"Crystal is so patient and the best piano teacher ever! I started lessons with her a little over a year ago as a complete beginner. Now I can read sheet music, sight read and understand music theory. I highly recommend starting lessons with Crystal."
Isabella Okelberry
I really enjoy my online lessons with Crystal! She is always very patient and supportive, but helps me push myself to keep improving. Lessons are on Zoom and her audio and camera set up are great. I've been taking lessons for just over a year, and can see a lot of progress.
