Hello,
My name is Rocco and I am a piano teacher from Vaughan, teaching since 2012. I hold my Associate Diploma in both Piano Performance and Piano Pedagogy from the Royal Conservatory of Music. I also belong to the Ontario Registered Music Teachers' Association as a Registered Music Teacher (RMT) and participate on the executive committee for my branch. I am originally a business administration graduate from the Schulich School of Business at York University. Having played the piano for over 25 years, I have a tremendous love for the piano and sharing my passion of music with others, so I decided to begin my own studio while studying in my fourth year of University. My studio is mobile only, which means that I deliver the lessons in the comfort of your own home. My past years of teaching have been very rewarding. I always give my students frequent goals to stay motivated such as a recital, festival, competition or RCM exam. My students frequently win awards at festivals/competitions and obtain very high marks on RCM exams. I'm looking forward to beginning or enhancing your musical journey. I hope to hear from you!
