Welcome to Vaughan Piano Studio page.
This page will help you find information related to scheduling, invoices and helpful materials for students.
I graduated from Radford University in 1994 and have been teaching private piano lessons since college. I have taught music and been a choral director since 2008 in public schools.
I am a classically trained pianist and I teach my students to read all the notation on a piece of music. I realize it's important to play what you love and what you know, so I incorporate whatever the student is interested in learning. My job is to equip the student to play everything. I will expose students to classical pieces, but also teach sacred, pop, technique exercises, lead sheets and more.
I am a member of the Raleigh Piano teachers association and participate in Young Artist Auditions held each March. Students prepare to compete or receive a score from a judge. It's an absolutely fantastic opportunity for pianists to grow their piano skills.
On a personal note, I have been married to Jeff Vaughan since 1991 and we have four children. It's been a joy to stay home and teach piano while my children were babies and preschool age.
