Munger RA Skylar Hawthorne will be teaching four 30-minute piano lessons. She will be
tailoring each lesson to the student’s skill level, needs, and most importantly, their goals. Since
intrinsic motivation is much more powerful than external motivation, Skylar wants to work with
her students to discover how they can have the most fun playing piano. This primarily comes
from helping students learn the songs they want to learn and finding a version of that song
within their skill level. Sometimes, there might not be a published version of the desired song
within the student’s skill level, in which case Skylar will arrange one. From contemporary
composition to classical music, Skylar can help students find joy in the wonderful world of piano
music.
