Sami G. says, "My 17 year old daughter has been taking lessons with Barbara for the past 5 years. In additions to voice, she has learned piano, sight reading and music theory. Barbara’s focus on teaching fundamental skills, sound basics and how to properly warm up and care for your voice have allowed my daughter not just to learn to sing but to grow and develop independently as a singer. Barbara’s knowledge and expertise equal what you would expect to find in music conservatory voice professors, and in fact, my daughter has had college professors and other professionals complement “whoever is your voice teacher” after hearing her perform. We are truly grateful for the expert instruction, caring and dedication Barbara provides and would highly recommend her to any singer at any level." Read more

I focus on enjoying the process of learning and exploring music, rather than the idea of performing alone.I encourage that to my students and try to find ways to make the process enjoyable and exciting for them.I believe that playing music as well as learning music should always be a fun and a joyable experience. Music is universal and very personal at the same time, so I always try to be sensitive to how each student perceives and learns music as each one of us is unique and develops in his or her own way. The process of constantly discovering and exploring music and it’s benefits.I enjoy seeing the positive effects it has on my students and...

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.

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?

Becky S.
So many things! Not only is she very knowledgeable about what she teaches, but she's good at making it relatable and enjoyable. She's also firm enough to help me push forward while being gentle enough to boost morale and keep me confident rather than discouraged. Working with Barbara helped me develop a deeper love of music, experience growth in my musicianship, and develop confidence that helps me even outside of music lessons. I'm grateful to have been studying her for the past 4 years!

Glafkos is extremely professional and talented musician, very passionate about the music. He has a great attitude and has been very patient teaching my children the piano. His teaching techniques make it easy to understand new complex pieces, he is very thorough and pays attention to small but important details. Glafkos encourages not only to learn how to play the piano, but to understand the music from the inside. My children always enjoy his lessons. They started taking lessons with Glafkos almost 5 years ago and they have made a great deal of progress in their playing and more important have developed an appreciation to the beauty of classical music.

He's a great teacher: encouraging, but also knows when and how to critique and not discourage a beginner. Makes sure it is challenging, but not overwhelming. Encyclopedic knowledge of jazz and music theory. Definitely recommend!

Joe recently came to us to teach our twin sons, beginners and age 6.5. On his first visit he got them excited about piano and learning and was able to teach them concepts they grasped immediately. He has the gift to encourage to do well in a playful but firm way that speaks to kids. I highly recommend his teaching approach and we look forward to continuing instructions with him.
