While at Music and Arts I was a Flute and Piano teacher remaining fully booked. I believe every student is different and tailor learning to each...

Meryll D. says, "Ms. Jan has been a wonderful piano teacher for my two girls for the past 3 years. She has always been very professional and patient with them. They now both love and enjoy playing on their free time thanks to her, who has inspired them to do their best and love music by teaching them counts and how to read notes without difficulty. My oldest went from playing with only 1 hand to playing Saint-Saens -“The Swan.” I am impressed with the amount of skill they have acquired at their age (10yr and 12yr). Ms. Jan comes to our house with a positive attitude and always has a smile on her face. We love her! If you are looking for a dependable, trustworthy, talented piano teacher who is motivating and kind, I highly recommend her! " Read more

Really getting to know the individual needs of each of my many students.It keeps me on my toes!

Welcome! I have been teaching music for two years. I earned my Bachelor’s in Music Performance and Master’s in Music Education and while studying music discovered my love for teaching. In college, I had the opportunity to help lead a group of forty 4th-6th graders in learning all the string instruments. In my teaching, I focus on building a solid technical foundation while also encouraging students to play by ear. My goal is to help each student not just learn their instrument, but also find the same love for music that’s been such a special part of my life. I believe a learning environment should be structured with the opportunity for studen

Your Piano Lessons questions, answered

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.

Kevin is a great teacher! He is very patient and personable. He individualizes his lessons according to what his students are interested in and goes at their learning pace. I have been taking guitar lessons with him for 2 years now. Started in person then via online when covid hit, I was a first time guitar player when I started and while it has been challenging, Kevin has inspired me along the way to keep practicing and it has been worth it. I have really enjoyed our lessons and am so happy to continue with him virtually since I just moved to Oregon.
