Rachel Cousino is from Dubai, UAE, and began learning the piano at the age of 4. Before moving to the United States in the summer of 2018, she taught a private studio of over 20 students of a variety of nationalities and ages, during which time she saw several of her students through their ABRSM exams. Rachel has studied with many different teachers and followed a variety of methods, earning her ATCL piano performance diploma in 2018 from Trinity College London.

Rachel’s vision for her students is to inspire in them the same passion, love, and dedication to music that she received from the phenomenal teachers and musicians who influenced her life. She believes music, in all its various expressions, is meant to be enjoyed, and works to create a safe and engaging learning environment for her students to explore a variety of musical genres and styles.

Not only does Rachel love teaching, she also enjoys playing piano for her church and she worked professionally as a choral accompanist before moving to South Carolina in the fall of 2021. Rachel currently teaches at the Northeast and Cayce locations.
