Rose is an outstanding piano teacher. She has an infectious enthusiasm and love for music, as well as excellent teaching skills. My daughter truly loves having her for her teacher. Sometimes my daughter may have some difficulty working through a piece, but Rose always finds a way to help her through with positive encouragement and technical expertise. Many times after a lesson, my daughter will tell me how much better she feels about her music. Rose finds a way to balance understanding of insecurities while also challenging my daughter to stretch herself to her full potential. I have seen my daughter grow in her love of piano, her understanding of music history and theory as well as becoming more technically proficient. -- Jenny
I highly recommend Rose McCathran. In the two years that she has taught piano to our middle school daughter, we have discovered that Rose not only possesses a seemingly bottomless depth of music knowledge (full of entertaining anecdotes), but also teaches with an unusual degree of creativity, passion, and psychological finesse. Rose has enriched our daughter's life far beyond the learning of an instrument. Rose's love clearly lies with teaching classical music. -- Andrea Eberly, MD
