Susan Traylor provided a comfortable atmosphere during piano lessons. Playing with Susan was relaxing and not intimidating in the slightest. She was incredibly personable as well as kind and informative, making every lesson wonderful.

She has also years of experience, which was demonstrated through her teaching and piano playing as a whole.

Susan takes a well-rounded approach to teaching the piano, from the basics (like scales, technique and music theory) to progressively building a repertoire to simply having fun playing the piano. She is supportive and encouraging, and very patient. I've learned so much from her, and look forward to each lesson.

I started piano lessons with Ms. Susan when I was 5 years old. Learning piano takes a lot of hard work that can sometimes be frustrating, but Ms. Susan made the process easy and full of joy. She is extremely patient and easy-going and an amazing role model for me. Ms. Susan taught me that you can create music from anything and it is a way to express emotions and tell stories. It has now been 9 years since I’ve started playing piano and Ms. Susan has guided me the entire time. Piano brings light to my world and I use any opportunity I can to play. I’m so grateful to have had a teacher as passionate as Ms. Susan to share her love of music with me.

My daughter started taking piano lessons at 6 years old, I (30’s) also took lessons with Susan. Susan lives and breathes music and I credit her with sharing that gift with my family. She is patient and a master at breaking down the piano into actionable and achievable steps for her students. She is also flexible with music choices which helps to motivate her students. Susan is well connected in the Phoenix Music Teacher’s Association and is able to offer her students unique performance opportunities. Lastly, Susan is computer savvy and we benefited great from her skills when we were forced to go online for lessons. I believe she now offers students both in-person and on-line classes.

Susan Traylor is an exceptional piano teacher. She has a warm and approachable demeanor, and takes the time to tailor each lesson to my kids specific needs. She is very patient and encouraging. Overall, I highly recommend Susan to anyone looking for a compassionate and skilled piano teacher.

Very knowledgeable, experienced teacher with patience and enthusiasm. Susan also has a wonderful sense of humor and is an incredibly skilled pianist herself. Good for all age groups.

Ms Susan is an excellent pianist who is experienced in teaching those just starting or reconnecting with their love for piano

Suzy is an excellent, trained teacher. She loves music and her students. She’s very cheerful and encouraging and fun!

As an adult student playing the piano for the first time, Susan made me feel comfortable and excited about piano. She notices and corrects the bad methods I stumble into on my own to make learning the piano enjoyable. Susan has been flexible with my schedule.

Susan is a very enthusiastic teacher and works well with all ages. My sons started with Susan at ages 8 and 10. The boys quickly developed quality skills that made playing enjoyable. We also have appreciated the recitals as we saw children and adults both display wonderful skills with the piano.
Susan is great to meet students where they are and will help them to play the music they want to play. I highly recommend B Sharp Piano Studio. We consider ourselves very fortunate to have found Susan.

Susan is an excellent teacher with a calm and patient demeanor who truly understands how to meet her students where they are. When our daughter started lessons after being self-taught for a while, Susan was able to assess her level, offer appropriate exercises, and most importantly tailor her lessons to really be where our daughter was most successful. Sometimes that meant working on "drills", while other times it was finding music from pop culture and incorporating that into the lessons.
When she went off to college and didn't play as often as she had been, our daughter was initially hesitant to admit that she'd "slacked off"--but Susan's response was so warm and understanding that it made everything OK again.
Sometimes I ask myself how we were so lucky to find such a dedicated, talented teacher who came at exactly the right time, but we couldn't be happier!

Susan is very knowledgeable, kind and patient instructor, and she has outstanding credentials. In the first lesson with Susan, both my boys felt so comfortable and looked forward to their lessons every week. She cares deeply for her students and is always available for support - Susan even took the time to help us find a piano when it was time for an upgrade. Fantastic instructor!

I loved taking my daughter to Susan. She was so friendly and cheerful. The environment was very welcoming, yet offered a strict learning pattern. She taught my daughter to be a disciplined learner while making learning fun.
