We love listening to Adelina practice piano. Abbey has been teaching her songs by memory since she first started playing piano. Adelina has been playing songs by the Beatles, Queen, Taylor Swift, and Olivia Rodrigo. Kudos to Abbey for keeping piano fun and being so flexible!! Thank you!

“Adelina has made leaps and bounds in piano over the last three to four months. She has been practicing regularly, learned how to count 8th notes, started a new book, and has become very accomplished at memorizing pop songs. She has a good ear, natural rhythm, and a great attitude during her lessons. Together we enjoy playing duets, and picking out future route songs. Way to go Adelina!”
