Welcome to Olga’s Piano Lessons!

My teaching journey began in 1994 and has included piano, voice, music theory and music history. I graduated from the College of Music and Art with a Bachelor degree and am a Royal Conservatory of Music Certified Teacher.

With over 25 years of experience, my approach develops the whole musician, combining a strong technical foundation with musical understanding, creativity and personal expression.

Strong foundations help students learn repertoire with confidence, perform with expression, and enjoy a lifetime of independent music making.

Private Piano Lessons

Private lessons are based on the Royal Conservatory of Music Certificate Program, providing a structured and progressive course of study tailored to each student’s level, abilities and goals.

Lessons include

  • Repertoire study
  • Piano technique and physical approach
  • Music literacy
  • Aural and reading skills
  • Musicianship
  • Artistry and expression

RCM Exam Preparation

I prepare students for Royal Conservatory of Music examinations using the RCM Certificate Program. Regular examinations provide clear goals, support consistent progress and build confidence through achievement.

CERTIFICATE PROGRAM

Theory & History

Understanding music goes beyond playing the notes. Lessons incorporate music theory and history to help students recognize musical structure, appreciate the repertoire they perform and become more well-rounded and confident musicians.

These connections deepen understanding and strengthen musical literacy.
