FAQ

How qualified are teachers here?

Our staff have graduated from prestigious universities, with the majority of our staff being Berklee College of Music alumni.

Do I need to bring my own instrument?

We have pianos and keyboards in our buildings. We also offer renting of instruments if you want to practice on your own time.

What are lessons like?

Students begin by developing a strong, relaxed hand shape at the piano, which forms the foundation for all future technique. We work through scales in all keys, building finger strength, independence, and fluidity. Students learn to read music notes on the staff, sing scales aloud to reinforce pitch recognition, and complete rhythm exercises to build a strong internal sense of timing. Sight reading is practiced consistently so students grow comfortable playing unfamiliar pieces. As students advance, we introduce music pieces and songs tailored to their level, preparing polished performances for our recitals.

What skill level or age do I need to learn piano?

Our lessons are perfect for all ages and skill levels. We will work with you in your first lesson to find the best plan of study for you.

Where are lessons located?

We have locations in 222 Spring Street, West Roxbury and 220 Reservoir Street, Needham Heights. If you live near these locations or the Greater Boston Area, we have the right lessons for you.

Are there any performance opportunities?

We hold galas in the summer and winter, and we have students perform for guests there. It is the perfect opportunity to showcase what you have learned!
