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 Level 9 Harmony studies. I am currently working toward the Associate Diploma (ARCT), one of the RCM's highest performance credentials.

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.
