About

Hello and thank you for your interest in violin, viola, cello, or recorder lessons!

If you're considering lessons with me, here's what you need to know:

Advice Consultation Option:

If you're unsure about starting lessons and need advice on instruments and supplies, I offer a one-hour phone consultation for $120. This fee is waived for enrolled students.

For your information, I have 1/2 size and 3/4 size violins/bows available for sale as well as a 13, 14, and 15 inch viola/bows. I will give you more details about what is included with your instrument/bow after you are ready to purchase. The consultation fee is separate from instrument purchase.

Enrollment Requirements:

To begin lessons, I require a commitment to a minimum of six lessons. Sessions can be half an hour, forty-five minutes, or one hour.

Pricing:

$300 for six half-hour lessons ($318 with card payment)

$420 for six forty-five-minute lessons ($438 with card payment)

$540 for six one-hour lessons ($558 with card payment)

Lesson Rates (per session) AFTER initial minimum

Hourly: $95

45 Minutes: $75

30 Minutes: $55

If you sign up for additional lessons in increments of six after completing the initial commitment, you will continue to receive the initial package rate.

If you need fewer than six sessions after the initial commitment, the per-session rate will apply.

Rates are guaranteed for one year with continuous enrollment. However, a break longer than one month may result in a rate increase.

How to Proceed:

If you're ready to receive advice or enroll in lessons, please fill out the lessons.com questionnaire and message me with your availability. We can schedule a phone appointment via lessons.com messaging or text. Please don't inquire about my services unless you are ready to hire me and can afford to use my services. Otherwise, you are wasting both my time and money.

Communication: I guarantee timely responses to all inquiries and expect the same level of commitment. Please contact me only if you intend to follow through with communication.

Payment Information:

Before making card payments, you'll need to sign my consultation and/or lesson agreement. Detailed policies are available upon request for Zelle or Venmo Friend to Friend payments.

Location and Lesson Options:

In-Person: Lessons are conducted at my apartment near North Star Mall in San Antonio.

Online: Available for students outside the local area or for local students who do not wish to commute to my apartment for in person lessons

Additional Options:

Online Technique Course: Designed for students with at least one year of experience, focusing on essential techniques with ongoing access and direct feedback.

About Me:

With over six years of teaching experience and performing with the San Antonio Philharmonic, I tailor my teaching to each student's goals.

Contact Information:

Please review this information carefully before reaching out. If you're ready to commit to advice or lessons, contact me through lessons.com.

Thank you for your interest. I look forward to providing you with quality musical instruction!

Best regards,

Amy Pikler

    Ms. Amy has helped me prepare for various auditions including Region Orchestra. I have made region the past 2 years in a row with the help of Ms. Amy. She really made me understand the importance of fine tuning and the rhythm for any piece we worked on. Ms. Amy has allowed me to gain more confidence in my playing and earn a seat as Concertmaster at the high school I attended. I was able to pay attention to every detail in a piece of music where Ms. Amy guided me in really capturing the essence of a piece. I never felt I was playing bad, but rather I was encouraged by Ms. Amy to take the time to slow down a piece so that I would not rush and by doing so I was improving my playing over time. Ms. Amy was flexible with my schedule which I much appreciated as I had a heavy coursework to do for school. I feel that Ms. Amy has made me a better musician and I will be able to tackle any piece of music I may receive.

    Amy has exceeded our expectations of a viola teacher. She has high standards while still being a source of encouragement. My son looks forward to his lessons and being stretched musically by Amy. She is also an excellent communicator. We recommend her services.

    What I like most about Amy’s studio is her style of teaching. She is a lovely combination of extremely kind and patient but also technically exacting. I have made such huge strides in my playing. She is absolutely the best violin teacher I’ve ever had.
    If you are serious about the violin or viola, Ms. Pikler is teacher for you.

    Amy is an outstanding teacher and musician! She has helped my teenaged son improve his technique and prepare for various auditions. She is very patient and attentive to the student’s needs.
