Tatiana G. says, "My daughter started to take piano lessons with Inna when she was 6. She is now an engineering major in college. Her last piano concert was after her high school graduation. Inna managed to keep her interested and motivated through the hardest and busiest school years, developed my daughter's sense of musicality, taught her to love and appreciate classical music. Inna adjusts the requirements based on each student time, interests, and ability and puts just the right amount of pressure to get them to their individual goals." Read more

LAT says, "Dr. Yulia Lipmanovich tailors her teaching methods according to each individual student and his or her individual goals. Her knowledge of the different music literature and composers is vast and she imparts a style of playing as taught by her very well-known teachers. In addition, she is very patient, understanding, and acts as an excellent guide. Working with her has truly broadened my understanding of Musical Interpretation and more fundamentally, Sound. I cannot recommend studying with her enough. Whether you are returning to the piano after a long hiatus (like I did), or just beginning no matter what the age, you cannot go wrong studying with her. Finally, as a working Concert Pianist, Dr. Yulia organizes a series of Recitals, Student Concerts, Masterclasses, and is very involved in various Festivals. Her students can and are encouraged to participate and from personal experience, I can say that these supplementary activities, in addition to regular lessons, have been invaluable. " Read more

Hi, and thanks for stopping by. I've been on this site for years, but recently, it was reset. So, all my information was erased. I teach all styles, for all different kinds of people. My lessons are extremely fun, and we use a lot of popular music, as well as classics and jazz. I teach my students to improvise as well as learn how to read music. Something that most teachers would never touch. I’ve been doing this since 1991, and I gear my lessons for each individual. Here are some review from over the years: Trevor S. David Kellen has been more than just a piano teacher for me, he's been an intelligent mentor and a respected friend. He

Your Piano Lessons questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.

How much are piano lessons?

Piano lessons cost $40 to $80 per hour, depending on the location, their experience level, and session length. A piano lesson package costs $180 to $350 for five 1-hour lessons. Children's piano lessons and online lessons often cost less than average.

Piano lessons are available for all ages in most cities in the country. Music instructors teach:

  • Music theory
  • Sight-reading
  • Improvisation
  • How to improve playing or technique

At what age should you start piano lessons?

The best age to start piano lessons is 5 to 9 years, though learning how to play the piano doesn't have an age limit. Playing the piano strengthens fine motor skills, increases flexibility, and improves your memory no matter how old you are.

Are piano lessons worth it?

Piano lessons are worth the money and effort invested over time. Playing an instrument can be beneficial for mental health, and cognitive strength. For smaller budgets, book just a few lessons to get the basics down and continue on your own.

How long are piano lessons?

Piano lessons for beginners or children are typically 30 to 45 minutes per session. Intermediate or advanced lessons are 45 to 60+ minutes per session. Most people have 1 to 2 lessons per week.

Can you learn to play piano online?

Yes, you can learn to play piano online through a webcam or virtual tutorials. Search our list of online piano teacher near you to find an instructor. Online piano lessons are often more convenient than in-person lessons and cost 20% less on average.

How do I select a piano teacher?

Start by searching our list of piano teachers, then:

  • Get at least three free estimates to compare.
  • Read reviews on Lessons and Google if possible.
  • Ask for references from current or recent students.
  • Make sure they are kind and personable, especially when with children.
  • Get a written estimate and schedule before the first lesson.
  • Avoid making a large payment up front. Follow a payment plan instead.

After asking questions and browsing reviews, hire the best piano instructor in your area.

What questions should I ask piano instructors?

When hiring piano teachers near you, ask the following questions:

  • How long have you been teaching piano?
  • Do you have a degree in music?
  • What age do you typically teach?
  • What genre of piano do you specialize in?
  • Will you give me a contract or payment arrangement in writing?
  • Will you allow me to choose some or all of the songs we practice?

Reviews for Buffalo Grove piano teachers

Hiroaki H.
Had a trial lesson; understands student needs and proposes a rough curriculum on the spot. Her years of expertise are exhibited through her knowledge and performance.

Inna has been an amazing teacher ever since I started with her as a little kid. She has made learning and playing piano incredibly fascinating. Most teachers just tell their students to play music blindly, without focussing on the details; Inna has not only helped me to read music carefully but has taught me proper techniques and musical theory that has elevated my level of musicality. She really cares about the way that I emote, always spending the time with me to rigorously go over pieces, without seeming overly strict or austere. She has definitely been an artistic inspiration for me and carries with her an incredible passion for music, which has been passed down to me after all these years learning from her. One of the best in the business!

Dr. Yulia is very dedicated and passionate of teaching the student what is needed and necessary to know in the lesson. I've been studying with Dr. Yulia for over 2 years now which my piano performance improved quite a bit. Wouldn't recommend any other instructor except for Dr. Yulia.

Tad has been wonderful! His expertise and training really shine through the lessons with my children. He has suggested specific books that will address their areas of need while also keeping in mind their song/style interests and goals. Tad provides challenging yet engaging lessons that have already expanded their skill level. Always communicative, courteous, and punctual, I would highly recommend Tad to anyone looking for piano lessons.

Dan is an incredibly knowledgable teacher. His experience playing on cruise ships, piano bars and loads of other gigs brings a depth to his teaching that can't be beat. Dan taught me a library of left hand patterns, and right hand riffs that make the blues so enjoyable at home. He has also helped me to translate some of his blues playing to my harp. Very exciting. He's patient, funny and has loads of stories. Highly recommended if you're an intermediate and up player.
