Tara provides an exceptionally professional instruction with grace and kindness. My young daughter is learning piano very quickly thanks to Tara’s methods. I was originally skeptical about online piano lessons but with Tara’s savvy tech set up, you feel you’re in the same room. My daughter enjoys the playful and educational online games that provide a much-needed body break throughout the lessons. Highly recommend! Lauren Coburn

Welcome!

I'm a music teacher with 32 years of experience based in Carp, Ontario. I offer music lessons for children and adults in piano, guitar, music theory and more. I successfully prepare students for RCM Exams with a 100% honours or above exam results. I also teach non-exam students who wish to take this route.

As a qualified elementary school teacher, I take a great interest in all aspects of a students education and how each student learns differently. I constantly continue to improve my professional development with courses online from around the world. I use traditional and modern methods of teaching and together we can decide which is best suited for you.

Piano lessons - private and group lessons for children and adults with a difference. I can help beginners get started, guide more advanced students through all levels of RCM practical examinations, prepare students to gain High School Credits and help any student love music for life.
Guitar lessons - fun lessons for aspiring guitar players.
Music theory - all levels of music theory tuition available. RCM Exam students for the more serious student or as a compliment to practical lessons through innovative fun games and technology.
Music therapy - I have extensive experience using music to soothe and educate children with developmental and learning challenges of many kinds. Let's talk about whether music can help.

Just some of the things Tara's students and parents have to say...

"Tara is a fantastic piano teacher. My nine-year old daughter loves attending her classes. Tara provides instruction on the piano as well as fun learning activities that keeps my child motivated. She also provides age appropriate groupings and my daughter benefits from learning with others her age. Tara also provides feedback and makes suggestions on how my child can improve. She is a very engaged educator and extremely passionate about her role. I highly recommend her!"

Paula Dumouchel

"Tara has an incredible musical gift, which she also fosters in her students. She is knowledgeable, friendly, kind, and always willing to work with you to find the best schedule and best way of learning for each of her students. Our daughter has loved being a part of her music school and we look forward to our continued relationship. We would highly recommend Tara to anyone looking to unlock their passion in music!"

Owners of The Juke Joint Carp

"Tara Lund teaches all 3 of my children piano. She is kind and fun, my children are so eager to go to their lesson each week. All three are learning at their own pace, and Tara has adjusted the way she teaches each of them to best suit their individual learning styles. I would highly recommend Tara Lund to anyone looking for an excellent, motivating and engaging piano teacher for their child"

Liz Heleno

"Tara is a great teacher. As an adult student who is returning to piano after playing as a child, Tara has helped me progress much more quickly than I was doing on my own. She's taught me new techniques to learn the music more quickly, provided helpful insights into the music, and recommended improvements to technical skills. I learn something new in each lesson."

Julia Keffer

"As a student of hers for over four years, I can say that Tara Lund is an excellent piano teacher. She is consistently patient, flexible and has a variety of different techniques to best teach each individual student. Her passion and knowledge are apparent during every lesson and performance."

Charlotte Jerome

"Tara is a lively and lovely piano teacher for students of all levels. I have been a student of her for over ten years and I have always been challenged and progressed Well. I would recommend her as a piano and theory teacher for students of all ages and skill level."
