Ann Gore, a native Houstonian, is an accomplished performer who began piano studies at the age of six. She holds a Bachelor of Music in Piano Performance from the University of Texas at Austin, where she studied with the renowned Dr. Lita Guerra under a Presidential Scholarship.

In addition to solo piano performance, Ms. Gore frequently performs in chamber music ensembles and has been under the tutelage of the Miro Quartet.

What I Offer

PIANO LESSONS

Piano Lesson

Private, one-on-one piano lessons for children and adults of all levels. Each lesson is tailored to the specific needs of each student and covers music theory, technique, and music history. 

MUSIC THEORY AND EAR TRAINING

Piano Note

A strong music education requires a sound foundation in music theory and ear training. These are included in piano and violin lessons and can also be a supplement to students with advanced performance or composition interests.

ONLINE PIANO LESSONS

Violin over Sheet Music

Virtual piano lessons via Zoom or FaceTime from the comfort of your home. Online lessons are as effective and engaging as in-person classes, and adding technology to the mix will allow us to explore more topics and activities than traditional lessons.

MAKE-UP POLICIES

Make-ups can be scheduled so long as lesson cancellation is given at least 24 hours in advance. There are no make-ups for lessons missed by students unless due to sickness or inclement weather. In case of student sickness, lessons can be held virtually at the same lesson time or rescheduled. Lessons missed by the teacher will be made up at a mutually convenient time.

BOOKS AND MATERIALS

I will select and can help order the appropriate books and materials for each student if needed. Most beginners will start with a method book that will be supplemented with classical and technical books as they progress. 

​

Adult beginners may also choose to begin with a method book and start with proper technique. I'm happy to teach any genre of music to help you reach your musical goals.   

EVERYTHING YOU NEED TO KNOW

Frequently Asked Questions

HOW LONG HAVE YOU BEEN TEACHING?

I have over 10 years of teaching children as young as 3 and adults in all phases of life. I take pride in helping my students find the best ways to learn music and achieve their goals.

WHAT IF I DON'T HAVE A PIANO OR KEYBOARD?

I offer free consultations to get to know each other and discuss books and other concerns. This way, you can gauge whether piano lessons are right for you or your child. I'm also happy to help select a piano or keyboard that best meets your needs!

DO YOU HOLD RECITALS?

Yes! I organize spring and winter recitals for my younger students. Additionally, I organize a summer get together at my studio if enough students are available. 


For adults, I organize studio recitals where students can play for each other if they choose.  

WHERE DO YOU HOLD YOUR LESSONS?

Lessons are located at my home studio near Briar Forest and Seagler Road or in your home with an additional travel fee.
