I am pleased to say the least that in my search for a great piano teacher Norm Zarr was by far well received. I am 33 years of age out of the twin city area of Minnesota where remote lessons were essential to my time well spent with Mr. Zarr being that his studio is in Portland Oregon. What I liked most of all is he focused on what I wanted out of the lessons which was how to read sheet music well. Not only did he do that, but he also taught other skills as well which I had no knowledge of prior to these lessons. I strongly recommend at least an hour session because playing piano and instruction is key to developing a good foundation not in just piano but also in music....read full review
Each week my piano lessons with Norm are fun. He’s a great teacher. As an adult beginner, I've been doing lessons 2 years and my progress is good. I'm learning to read music faster than I expected. Each week we work on new songs as well as review my favorites.Norm is so knowledgeable about all aspects of music. He really enjoys teaching. I’m always relaxed at the lessons, and we progress at a comfortable rate. There’s always something new to learn, new songs in different styles, blues improvisation, playing by ear. I really enjoy it all.
Lessons with Norm have been wonderful for our son. Norm is consistent and patient teacher, always working to make our son comfortable and always working to truly know our son as an individual! We have seen our son quickly absorbing the lessons and looking forward to his next session!
