“Tarra made a seamless transition from teaching my grandson to working with me on the old stuff like the Beatles. I’m having a great time playing again.”

“Tarra is the best teacher we could ever ask to guide and teach our 5 year old son in the world of music and piano. She made the lessons so fun…
