach at all levels and it amazes me to see her move from teaching a complete neophyte on the one hand to teaching one of her advanced students.
