About Karley
Hi, I’m Karley! I’m a dedicated piano teacher with a deep love for music and a passion for helping students of all ages grow in their skills, confidence, and creativity at the piano. My goal is to nurture not only technical ability, but also a lifelong appreciation for music that students can carry with them wherever they go. Whether that’s performing, composing, ministering to others, or simply enjoying music more deeply.
I offer one-on-one piano lessons over video call, making it easy and convenient for you to learn from the comfort of your own home. My online lessons are flexible and tailored to your schedule, allowing you to progress at a pace that works for you while still receiving the personal attention and encouragement that every musician needs.
My teaching style emphasizes a well-rounded musical foundation, with a focus on both classical and sacred music. I love customizing lesson material to reflect each student’s unique interests, whether that’s learning a favorite hymn, tackling a challenging classical piece, or exploring improvisation. Each lesson incorporates music theory, proper technique, and expressive playing to develop well-rounded musicianship.
With over twelve years of piano study and performance experience, I’ve been grateful for the chance to explore a variety of musical styles. My background includes training in classical repertoire, sacred arrangements, hymn improvisation, and music theory, all of which help shape how I approach both teaching and performance. I’m involved in the music ministry at my church, which has been a meaningful part of my musical journey. Over the years, I’ve accompanied vocalists and instrumentalists, played for congregational singing, participated in seasonal programs, and provided music for weddings and special services. I’ve also had opportunities to perform in recitals, university competitions, and fine arts programs. Each of these experiences has deepened my appreciation for the way music can connect and inspire people.
Whether you’re just beginning your piano adventure or seeking to refine your skills, I would love to walk alongside you as a teacher and cheerleader, helping you reach your goals and experience the joy of making music. If you’re ready to begin lessons or just want to learn more, I’d love to hear from you. Reach out through my Contact Page, and let’s start your piano journey together!
