We are happy to share with you information about piano lessons at Grace Notes Piano Studio. Our students range in age from 4 to 94 and in ability levels, from beginner to advanced.

Our lessons are individualized according to learning styles, practicing time available, student tastes in music, etc. All students are taught the fundamentals of piano theory, technique, and repertoire, via a number of resources.

Our students work with a core curriculum to provide continuity and comprehensive learning. In addition, we strive to make sure there are supplemental materials of interest to the student for fun and rewarding playing.

A variety of practicing plans are encouraged and many performance opportunities exist for the students.

Susan Royer has been a private piano teacher in the Upper Perkiomen Valley since 1990. She has a B.S. in Christian Education and studied piano pedagogy with Ina Grapenthin and Ruth Ann Moyer. She is organist at Shenkel United Church of Christ in Pottstown, PA as well as a frequent guest organist for weddings and funerals. Susan has mentored numerous students in accompanying for choirs/choruses, orchestras, and jazz bands at their schools and churches.

Susan is a long-time advocate of music and the arts in the Upper Perk Valley. She has spent many hours supporting school bands and choirs, and is also co-coordinator of Make Music Upper Perk, a community-wide music festival that takes place in several locations around the Upper Perkiomen Valley and joins the annual event, Fete de La Musique, in hundreds of cities around the world. Below is a video of Susan accompanying one of her newest students in his debut at Java Good Day Cafe in East Greenville during Make Music Upper Perk 2014.

In addition to Susan’s direct instruction, there have been several advanced older students who have in turn taken on a few young beginner students of their own as student teachers under Susan’s mentoring and supervision.
