About Me

AMY began playing the piano and guitar at the age of 10. Over the years, she developed his skills further by studying at the University of Houston. She gained performance experience in the pop area by playing at such venues as weddings and private events and with acts such as local bands. Though AMY can teach many different genres of music, her musical personal favorites are classical and pop, which had a great influence on her style of playing. Amy loves music because she enjoys sharing music with others and loves teaching music because of the connection with music.

          great teacher

          Piano Lessons Amy has been so great in helping my daughter develop a love for piano, and she's only had about 6 weeks of lessons so far! Ms. is very attentive, asking questions, observing, and constantly assessing where students are in order to give them adequate challenge without overwhelming them. She also pays attention to student interests in order to tailor the lessons to keep them engaged. I think the lessons are a great value. My daughter thinks she's great!

                  Amy is a wonderful teacher. She teaches piano, guitar and vocals, is great with kids, and is really passionate about music. Also, she is very organized, which makes parents' life easy. My son was her student for several years and we all loved her. She is amazing.

                    kind and flexible

                    My daughter has taken piano lessons from Amy for ~2 years. Amy is patient, kind and flexible with lesson scheduling. We really appreciates how she individualizes the lessons so my daughter is playing music that interests her. I would definitely recommend Amy! Aug 31, 2015 Erin O.

                      Very patient with teens. Style of teaching is perfect for my child. Most pleased that my child has continued to enjoy music instruction. Have even branched out to voice and stringed instrument as well as piano. Laurie B. AMY LAURO wrote on Sat, 08 Oct 2022

                        Amy is a fanastic music teacher who knows how to bring out the best in her students while also teaching them the love of music. Elilzabeth I. AMY LAURO wrote on Sat, 08 Oct 2022

                          professional musician

                          My children have been students of Amy's for more than 8 years. She met each child where they were in their musical development, encouraged their creativity and nurtured their love for music. All three of my children flourished under Amy's guidance-including one that is now a professional musician. Aug 10, 2015 Terri K AMY LAURO wrote on Sat, 08 Oct 2022

                            many talents

                            We found Amy through a mutual friend and were so grateful to find her! My son started guitar lessons with Amy in 6th grade and took lessons for about 2years. He went on to play jazz guitar at HSPVA. We credit Amy for giving him that first guitar foundation he needed. Amy has a great talent to match the student with musical interests so that playing was fun, never a chore. She fostered collaboration among her students, giving my son his first chance at playing in a "rock band". Her recitals are fun and more like talent shows; with vocals, piano, guitar, and student bands. Enjoy and learn!…Read more Aug 4, 2015 Beverly D. AMY LAURO wrote on Sat, 08 Oct 2022

                              Amy is a great piano teacher with great patience with kids. I am looking forward to our next session of piano lessons. I'm excited for my grandson to continue working with her Linda Scott wrote on Tue, 18 Apr 2023

                                Very Knowledgable

                                I had zero vocal training and could not hear pitch. Amy tried various exercises and techniques until we found a way for me to start being about to actually sing correctly. Highly recommend! Julian B wrote on Fri, 21 Apr 2023
