Private Piano Lessons

Individualized Instruction

One of the best ways to learn music is by studying privately with a master teaching artist through individual lessons. This allows the teacher to serve as a mentor and create personalized lesson plans that help students reach their goals and develop discipline and resiliency. Private lessons require additional dedication and a willingness to dive deeply into the world of music.
All Music PLACE students, including private lesson students, engage in music composition activities as a primary and regular part of their learning process. This focus on music creation is integral to the development of 21st Century skills and total musicianship. 

Six Piano/Composition Level:
