I usually never write reviews, but this is one I felt I really needed to express. 

A few years back I happened to hear about a piano teacher in our neighborhood......her name was Antonella Sotera Caporale. Truthfully, I had no idea who she was, but she lived pretty close so I thought I'd take a chance and send my kids to her for piano lessons. I  started to realize the kids were learning very quickly! I knew she was very mild mannered and had excellent teaching skills just by what the kids were telling me. I actually thought she was just the typical piano teacher all the kids in the area went to, but now I can explain why my children were learning so much and playing very well!  I sat in on a lesson one day just to observe. After the lesson, I asked Antonella some questions about her very modest self. I then learned she is Italian from Sicily and she is a true professor of music with many degrees not to mention she is also a Maestro in voice and can sing Opera! She teaches theory as well, so there is a complete understanding of music! I also learned she has written books on how to play the piano that students can easily understand! I'm laughing to myself, because it was just by chance I found her and it dawned on me later, her fee in comparison to her ability was nothing, Ok, I know i'm going on and on, but teachers who are so dedicated to their students are hard to come by. If you read this Antonella, I just want to say thank you..... my children can now enjoy playing the piano for a lifetime!!! Sincerely, a very happy mom! Oh, BTW, I heard you teach children and parents together and seniors as well! I also heard you teach online and I have an incapacitated family member who would like to start lessons, so this will work out perfectly!!! Again, a very happy mom!!!
