Will Travel Locally

Mary Simmons holds lessons from her home studio in Lansing, MI. Or, she can travel to a student's home if they are in the Greater Lansing area. 

From beginners to intermediates, she has worked with pianists of all skill levels. She'll go over the basics of what you do know during your first lesson, then structure future lesson plans around that.
