Experienced tutor in Piano in Minneapolis, Liz offers private lessons tailored to your needs.

Liz is such a talented pianist! Very knowledgeable about music.

Liz Athorn took me on as a late-beginner student after I retired. I could read music but had not played piano since my pre-teen years. She offered to teach some music theory and a lot of piano practice. We had weekly lessons. I stayed with her (and she with me) for two or three years.

She is a good, patient and demanding teacher. She did not make me a performing pianist, but I enjoyed our sessions and learned a lot both from her and from excellent printed materials she provided. Liz explains and demonstrates practical matters well. She emphasizes development of basic technical habits and has a kindly sense of humor about a student's limitations. I recommend her highly.

I've also had indirect experience of Liz as a choir instructor with young children. She elicits remarkable performance and I imagine would do likewise with a child at the keyboard.
