Group Piano Lessons

Julie Samuelson is a Minnesota Music Teacher's Association member and piano teacher since 1984.  She taught general music at Grace Christain School for 4 years, was the contemporary worship coordinator at Our Redeemer Lutheran Church for almost 7 years. In addition to teaching at Pine Center for the Arts, she is helping high - schoolers form a worship band to rock with Jesus as the Youth and Young Adult Pastor at Lutheran Church of the Master in Brooklyn Center.

Julie's piano classes are designed as a one hour group session with three students in each session. During a one hour session, the students rotate between three music stations: piano lesson, keyboard practice, and computer lab.

Individual Piano Lessons

I took private piano lessons in my home in West Saint Paul from the age of 7-17 with the understanding I teach my two sisters what I learned. Which I did. I began teaching piano in North Branch under the supervision of pianist and organist Kathleen DeBoldt for five years. Kathleen told me of her wonderful teacher Hattie Skinner in Hinckley. When we moved to Pine City I ended up spending 20 summers mentoring with Hattie and she critiqued my students at our recitals each year in May. I continue to be very passionate about sharing my knowledge and my love of music with others.
