What I Offer

Clarinet and piano Lessons

In order to see growth and improvement in your playing, you need strong fundamentals, effective practice strategies, and sustainable physical and mental habits.
To accomplish these things, we will select engaging repertoire, create clear goals and practice plans, develop a warm-up routine, implement a variety of practice strategies and approaches, improve physical comfort while playing through body awareness, and find opportunities to share progress and perform.
The Convenience of Learning Online

Students in any location can take lessons with me online via Google Meet. This allows families to fit lessons more seamlessly into their schedules - students receive high quality instruction while parents are saved the commute to yet another activity.

student and family testimonials

"I have two daughters taking lessons from Adella and she is great. She is patient, she makes sure they learn what they are doing before moving on and my daughters have been learning piano from level 0 with her, and they love it! I would highly recommend Adella. We are very happy with her services."
"Adella has been the most amazing teacher. Ever since I was a little kid I wanted to play the piano for our holiday singing together, and with Adella’s help, I was able to start with nothing and learn to play the entire song book in only a few months. I would highly recommend her to anyone learning or re-learning piano!"
"My daughter has been taking clarinet lessons with Adella for almost a year now. She has seen significant growth in her playing ability in that amount of time! With Adella's guidance, she earned a first chair spot at her last audition. Most importantly, she enjoys the lessons and is excited for the extra things she learns outside of her school band class. Highly recommend!"
"My daughter was starting to lose interest in piano until we found Adella! She is patient and kind and keeps her excited and motivated. Most importantly she has built her confidence up."
"Adella is amazing with my 7 year old daughter! She is patient and kind, and such a great teacher. My daughter has taken a real liking to piano, thanks to Adella."
"My daughter learned so much in her first ever lesson! Adella did a great job providing clarity and positive attitude!"
"I had a wonderful experience in virtual clarinet lessons with Adella. Not only is Adella an excellent tutor, but she is also very passionate and knowledgeable about teaching. With her help, Adella has enabled me to qualify and play in my all-state concert band as well as have fun in the process. I recommend Adella for those seeking to reach the next level or just wanting to pick up a new hobby!"
