A Musical Encore in Retirement: Adult Student Testimonial
“I have been taking piano lessons with Niccole for about 2 1/2 years, although I am not your typical beginner. Because I was beginning piano lessons as a retiree in my 70s, I was apprehensive about finding the right teacher. Niccole has been perfect for me.
She is a knowledgeable and gifted
pianist as well as warm, enthusiastic, supportive and encouraging, all traits I welcome and appreciate as an adult beginner. She recognizes and adapts to my learning style as a “mature” adult and always find ways to encourage me. I leave my lessons having learned something new and ready to take on the next challenge.”
