Mikki C. says, "We love Ms. Julie! My boys played in their school talent show after taking lessons for only 2 years. 3 people came up to me to ask who they take lessons from because they played so well and had such challenging music. She has inspired them to play harder than they thought they could. She also works with them to find music that they are excited to try (Star Wars, of course) :)" Read more

In that position, I had the opportunity to accompany solo voice, band and string students in local and state competitions. I also enjoyed a brief time as the Music Librarian for the SMSD before starting a family. I've also enjoyed playing for many weddings and local community events.

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.

Reviews for Olathe piano teachers

Shara E.
Mrs. Dean does a wonderful job with my kids. We have been with her for 4 years, and are very pleased with the musical progress our kids have made! Julie is very patient and never says a critical word. After hearing my kids play piano people often ask where we study. As a musician myself it was important to me that the kids get a well rounded education and learn to read music and learn music theory, which they definitely are getting.
