About

Building Musicians for Life

I am Erin Tabatabaei, a pianist and teacher with over four years of teaching experience. My musical training includes the Royal Conservatory of Music curriculum, completion of the RCM Level 10 Practical Examination, and Harmony studies. I am currently working toward the Associate Diploma (ARCT), the RCM's highest performance credential.

My teaching combines strong technical foundations with musical expression, helping students become confident, independent musicians. I teach students of all ages and levels, from complete beginners to more advanced pianists, with lessons tailored to each individual's goals and interests. Whether a student enjoys classical repertoire, contemporary music, or examination preparation, I strive to make learning both challenging and rewarding.

In addition to teaching, I regularly perform in community settings, including nursing homes and church services. I also share piano performances online through Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube, allowing me to connect with a wider audience and continue growing as a musician.
