Piano Lessons in Tarzana, CA

Instruments: Piano

I do like to create my lesson plans based on the individual and how they particular learn and receive instruction. Everything that the student learns will be in very small pieces. No particular piece will go for over 20 minutes in lesson. This way, the student will learn and build from consistence and repetition. These two values are extremely important in the early stages of development so that it can build good habits. Read More

I have taught private lessons with the guitar, piano, didgeridoo, ukulele.

Each lesson I give them a focal point like learning a scale and get them to focus different musical aspects such working on fingering, rhythm, tone, loudness or softness, phrasing. Read More

I started teaching piano to both children and adults in high school. One of them was 5 years old, the other was 6, and another was 13 years old. I've also taught a 19-year-old for a short period of time. For the two kids who were 5 and 6, they were total beginners at piano and did not know anything about piano so my main focus was to introduce them to this instrument and teach them the basics of music theories, scores, and postures.

I've found that being flexible and adaptible is most important to me, as everyone learns in a different way. I place a lot of importance on following student interest and goals as well, since it doesn't matter how great your instruction is if you're bored and don't want to keep playing. I think every student should get as much out of their lesson experience as they want, whether that means a more casual experience where you're not practicing too much throughout the week, or holding my student more accountable if they express more ambitious goals.
