I find teaching to be among the most wonderfully energizing activities there is, and believe that it is my responsibility to nurture a life-long love of music in each of my students. I take great pride in being able to captivate the enthusiasm of my students and assist them in their musical development. The ability to quickly gain insight into a student's personality and adjust the teaching style to a student's personal learning style, goals, and personality is imperative in a successful teacher-student relationship, and I consider this one of my greatest strengths. With have over 20 years of performance experience, and 10 years teaching experience, I am able to effectively teach students of all ages and levels. I was fortunate to work with great teachers and renowned pianists, and wish to share the knowledge, enthusiasm, and dedication they gave to me.
Piano Prodigies offers outstanding musical instruction in a creative, encouraging, and dynamic setting. Weekly private lessons balance technical development and theoretical knowledge with artistry: how to construct communicative, engaging, and expressive performances. In addition to lessons, students participate in workshops, recitals, masterclasses, and festivals and competitions.
Elizabeth really was the best teacher my son has ever had. She taught him from the time he was 9-11, and we only stopped working with her when she moved. She was able to inspire him to make steady progress, week over week, even when working on challenging pieces beyond the point that they were new or fun.
How would you describe your teaching personality? My goal is to foster a positive rapport with each student. This relationship is centered around an understanding of the student's personality/interests/goals, and results in mutual respect and excitement to see through the learning process. I encourage students to ask questions and be part of the creative process.
Directions: From Interstate 89, take Exit 17 (US4-W). Turn left (towards Lebanon). Proceed 1.7 miles, then take a sharp right on Bank Street Extension. After half a mile, you will approach a large storage facility (grey building with white doors). Turn right into the parking lot immediately after (between Mason Storage and a small tan house; there is a roadside business listing) and follow to the brick building. Enter through the double glass doors.

Ms. Elizabeth is the best teacher you can find! She is an amazing performer, passionate teacher, and creative composer! She is extremely dedicated to her students! My daughter had been playing the piano for a few years before she started taking lessons with her less than a year ago. Almost immediately after she started lessons with Elizabeth, she practically flooded us with so many wonderful music opportunities!
I cannot believe how she fits all her artistic and creative work on top her busy teaching schedule, but she does it, and she does it with such grace! She is a wonderful person to get to know also. I just cannot think of enough positive words to describe how great she is. I feel so fortunate that my daughter has such an amazing role model. And on top of that, all her advanced students that we have been fortunate enough to hear perform are fantastic as well! We are so excited to see our daughter's progress with Ms. Elizabeth's guidance.

My two daughters have been fortunate enough to be taking piano lessons with Elizabeth since January 2016, shortly after she moved into the area. Elizabeth is truly a gem - as a person, concert pianist, teacher, and composer. She never ceases to inspire her students with her bottomless creativity, energy, passion, and positivity. She is not only an exceptionally dedicated teacher (she is constantly communicating with parents and students about the child's musical growth outside of the allotted lesson time) but an incredible role model to my daughters.
We often pinch ourselves and wonder how we lucked out to find such an extraordinary teacher and dear friend. Do not hesitate to book a trial lesson if she has a slot available. You will not regret it!!

When my daughter's teacher passed away due to cancer, I wasn't sure if my daughter would ever want to work with any other teacher. We interviewed lots of teachers in the area and no one was as good to her. I found Elizabeth through words of mouth and the moment I talked to her I realized that we found a gem! My daughter immediately fell in love with her and since then she has moved up by leaps and bounds.
She always says that her beloved piano teacher sent Elizabeth to her. Elizabeth is a true professional in every imaginable level; teaching, performing, showing love and compassion to her students, exploring because she is so connected (nationally and internationally) and passionate about her job. She not only challenges her students, she has really high expectations of herself too (go to one of her performance)! She is an A+ big city piano teacher happened to live in our little Upper Valley community! We are so lucky and grateful to have her here.

You will not find a better piano teacher than Elizabeth Borowsky. She taught my son from the time he was 9-11, and we only stopped working with her when she moved :. She was able to inspire him to make steady progress, week over week, even when working on challenging pieces beyond the point that they were new or fun. She gave constructive, creative, practice tips.
She helped him find his own techniques that enabled him to get over specific hurdles. She expected him to do better, and so he did. Elizabeth organized multiple events for her students, giving them a chance to socialize and perform. She set up multiple opportunities for peer feedback and ensured that they were always ready for whatever performance opportunities that came their way.
Through the course of these activities, I got to see her interact with students of all ages and abilities, and in every single case, was wowed by the progress these diverse students made from session to session. Elizabeth is a fantastic teacher - if you have the opportunity to work with her, whatever your age, be prepared for major progress ahead!

My daughter Kara started taking lessons from Elizabeth when she was 8 or 9 years old and absolutely adores her. I think Elizabeth is a perfect combination of doing what "needs" to be done to improve technique and artistry, and fun for her students. She's always open to doing what the student wants to do, and I think it is this attitude of combining needs and wants is what keeps her students interested and always pushing for more. You will not find a better teacher; Elizabeth loves teaching and music and it truly shows in her demeanor towards the kids, her affection, and her passion.

I want to thank you for everything you have done for me. Not only are you a fantastic piano teacher, you have become a friend and role model, too. No words can express my gratitude to you. You have inspired me in multiple ways. Twenty years from now I will look back and smile at the memories of these wonderful lessons. I hope you will always continue to teach young pianists!

The progress my son made with Elizabeth far exceeded any expectations we had and demonstrated to me what a wonderful teacher she is. Our son is extremely shy. Not only did he grow as a piano player, he gained more confidence in himself. Elizabeth was able to encourage him to play in a judged competition, which he did successfully and looks back on with pride.
Due to Elizabeth's inspiration, playing and practicing piano was not a chore, but rather an activity he performed happily and voluntarily. Elizabeth was able to impart her enthusiasm and love of playing the piano onto our son. She customized the music and lessons to his skill level and interests while at the same time providing challenges to keep the learning process going.
Once a piano piece was mastered, he was very enthusiastic about beginning the next new piece. Elizabeth is not only friendly and patient, but great at gauging her student's level of knowledge and ability. She is a very positive and encouraging teacher who is able to make confident self-motivated piano players out of her students. I highly recommend Elizabeth as a piano teacher, her passion for music is contagious and she shares her love of music with all her students.
