About the Author

Tracy Capps Selle has nearly 15 years of teaching experience and she's sharing all her secrets with you. You really can get your kids to enjoy practicing the piano! Piano has been a life-long love for Tracy. It all started when she became pianist of her church when she was only 13 years old. She held that job through high school and then headed off to Virginia Tech. Following graduation, her love of science won out and she become a TV meteorologist. (She thinks of it as a little side-track that allowed her to meet her husband--also a TV meteorologist!) Through it all, Tracy never lost her love of music. After becoming a wife and mom, she got back to those roots. She's been teaching piano for more than 10 years and loves every minute! Her passion is encouraging kids to find their love of music and she loves giving parents pointers on how to make that happen. Her focus is not only getting kids excited to practice the piano, but also helping students have better quality practice. In her spare time, Tracy loves to read, crochet, and hike with her family. She's also an advocate for Type 1 Diabetes. Her son was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes in March 2010. You can visit her website at tracyselle.com
