I have been teaching piano for more than 20 years. I work with my students on a combination of music theory, technique, and sight reading to make sure they develop a holistic music knowledge and improve their performance skills. I also love to prepare my students for concerts and public events so they can put their knowledge into practice outside of their comfort zone.

I let the student tell me what they'd like to learn. If someone says, "I want to learn guitar," I will ask them what they want to play once they learn the basics (if they are beginners), and tailor the subsequent lessons to that end. I believe, as every person is an individual, so should their guitar instruction be individualized. If two students both want to learn an E chord, I will teach them the standard way of playing it, but if I sense one or the other would learn better in a different way, or within a specific style of music, I do my best to adapt to their unique way of learning to play. I love playing guitar and I am good at it, so it ...

Maria Khavin Piano Studio

Maria Khavin Piano Studio

Serves Kirkland, WA
Maria Khavin started her musical journey in St. Petersburg, Russia, at a young age. She first approached a piano long before starting lessons, as she loved to listen to and attempted to play some themes from Mozart’s “Jupiter” Symphony by ear--and succeeded! Because of that, she credits the composer and the Symphony as her ‘musical awakening’ point. Growing up in a musician’s family (her mother being a violinist and a teacher), she attended numerous concerts, opera and ballet performances, thus developing a keen ear and passion for classical music in many of its forms. While in Russia, she studied music professionally for over twelve years, ...

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?

  • Ask for references from current or recent students.

Reviews for Kirkland piano teachers

Recent success stories from people in the Kirkland area.
Ray H.
I had always wanted to learn piano and I wanted to have something that my kids and I could learn together. I needed someone who was going to be good with both adults and kids and Rachel fit that perfectly. Rachel helped me by being so patient and encouraging. She made the learning process really fun but always challenged us to try to push ourselves in our learning. Her encouragement helped us want to practice in between lessons and we looked forward to her visits. She helped grow our love of learning music instead of making it feel like a chore. We were always excited to learn new songs and new lessons. My kids were very comfortable learning from Rachel. When they were struggling or made mistakes, her encouragement helped them to push through and make great improvements. I would highly recommend Rachel as a piano instructor to people who want someone to foster an enjoyment of music and instill artistry in their lives. ~ Diana Milligan
