I am an enthusiastic and creative person who truly enjoys sharing the
gift of music with a particular emphasis on the harp. I leave my
student after each lesson with technical and repertoire expectations.
Several of my students have gone on to entertain many different groups
as well as perform with orchestras in the North Bay.

 I am a
veteran music teacher in the public schools, with extensive musical
connections throughout the Bay Area. I have played and taught violin,

instrumental technique and general music appreciation. I will come to
your home (I do not have a studio.)

In my teaching studio I am dedicated to sharing my love for creating music and finding the right musical path for each student. I believe that every person should have the opportunity to learn an instrument, learn the language of music, and discover how exciting and FUN it is to play! I accept students of all ages, backgrounds and abilities and work with you/your child's interests and musical desires to design a lesson that fulfills your individual goals and provides you/your child with a balanced musical background.

 My teaching career started in Brussels area music academies, teaching solfège (sight-singing) while I was a harp student. I also have an extensive piano background. Since moving to California, I have taught many students privately and at university level. I have pursued simultaneously a career focused on solo/ chamber music performance and teaching. It is important for me to leave a legacy, so I am also engaged in music advocacy, writing on harp literature and in arranging, editing and publishing harp music.

I am a pianist/composer living in San Francisco with 30 years of experience teaching piano privately, at all levels and ages. I have coached middle school and high school-aged chamber musicians for about 15 years. I start beginners with a foundation in theory and technique, in addition to repertoire material. I have prepared students for various levels of ABRSM exams. My goal is to provide a relaxed, though disciplined approach. I teach remotely, via Skype or FaceTime. Website: https://janismercer.com.
