About Me
Expressions Piano Studio is a private home studio where I teach piano and music theory.  I enjoy playing piano and playing with others, as well as teaching piano.  I have an ARCT from the RCM.  I also studied music at the University of Toronto under the tutelage of Patricia Parr, where I obtained a Bachelor Degree in Music Performance and a Masters Degree in Chamber Music.  I have been teaching and performing for the past 20 years, including stints with two piano trios: the Lindelton Trio and later the Trillium Trio.  Currently, Expressions Piano Studio has 15 students and is growing steadily each year.

Favourite Pianist:  Richard Goode

Parent / Student Testimonials


"As an adult student, I have learned that having a good piano teacher is a valuable aspect to learning to play piano. I chose Theresa as my teacher because she has extensive teaching and performance experience. I believe that both of these experiences are an asset to a teacher, which will therefore be an asset to the student. 


Theresa has provided me knowledge of piano playing that I couldn’t receive elsewhere. She has always been patient, encouraging, and I look forward to every lesson because of this."


- Daniela



"It was a pleasure to be Theresa's piano student for nine years. Not only was she extremely knowledgable and skilled in her profession, but she truly loved it and had a genuine passion in teaching. She shows great care and compassion for her students, making the lessons both constructive and enjoyable.

 

I am glad to say that I still continue to play piano, even after my lessons with Theresa have finished. Thanks to Theresa's passion for music, her lessons and her encouragement, I have developed a great love for music as well. She truly is a inspirational teacher and I would strongly recommend her to others!"
