Today we’re heading to the UK to visit Becs Leighton. Becs had a successful career and one that she enjoyed before she gave it up to go all in with teaching and find a better life-balance for her and her family. I hope you’ll be inspired by her
Today we’re visiting with Lisa Kisselstein in New York. Lisa is the definition of a lifelong learner in my book, she’s constantly questioning and seeking out answers and, as we discuss, admitting when she doesn’t know something yet. I know you’
Today we’re heading to Seattle to chat to Aura Ruddell. Aura’s diverse studio sounds like exactly the place I want to learn! Content warning that you may have an urge to head back in time and sign up for lessons with her too. ;)Aura Ruddell is
Today we’re heading to New Jersey to hear from Marcia Kravis. Marcia’s journey from harpsichordist to piano teacher is a fascinating one with lots of lessons about enjoying the longer route on the way.Marcia teaches children ages 4 - 80 in Phil
Today we’re heading to Singapore to visit Mei Po Sum. She hasn’t always lived there, though…far from it. Her story gave me instant itchy feet for travelling and, even more that, many flashbacks to my beginning years of teaching when I let paren
Today we’re visiting Juanita Stauffer in Alberta, Canada. I’m hoping to meet Juanita in real life when covid finally allows me to attend the Alberta Piano Teacher’s Association conference but until then it was such a pleasure to chat with her v
Today we’re visiting Graham Diesel in South Africa. Graham has been thrown into the deep end of teaching over and over and has some great insights on the differences between the classroom and the private lesson. Links mentioned today…Vibrant Mu
Today we’re going to hear from Fiona Cockling in England. Like me, Fiona didn’t study music at university and she sometimes deals with self-doubt when talking to other teachers online. Listen to hear how she manages these thoughts and finds bal
Today we’re heading over to Carmen Carpenter in Pennsylvania. Carmen describes herself in this interview as being late to using games but I say you’re never too late to join this party! If you’ve never used games to teach…perhaps this will insp
LYDIA INTRODUCTIONToday we’re heading to Australia to visit Lydia Wills. Her first teacher is an unusual story! I’d love to hear if you had a similar experience. Lydia’s thoughts on understanding that our students are not us particularly stood
Today we’re heading over to see Helen Raymaker in Illinois. Helen has experienced many studio moves which must have been challenging but she always seems to see the light and the delight in everything. I’m sure this episode will delight you too
Today we’re going to visit Ashmitha Jasper in Delhi, India. Ashmitha took a break from teaching to go get a “real” job before coming back to where she should have been all along. It’s clear that she puts a lot of attention into how she teaches
Today we’re heading over to the UK to meet Victoria Clark. I’m sure Victoria’s transfer student story will sound familiar to you too. You’ve either had a student like this or you will soon and I being prepared to take it back to the start is es
Today we’re visiting Colin Campbell in Virginia. Colin had the enviable experience of being mentored by his teacher in his first years. I hope his story inspires you to seek out a mentor if you’re a new teacher or to help a new teacher find the
Today we’re talking to April Wentzell. When preparing for this interview, April said she thought she would be a good fit for our show ethos because she’s “perfectly imperfect”. I’m sure many of you will resonate with that statement and others w
Today we’re going to visit Teresa Petrusma in Ontario, Canada. I had the pleasure of meeting Teresa in person when I was in Canada a few years ago and she is a ray of sunshine personified. I know you’ll love this chat and that it will bring joy
Today we’re talking to Roopika Bhatla, a piano and voice teacher in Noida, India. Roopika was one of the lucky ones who had her former teacher to guide her when she first started teaching. In this interview, she shares her lessons from preschoo

Today we’re visiting with Heidi Vandermeersch in Belgium. Heidi has been teaching for a long time but had to make some big pivots a few years ago when the curriculum and structure changed. I found it fascinating to learn about a music education
Today we’re talking to Stephan Nance, a musician, writer, and piano teacher in Oregon. Stephan jumped head first into teaching before realising how much work is involved, an approach I think many of us, including myself, can relate to. In this
