Hello future students!
My name is Renata and I am a piano teacher. As a musician, I believe that everyone should have an opportunity to study music through mastering some musical instrument. On top of obtaining lasting a lifetime musical skills, learning and understanding music opens an extra dimension into this world giving us one more reason to enjoy and appreciate our being. This is why I am dedicated to deliver quality music education by creating and nourishing not only musical skills but the understanding, appreciation and love for the art of piano playing.
I was introduced to the piano music for the first time when I was 7 years old. I was attending ballet classes where musical accompaniment was provided by alive pianist who played pieces of various rhythms and harmonies. I'm sure I wasn't the best dance student as my attention was constantly captured by cascading arpeggios and invigorating passages. I fell in love with piano and asked my mom to take me to the music school to learn this incredible art. Next seven years of my life were devoted to piano lessons, music theory, solfeggio, choir and music history classes. After graduation from the high school, I enrolled in College of Music Arts in Rostov-on-Don city, Russia, graduated with honors and obtained my Bachelors' degree in piano teaching and performance.
Now I am teaching piano from my home in Frisco and welcoming students of all ages and levels to share my love and passion for piano playing. In my teaching I combine the best traditions of Russian Piano School, various repertoire and my unique approach to every student that result in mastery of effective playing skills, comprehensive knowledge of music theory and deep understanding of all underlying aspects of musical expression in diverse music styles, from classics to modern.
