April E. says, "I am so happy I found DMS Studios when I decided to start piano lessons. Playing piano was something I wanted to do my entire life and at the age of 38 I finally made the decision to begin lessons. From the beginning, Nathan walked me through some of the struggles that come along with starting piano as an adult. He is always so positive and encouraging. My instructor, Joanna, is kind, patient and a musical genius. I have an anxious and nervous personality, and I'm also hard on myself, so playing the piano in lessons really brought on a lot of stress for me. Joanna helped me with techniques to learn control and keep playing when I mess up which has been the hardest part of my piano journey. Both Nathan and Joanna really understand how to work with adult students like me to achieve success. I’ve been taking lessons at DMS for 2 years now and I never thought I would make it this far and be where I am musically today. I cannot thank my DMS family enough for helping me accomplish my dream!" Read more

My rates are $45 per hour or $25 per half hour and I teach from my home. On a side note, I also offer piano sight-reading lessons focusing purely on developing strong music reading skills (pattern recognition, chunking groups of notes together inst...

Do you have a basic interest in learning the piano or guitar? Do you have certain songs you are just dying to learn to play but don't think you can actually take lessons because, wait, I know. I bet you think you are just ONE of those people that have convinced themselves you don't have the skills or were born without any music talent. Or better yet, you say " I don't have the 'ear' for playing music" Pshaw! lol. I will make you a believer and sooner than you think, you will be playing that song you love but more importantly, you will have the basic knowledge and skills to take with you for the rest of your life for which you can always go ba...

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?

  • 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.
