Judy S, Monday April 2024. My son has been taking piano lessons with my Kathleen for over five years and I couldn't be happier with his progress. Kathleen is an incredibly skilled and patient teacher who has helped him develop his piano skills immensely. She is always encouraging and makes the lessons enjoyable. Kathleen is a calm and dedicated teacher, and I would highly recommend her.
Devita P, Friday April 2024. My daughter has been taking piano lessons from Kathleen for many years now and they have a strong bond from Kathleen’s positive and flexible teaching. Kathleen is very knowledgable, patient, and she has made piano lessons fun! There is a lot of flexibility with following the traditional lessons and also requesting to learn to play a song from the radio which has been very enjoyable for my daughter. Kathleen has also given great tips for challenges with playing difficult pieces of music and playing in front of an audience. We are very happy we found her because she has been a great influence to my daughter playing piano this long.

I highly recommend Kathleen as a piano teacher. I sat in and watched one of Kathleen‘s piano lessons with a group of young students. One of the lessons that I watched was a group of five different students playing on keyboards. They all synchronized together perfectly and I could tell they were really enjoying what they were doing and were very engaged. Then I watched her teaching them a song using Cups to learn rhythm. Again, the students all seemed very focused and were really into what they were doing and were enjoying it and having fun.
Kathleen has a wonderful way with her students and I see the utmost respect that they have for her.

Kathleen Clark is a diamond in the rough when it comes to piano teachers. We are so thankful we found her a little over a year ago to teach our 13 year old son. He started playing piano when he was 9 years old, and we needed to find a replacement teacher for him when he was 12. She made the transition very easy for us and especially our son. His skills have improved immensely and we are so pleased with how much progress he has made.
Kathleen is very easy to talk to and work with. She has open communication and is flexible and understanding. The ability to reschedule lessons, book make-up lessons, and pivot to online learning if necessary is much appreciated. She checks in with parents and gives us regular updates on what our son is learning and what he needs to focus on. We believe that the tuition she charges is very fair for the time and effort she puts in for each student. We also love the fact that she hosts recitals so the parents/family can be there in person to see what their children have learned.
Our son says she's a great teacher and always gives him positive feedback and constructive criticism. When we pick up our son after every lesson, he is always in a confident and happy mood. We would definitely recommend Kathleen Clark as a piano teacher.

“I had two years of piano lessons as a child. Then took 50 years off, during that time I didn’t even touch piano keys. Recently in retirement, I decided to try playing again. I hit the jackpot finding Kathleen! She brought me back to piano, renewed my skills and has inspired me. She knows my musical tastes and offers piano pieces at my ability level. Kathleen has been my teacher for 5 years now and I love being one of her adult students. It’s great to be playing again.”

I cannot recommend Kathleen Clark enough as a piano teacher for children (and adults as well). She has been working with my 9-year-old daughter for less than a year and I have seen a remarkable improvement in her playing ability, as well as her confidence in playing in front of others.
Kathleen has a natural ability to connect with children and create a fun and engaging learning environment. She is patient and encouraging, while also challenging her students to push themselves and reach their full potential.
Her teaching style is tailored to each individual student's needs and learning style, which I have found to be extremely effective. She incorporates a variety of teaching methods and resources, including games and activities, to keep children interested and motivated.
Kathleen is also very organized and communicative, providing regular progress updates, suggestions for at-home practice, and extremely flexible & accomodating with her schedule. She is always available to answer any questions or concerns, and truly cares about the success of her students.
I highly recommend Kathleen as a piano teacher for children. She has been an invaluable asset to my daughter's musical education, and I am grateful for all that she has done to help her grow as a budding pianist and her confidence overall.

My six year old daughter started piano lessons for the first time in the Fall and has learned so much in her short time with Kathleen. Kathleen is patient, attentive, and really makes learning fun! My daughter especially loves the games Kathleen integrates into each lesson. We feel very fortunate to have found Kathleen and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for piano lessons!

Kathleen is able to create amazing connections with her students. She is incredibly intuitive and knows just when to push kids a bit harder as well as when to relax and switch gears. She makes learning a challenging instrument fun!

Kathleen has been teaching my daughters (8, 10) for about 2 years. They have grown so much from beginning piano players not knowing anything, to now being able to play and entertain for the family. Kathleen has also been flexible teaching throughout COVID and quarantine. We have been able to keep in person classes and flex to online when needed. Highly recommend Kathleen and her piano studio!

Kathleen is an excellent teacher. My daughter loves her. It is obvious that she loves teaching piano. She is dependable, organized and always on time. My daughter and I both know exactly what to expect from week to week. She goes above and beyond to facilitate not only theory and learning to play but also enjoyment of playing as well. I rarely have to tell my daughter to practice. She wants to and I believe that has almost everything to do with Kathleen’s approach to teaching. Furthermore, she has educated herself on the best ways to use technology for virtual learning. We love it!

My daughter has been a student of Kathleen’s for about 3 years now. She is such a compassionate, patient teacher. My daughter has progressed in piano faster than I ever expected and know it’s due to Kathleen’s amazing teaching technique.
