Experienced tutor in Piano in Parrottsville, Cynthia offers private lessons tailored to your needs.

After a year of trying to teach myself to play the violin, I realized that the absence of knowledgeable feedback was slowing my efforts. I was extremely fortunate to come across the more structured lessons offered by Ms. Drexler. Not only did she quickly rid me of some bad habits, but after only two years of lessons I have reached a strong intermediate level of playing. The lessons are both fun and challenging. Her encouragement for me to try new techniques and tunes has kept me from being stagnant and resulted in a better than ever performance of earlier songs I had learned, even adding slides and double stops! She is a very gifted instructor.

Cynthia teaches online using the Collabra music tool. It allows me to hear her play an assignment and then play along with her. I can listen to the recording and see how I sound. She then comments on my recording, and tells me what I need to do to improve. It is a useful system. She does a zoom call with me as well, so she can hear me play and give feedback in real time. Overall, it is a good approach to teaching lessons online. I an older adult (in my fifties) but this approach should work for people of all ages. Cynthia is a patient teacher who gives lots of positive feedback. Overall I am pleased with her teaching.

Mrs. Drexler has been an incredibly kind and informative teacher for me over the past two years. She has improved my position, ability to shift, and vibrato dramatically. Thank you so much Mrs. Drexler!

Cynthia is very accommodating to students’ school and summer schedules. She has amazing knowledge with the violin, viola and piano, and does such a nice job imparting this knowledge to students of all ages and stages of learning to play their instrument. On top of that, Cynthia does so well with making this learning fun, and my son always looks forward to going to his lesson.
