Piano Lessons with Stela Popa
Stela Popa was born and educated in Romania where she earned a Masters Degree in Piano from Iassy Conservatory/University in 1973. In 1983 she moved to Regina where she was introduced to Dr. Suzuki’s Talent Education method of teaching piano. She loved the fact that in Suzuki teaching parents are a big part of the program, helping the students at home with daily practicing.
She became an accredited Suzuki piano teacher in 1986. In keeping with Dr. Suzuki’s principles of lifelong teacher education she took countless summer institutes and workshops across North America to study with masters from Japan, the U.S.A., and Canada. For the last several years Stela has been the president of the Saskatchewan Suzuki Piano Teachers Association, as well as being actively involved with the Regina Suzuki Piano Association.
After teaching piano both traditionally and by the Suzuki Method at Sisters of Our Lady of Mission Music Studio for a few years, Stela joined the Conservatory of Performing Arts in 2005. Stela is dedicated to her students and works hard to help the parents and the students in their piano playing and practicing skills.
