Piano Teacher

Passing this along........
paulette-pic.jpg
My name is Paulette Kunigisky, and I have been a professional pianist and piano teacher since the age of 13. I recently moved to Windsor, CT, and am looking for new piano students. I have a Master's Degree from Hartt School of Music in Music Education, and a Bachelor's Degree in Piano. I have my own website called paulettepiano.com which gives a lot of background information about me, including references. I have performed at the White House and many other places, but above all, love teaching private piano lessons. My phone number is 860-539-1557. My rates are very reasonable, and I teach out of my own home.  I have been invited to teach piano lessons to students at Trinity Methodist Christian School, and have been the pianist for numerous Christian churches in the last 20 years.  In the past, I have found that home schooled children have made excellent students, and their families are very supportive. The students tend to be very well behaved, and practice diligently for the most part.. I also love teaching children to play gospel music, as well as classical, jazz, and other styles of music. I love being able to share the Lord with my students, and speak freely about Jesus. I am a composer, and also have taught many of my students how to compose music. Please feel free to call me if you have any questions. Thank you very much. Sincerely, Paulette
