Experienced tutor in Piano in Rockford, Sheri offers private lessons tailored to your needs.

Very kind and patient with my six year old. Very knowledgeable about piano and you can see her passion for teaching others

Everything really. Our daughters have enjoyed learning piano from Mrs. Pape and we wouldn't change a thing. Very professional and easy to work with.

Mrs. Pape is a great teacher: patient, easy to talk to and a good listener. Always there to help you and give suggestions on how to advance yourself. You get much more personalized attention with private lessons my daughter loves working with Mrs. Pape.

My now 12 yr old daughter has been taking lessons here for the past 4 years. Mrs. Pape is kind, patient and my daughter adores her! Her skills have grown so much and she enjoys performing in the recitals with confidence. We are so glad to have found Mrs. Pape and continue to look forward to her weekly lessons.

Mrs. Pape is an excellent piano teacher! She teaches with lesson plans and molds her students into perfection. My daughter has been learning piano for almost 4 years now and my son started his voice lesson.

Amazing music teacher, cares about her students and most of all very knowledgable with all kinds of genres… Highly recommended

Mrs. Pape is an excellent teacher, of all ages. I started my lessons in 2021, at age 72, and am still taking them and continuing to learn. Mrs. Pape is kind and thorough in her teaching, and makes taking lessons a pleasure, and not a burden. I am progressing at my own pace, and am happy doing so. I’m sure that her other students are doing the same. I am very happy and proud to be taking lessons from her, and plan to continue to do so long into the future.

Mrs. Pape has been an amazing piano teacher for my daughter! She’s patient, encouraging, and makes every lesson something my daughter looks forward to each week. My daughter has already learned so much about playing piano and reading music, and she’s excited to start voice lessons with Mrs. Pape in the future.

Our experience has been wonderful. Our son has had lessons with Mrs Pape for over 4 years, close to 5 now. He love's Mrs Pape. She is very patient with him even as he struggles with lessons and practicing. The lessons are affordable and I feel like we get alot for what we pay. We like that there are only 2 recitals a year so the children can practice their recital pieces longer and polish them up. Overall our family 's experience has been wonderful.

She is kind , very encouraging. I came to music late in my life and she is the perfect teacher for me.

Mrs. Pape is patient and kind.

Very well, I love her sense of style, her humor, her class, she's very well informed and very polite too. She will teach you very well

I have been taking piano lessons from Mrs. Pape for 6 years. I started as a junior in high school with no musical experience. Mrs. Pape is an excellent teacher- very patient and cares about her students. She wants you to understand the concepts taught and has always adjusted the pace for me as needed. Very fair pricing. There are spring and fall recitals that students can participate in, which have helped me be more comfortable with performing for an audience. Playing piano is relaxing for me, and it is incredibly rewarding to see how much you improve as time goes on. I am grateful to have Mrs. Pape as my teacher- I only regret not starting sooner! Would highly recommend for students of any age and experience level.

I’m a 75 year old woman who has been taking lessons with Sheri Pape for 7 years. I started taking lessons after I retired to fulfill a lifelong desire to learn to play the piano. I had zero experience when I started taking lessons. While I probably haven’t progressed as fast as a younger student, I’ve gone way beyond the basics. Sheri is a patient and encouraging teacher. She adapts her teaching style to fit each individual student’s needs and interests. She is very caring and genuinely wants her students to succeed and progress. It’s always a pleasant experience to go to my lessons. I would highly recommend her to any student of any age.
