Sarah is a wonderful piano teacher. She creates a welcoming, warm atmosphere and a safe space for learning and creative exploration. She's also excellent at tailoring lessons to her students' particular interests. I have really enjoyed the convenience of online lessons. I doubt I would have kept taking lessons for as long as I have if I had to commute to them. In my opinion online lessons are still the full experience!

Read moreSarah is an incredible teacher. I'm an adult beginner (I'm 46, and I had a few years of lessons when I was very little) and in just about 2 months of (zoom) lessons so far, I am already so excited to sit down to practice every day! Sarah makes sure that I understand WHY I'm doing each exercise, she is really tuned into what I want to do with piano (play pop songs I love and sing along to them!) and she's helping me develop my musicality along with my muscle memory for playing. She's also really responsive to where I'm at on any given evening — life is stressful, and sometimes my lesson needs to be just about finding some joy at the piano. Plus she's really committed to her students — she makes us YouTube videos for technique, etc. I'm so grateful to be working with her, and I recommend her HIGHLY!

Read moreSarah was our kid's piano teacher from the little years to the high school years. Not only was she a musical inspiration, she also became an invaluable role model and friend to our child. We couldn't recommend Sarah enough!

Read moreSarah was my daughter's piano teacher starting in Kindergarten up to the week before she left for College. She has been an amazingly positive influence in her life, helping to foster a love of music and encourage the confidence to perform and explore. Sarah has the ability to engage with kids and teens with authenticity and humor. When we switched to online classes she brought just as much energy and inspiration to each lesson as in-person lessons. I am so thankful for all that Sarah has done for our family. She's the best!

Read moreSarah Collins is THE BEST music teacher ever!!! I've taken weekly piano lessons with Sarah for 2 years, and now both of my kids see her for piano lessons as well. Sarah is an amazing teacher and such an enjoyable person to learn from. I highly recommend her services to anyone looking to learn piano.

Read moreSarah is exceptional. Her teaching methods are innovative, weaving together each lesson with patience, love, kindness, and joyful laughter. With a remarkable ability to tune in to her students, she guides them on their musical journey, tailoring her approach to their unique interests and needs. Our child recently "graduated" from piano lessons, a journey that began at the age of 9 and continued until they were nearly 17. It was a bittersweet decision to say goodbye to Sarah, yet it feels like she became a part of our family. She served as a valuable adult role model in our child's life, instilling not just a passion for music but also equipping them with the skills necessary for a lifelong musical adventure. For us, Sarah's impact extends beyond the realm of music education, leaving an indelible mark on our hearts.
