Equipping teachers.
Empowering students.
Teaching piano can be a challenging and lonely journey, and we've been there, too.
-
Countless hours of googling how to teach hyperactive students who wiggle and seem to have no attention span.
-
Innumerable amounts of time and finances invested in trying to find the perfect fix for your students who struggle to read and play from musical scores.
-
Spending hours brainstorming and scrolling through Facebook groups looking for answers to students' puzzling behaviors.
-
Purchasing every resource and method you can find, but still struggling to find a teaching approach that actually works for your uniquely gifted students.

Meet Elizabeth & Tara
We love teaching gifted and neurodivergent learners and seeing that 'lightbulb' moment when our students get it, and we love helping teachers do the same. This is at the heart of all we do at Creative Piano Pedagogy.
Our goal is to make adaptive pedagogy accessible for all piano teachers, and to empower them with tools so they can confidently meet the needs of students with disabilities and exceptional learners.
“Taking Dr. Davis-Everhart’s course...was a ground-breaking experience for me.
Not only were her tips practical, fun and extremely relevant, but I found that her mindful approach to adaptive pedagogy was taught with such grace, warmth and empathy! I am so grateful I was able to take this course!”
