Piano Lessons with
Piano Teacher Margaret Germain

Piano Lessons in North Port, Fl.

Did you know that piano lessons have been shown to raise test scores in school subjects?  It's true!  The process of learning to play the piano and read music actually changes the brain of young children who take piano lessons.  When these children were tested, their brains had much more development than the children who hadn't taken piano - including the children who took computer classes.


Give your child the gift that could make the difference in their entire life.

Margaret Germain teaches piano lessons that enhance learning. She has developed a method of teaching piano that maximizes the benefits that piano lessons brings.

Margaret uses a music notation reading system that develops music reading fluency and increases spatial IQ.

She gives music training that includes vocal pitch matching and singing.

She uses rhythm training on drums with integration of math concepts.

Some of the learning areas that are worked on are:

Visual discrimination training,

Auditory discrimination training,
Visual / Auditory / Motor integration training,
as well as Visual and Auditory memory training.


Margaret Germain offers piano lessons in her home studio  near LaMarque Elementary School in North Port, or at St. Michael the Archangel Catholic Church on Siesta Key, Sarasota. Music lessons are also offered on guitar, voice, and drums.

Margaret started teaching piano when she was 15 years old, and was fortunate to study with Frances Larimer, noted piano pedagogist, while at Northwestern. It was this early training and the combination of studying music and the learning process that led to the method that Margaret now uses with her students. Much of her educational training focused on overcoming learning difficulties by using the latest educational research techniques to retrain a student's brain. By integrating these techniques into her music teaching, Margaret is able to teach fluency of music reading and musicality, as well as to help her students learn better in all areas of school.
