About

Vlada’s Music Studio is committed to providing the highest quality music education in an enjoyable and comfortable atmosphere. Our main goal is to teach children to understand and enjoy music as well as to develop a love for Music throughout their life. For beginner students, lessons are based on a combination of popular and classical repertoire, focusing on learning notes, rhythm, musical terms, ear training, and famous composers. As students progress, they are offered to start the Royal Conservatory of Music (RCM) repertoire and prepare for the RCM exams. Outstanding students will be offered to participate in various competitions.

Margaret learned to play the piano at the age of 5 and completed the Royal School of Music (London) Grade 8 at the age of 13. Her musical journey was mixed with her other academic pursuits with her obtaining a Doctoral Degree in Social Work and attending Harvard Business School’s Executive Education Program. Her passion for music led her to obtaining a Master Degree in Arts in Music as well as attaining First Class Honor in Grade 10 at the Conservatory of Music (Canada) and Distinction in Associate of Trinity College London (ATCL) piano performance.
Music for Margaret is more than learning to play an instrument. It is a life-long tool to connect with others using a universal language which touches the heart and soul of humankind. Margaret enjoys teaching piano and seeing students, young and old, develop this valuable means of expression.
Throughout her experience in piano teaching, Margaret believes that it is important to start from where the student is and know their strengths and challenges. Nothing is more rewarding than to see her students enjoy playing music and be confident to show others – and themselves- who they are and what they are capable of.
