Teaching piano is my passion. I teach all levels and age groups (4-85). I have a Masters of Music in Piano Performance from George Mason University and also studied privately at Peabody Institute and with renowned concert pianists in Washington DC, Austria, and Germany. I performed at the Kennedy Center, the French Embassy, and many local venues.

I have been teaching students ages three to 83 for over thirty years! I love teaching very young beginners, but at the same time I also enjoy working with intermediate to advanced students. My emphasis is on technique although I also try to make sure my students develop a love for music and enjoy playing. I have a degree in Piano Performance and have had many world renowned teachers who have taught me so much and I have always tried to pass on what I learned to my students. I can honestly say that my students love me because although I am strict, I make learning fun for them. I have had many students win competitions and scholarships and I ha...

Your Piano Lessons questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.com.

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.

  • How long have you been teaching piano?
  • Do you have a degree in music?

Reviews for Rockville piano teachers

Recent success stories from people in the Rockville area.
Karina F.
Priscila is an extremely talented and knowledgeable photographer and to add to that a very patient and enthusiastic teacher. She is hands-on with composition, camera adjustments and explains the whys of what she is suggesting. Her classes are very informative but fun at the same time. Definitely time and money well spent.

Justin has been very patient with my 8-year old who began with no knowledge of piano. It has now been about 8 months since he started and we've been extremely impressed with the level at which he can now play. Justin is very knowledgeable, is an accomplished pianist, and knows how to adapt his teaching to each individual student. We would highly recommend Justin to anyone interested in learning how to play.

I began taking accordion lessons from Mike Rubin in June of 2020 after many years of not playing. Mike is an accomplished musician who can effectively share his skills with his students in an organized and clear manner, as well as being understanding and encouraging. Most of all he is willing and able to teach to the student's priorities and allows you to set the agenda for what you want to learn. I would highly recommend him.

I am an adult piano learner with a musical background in the voice especially. Aiesh is a kind and friendly teacher. She cares about the success of the student. I like the selection of books and other materials that she uses. For me it helps go over music theory well and solidifies it. Aiesh is good at pointing out when you need to play differently to match what is written in the music. She is very good at encouraging you both when you have done well and when you need to improve. I had a very positive experience!

It is great pleasure to share my experience here. Ms Bella is my son - Eric's first piano teacher. Eric took piano lessons with Bella beginning September 2013 and he stayed with Ms. Bella ever since until she left Syracuse in December 2016. Ms Bella is good at teaching her students according to their levels of knowledge and ability. She not only taught the basic skills and emphasizing on scales and fingering, but she also focused on the dynamics, on how to bring color to the music piece. She was also able to impart her enthusiasm and love of playing the piano onto Eric. Rather than working directly from a piano lesson book, she would select and play difference pieces of music to allow Eric to choose what he wants to learn. She also encouraged Eric to find out more about the composer of the music he played. By doing so, Eric became more interested in practicing and playing piano. Ms. Bella is friendly and patient. She would praise Eric's accomplishments and acknowledge each newly learned measure of music. She was very proud of each student and was evident during recitals that were held twice a year. Ms. Bella plays an important role in fostering Eric's interest in music. It also helped him to learn other music instrument with the greatest of ease. I respect Ms. Bella for many of her qualities. I highly recommend her as a piano teacher and I am envious of her future students who can experience her passion and love of music.
