Emma is a fantastic piano teacher and I would wholeheartedly recommend her for any age and skill level. My 6 year old son and I both took lessons with her for almost 2 years in NYC in person, and then online for a few months once she moved to Australia.

Emma is a great piano teacher teaching my 5 years old son. She split learning contents into small and manageable chunks so it's easy for me to track the progress.

She is a fantastic teacher and musician who became an instant sensation and gained a full teaching studio in record time.

I started taking lessons with Emma about 3 months ago, as a 32 year old complete beginner with no prior knowledge whatsoever, and I could not have hoped for a better teacher!

My two children (13 and 11) have had piano lessons with Emma for the past five years, both face to face and online, and I could not recommend her more highly.

Our son has recently started piano lessons with Emma and we can already see how his skills and musicality have developed even in a short space of time.
