Evaluations
Nannette Pope was my piano teacher from the summer before I started 2nd grade until she moved away 7 years later. Her methods were very effective and built a wonderful foundation for music all around. Even now, as a music teacher myself, I find myself referring to some of the same methods, stories, and memories because of how practical they were. She not only teaches the piano in a fun way, but also the theory and history behind the music. When it came time to find a piano teacher for my own children I was looking for someone like her. Nannette is truly one of those educators I esteem as a “great teacher.”
Nannette Pope was the perfect teacher for my children growing up. She’s very patient and kind, and with her degree in piano, she is able to demonstrate skilled piano performance as well as teaching proper hand technique and posture, musicality, and the idea that music is fun-especially when you are the one making the music! Nannette gave my children the introduction to music that actually led to college scholarships. So if you’re looking for someone who’s highly qualified and makes piano fun, you’ve found her!
