What Students Say
“Makayla’s love for Jesus, and the reverence and beauty in worship for Him shines forth in her lessons and video courses. I purchased both the Beginning and Intermediate worship piano courses to reinforce what she has taught me in our lessons. They have been so helpful. The most important thing I've learned is to make this all about Jesus, and where my heart should be for Him. Thank you, Makayla!”
— Kimberly
“I was always frustrated when I tried to learn piano by myself because I'm not very motivated on my own, and the books I used tended not to teach piano in a way that kept me interested. With Makayla, however, lessons are enjoyable, engaging, and extremely helpful. I have made significant progress and now enjoy playing a wide selection of worship songs.”
— Miranda
“I am an older piano student (over 50). Makayla is patient, kind, thoughtful, and filled with ideas about how to keep the experience of learning piano fun and exciting for her students. She is able to understand how her students learn best and adapt her teaching style to support that. She is professional while being friendly and relatable. Makayla has advanced software that will help to make your experience learning piano rich and rewarding.”
