Piano lessons taught in your home. I've been teaching elementary age students for over 10 years. Teaching students to enjoy piano is a passion of mine. I use creative activities, rhythm games, music and theory activities to teach music concepts, while showing the student that music is fun! Leave the driving to me! ​I make sure each lesson is both fun and enriching for students. Music lessons have other great benefits: better grades, higher self esteem, more confidence, charactor building...... Recitals and Festivals offered but not required.

Summer B. says, "Dr. Low is truly fantastic! My son has been taking lessons from him for 16 months and he is flying through the books. His progress is remarkable and I love listening to him practice! My son can be a challenge to teach. He has an anxiety, ADHD, and an autism diagnosis, but he is high functioning. His interest in music has been such a fantastic outlet for him and he is soaring! Dr. Low embraces his unique abilities & interest and caters each lesson to his needs. He's understanding, patient, and all the things I would ask for in a teacher for him. Dr. Low allows his students be involved in more than weekly lessons also if they desire. It's optional, but my son has elected to participate in additional recitals and exams to earn rewards (ribbons, trophy, etc.). Dr. Low assists in setting these up and without any additional pressure. Not only is Dr. Low a great teacher (to a variety of learners in my opinion), but he is also very organized. He makes it easy on the parents. Each lesson Dr. Low prints out the pieces/skills for my son to practice and is very responsive to texts/emails. As a busy parent, Dr. Low is one person I feel I do not need to ever 'check-up' on. We feel truly lucky to have found him. I would recommend him to anyone without hesitation. -Summer B." Read more

Your classical piano questions, answered

Answers to commonly asked questions from the experts on Lessons.

How much do classical piano lessons cost?

Classical piano lessons cost $40 to $80 hourly on average. Piano lesson packages cost $150 to $360 per month for weekly private lessons in-home or at a studio. Musicians recommend in-person lessons for classical piano playing so that the teacher can correct your hand positions better.

What are classical piano lessons?

Classical piano lessons teach you the traditional playing style of music written by composers like Mozart and Beethoven. You'll also learn important techniques and how to read sheet music of classical arrangements.

How long must you take piano lessons to play classical?

You must take piano lessons for 1 to 2 years with consistent practice to play simple classical pieces. Some people can make faster progress if they practice more often or have prior musical experience.

How long are classical piano lessons?

Classical piano lessons are 30 to 60 minutes long on average. The amount of time varies according to the teacher's style and the abilities of the student.

How do I find the best classical piano lessons near me?

Find classical piano lessons from private instructors by looking through the listings here on the Lessons website. Local music schools sometimes offer virtual lessons online as well.

Prior to hiring a local piano instructor, you should always:

  • Secure a minimum of 3 lesson cost estimates to get a clear comparison.
  • Read their ratings on sites such as Lessons and Google.
  • Talk to students on their references list.
  • Collect a written agreement and a lesson timeline before lessons begin.
  • Wait until after your preliminary sessions to start pre-booking for a month of lessons.

What question do I ask when choosing classical piano lessons?

When you're searching for a piano teacher, be sure to ask these questions:

  • How many years have you been teaching piano?
  • What is your formal music education background?
  • Which classical music composers are your favorites?
  • What is the typical age range of your students?
  • Do you offer a trial lesson, either for free or at a discounted rate?
  • If I don't have a piano, what type of keyboard should I get for practicing?
  • How much practice should I be doing outside of our lessons?
  • What textbooks do I need, and what's their cost?
  • Do you give assignments or pieces to memorize after each lesson?
  • Can you adapt your teaching style based on the individual student's needs?
  • What should I bring with me to our lessons?
  • How many different piano genres and styles can you teach?
  • Can I get a written copy of our agreement and the payment terms?
  • What is your policy for cancelling a lesson?
  • Will I be able to choose some of my own favorite songs to learn?

I really enjoyed taking lessons with Dr. Low. He is incredibly meticulous and dedicated, tailoring his lesson plans to each student. He has helped me improve my piano technique tremendously and enriched my understanding of musical history. During my preparation for competitions, Dr. Low is extremely supportive — offering extra lessons, tips, and overall encouragement throughout the entire process. I really appreciate my time with Dr. Low and the positive impact he has had on me.

Peter Shu helped me apply music theory knowledge into real life playing! He made composition, and playing so much fun, while teaching me so much about gospel, jazz, left hand bass, and so much more! I wish I could take lessons from him again. Thanks for all you do, Pete!!

Daniel is enthusiastic, has a lot of energy, and keeps things fun and interesting for the kids. We've met other potential piano teachers, and when we asked our kids who they wanted to continue taking lessons from, they didn't hesitate in choosing Daniel!
