Started my 10 year daughter for her first lesson last week and already our piano sounding good. She’s building a solid foundation going forward in her lessons.

Sharon is absolutely incredible! My
7 year old took her first piano lesson with Sharon and I observed her teaching style and was really impressed with her patience and overall techniques. My daughter had an easy time understanding the lesson and felt much more confident in her ability to learn piano after just the first lesson. Unfortunately the availability that Sharon had didn’t align with our schedule plus the location was too far from our house so we had to find other options for my daughter

I started taking lessons from Toby in January 2017. I am an adult student that returned to piano lesson after decades. I stopped lessons at 13 y/o. Without lessons, I can read music and "play" the song. But now, with just a few months into my lessons with Toby, I can hear the difference. My songs now have the correct timing, tempo and spirit the composer intended for his songs. What a difference! My husband now recognizes the songs I play. Thanks Toby!

My son has only taken couple of lessons with Mrs. Beckle, but I can see she is very patient, kind and makes my son feel comfortable. She is also very professional which I really appreciate. She is a great teacher, and my son really enjoys the piano lessons.

My two boys (9 and 5) have been having piano lessons with Ms. Toby since last year. Ms. Toby is an accomplished pianist and composer. My sons enjoy her friendly, encouraging and professional teaching approach very much and they enjoy practicing at home. Since Ms. Toby treats each student uniquely, her customized lessons benefits my sons a lot. She helps my sons choose the songs they like and so they are motivated to play. My older son is inspired by Ms. Toby's songs, and he plays his own arrangement on Canon which is very impressive. My younger son has very good progress since his very first piano class with Ms. Toby. She holds two recitals a year at a professional recital hall with a Steinway grand piano. I'm happy to have her as our piano teacher.

Sam is simply put - an outstanding music teacher! My three boys have been taking weekly piano lessons with Sam for about a year now and we have seen tremendous progress in them reading and understanding notes and rhythm. I have also learned so much from watching how Sam tailors the entire lesson in following their individual learning speed, motivating and working around their different personalities! Sam's kind and collected nature along with his "piano whispering" methodologies has given to our family the lifelong gift of music and a great model of dedication and perseverance. We are so grateful to have found our perfect teacher!

Seba is a fantastic piano teacher, who has a vision for her Chromatic Music Academy, is down to earth, very knowledgeable in the holistic approach to piano, and able to teach to all ages. She made me feel very comfortable during our introductory lesson, and I found the initiatial assessment results enlightening. I'm impressed by how much I'm picking up and refreshing on taking lessons for a month so far as an adult, picking up from when I left off at age 10. My only regret is not looking for her sooner! Pricing seems reasonable for the quality of instruction, resources provided, and venue. I have already begun recommending her to my friends and family, and I think you should not hesitate to reach out to (Ms.) Seba for yourself or your child.

Sedat tried hard with my 3y/o whom claimed she really wanted to try piano lessons after a failed attempt at a studio. He was prompt with communication, and scheduling. Unfortunately our kiddo isn’t quite ready but now we have a good source (practice book recommended) to learn with Mom for a bit until the wiggles can be settled for longer than 2 minutes.

My daughter has been playing piano for many years (since she was 5 - she's now 13), but I have watched her desire to play piano slowly dwindle over time. I reached out to LessonWithYou.com to see if they had anybody who might be able to help. I received a response from Kerry almost immediately - she has been extremely helpful and attentive, listening carefully to our situation. She matched my daughter with Christian, and he seems like a great piano instructor. She has only had two lessons so far, but she said to me last night (without prompting), "I don't know what it is about Christian, but I just find myself more interested in practicing." I'm definitely looking forward to seeing where this goes!

We have been with Toby for almost 2 years now and my daughter loves going to her piano lesson. Toby is a very patient teacher which works great with kids. She the type of teacher you would want for your kids. She very passions for music. She also motivates my daughter to composer her own music. I highly recommend her.

My daughter started taking Piano lessons with Ms. Tory
(Matoush Melodies) from August 20201. She goes extra length to make sure kids enjoy their learning process. She gives them options for songs so that kids get to choose what they want to learn for almost every new song. She is super nice with the kids. My daughter tells me several times that she loves her teacher

We are so lucky to have joined Dr. Ali's Piano Studio in San Jose. My daughter loves Dr. Ali and she counts the days between her lessons. Dr. Ali encourages all of her students and works on their music, skills, technique, theory, performance, knowledge, and creative work. Check out her website and youtube channel and you will see the amazing work she does for all of her students. Thank you, Dr. Ali for everything. (T's Father)

When my daughter kept saying she wanted piano lessons, I had NO idea how to find a good teacher. Toby had great reviews on this site, so I took a chance, and the results have been far beyond my wildest expectations.
What’s so fantastic about Toby is she doesn’t have a “one size fits all” approach to instruction. Instead, she developed a lesson plan that best fit my seven-year-old daughter’s interests and style of learning. Most remarkably, she encouraged my daughter to start composing. We now come home from a lesson and my daughter wants to work on writing her pieces right away. I had no idea that within a few months of starting weekly lessons, she could be reading and composing music at such a young age, and I can’t imagine that another teacher would have brought this out in her, but I’m so thankful that she has Toby as an instructor.
From our very first interactions, Toby has been unerringly professional and quick to respond to any scheduling needs. Since she teaches at the college level and composes herself, she has so much knowledge to draw on and a real gift for imparting it to students. She’s also just a cool lady! I’d recommend her to any parent!

Can't say enough good things about Noah.
Noah is very skilled at his craft, and his passion for music comes through at each lesson. He personally tailors his teaching style to your goals and has great attention to detail.
Noah explains not only how to sound good, but why things sound good. He does a fantastic job providing relevant musical examples for every topic we cover. Even coming from a classical piano background, I still learn new things about music theory at every lesson (and he makes it fun!).
I've really enjoyed working with Noah, especially with his kind and patient demeanor. Most importantly, Noah has helped me express myself through music more authentically, without having to overthink everything.
If you have the opportunity, I definitely recommend working with Noah.
