Marilyn L. says, "Dave is very experienced, knowledgeable, kind & patient. I always enjoy my lessons. If you are not understanding something he explains in simple terms & does not push you beyond what you are able to grasp. I always look forward to the next lesson & learning more. He never discourages you, but always encourages you to be a better singer or player in a very constructive manner. He makes learning fun. I would recommend him to any age student." Read more

Hi! My name is Angela, and I teach private piano, voice, and music theory. I've been teaching music for over twenty years, and have taught students of many ages (4 to 94) and ability levels. My favorite part of my job is watching long-term students grow and mature as musicians over the course of several years. I believe it's a teacher's highest honor to be able to one day tell a student that it's time to spread their wings and take flight on their own, and nothing delights me more than when my students come to me with pieces they've learned on their own, because they had the desire and the confidence to try something new without me. I am a

Madeline B. says, "My daughter really enjoys her piano lessons with Daniel, even though she initially did not want to study piano. After a few months working with him, she now gets excited when she sees a piano and asks if she can play the songs she’s learned. He follows her lead within his general lesson structure and has made her feel very comfortable with the instrument. She has a lot of energy and Daniel is patient and calm while working with her. I would definitely recommend him as a piano teacher!" Read more

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.

My daughter (age 17) really enjoys her lessons with Daniel. He allows her to choose a range of music she likes and he provides constructive feedback in a patient manner. Lessons are no longer a burden, but something that she enjoys. We feel lucky to have found Daniel!
