Reviews for Upper West Side piano lessons instructors

All three of my kids really enjoyed their lessons with Alkistis, who worked around our schedules, suggested great books for their age and inspired them to practice. I was impressed how much they learned and how much they enjoyed learning piano with her!

Sherry has been tutoring my 5 year old boy for a couple of weeks and her level of theory and practical Piano lessons is truly incredible. She is energetic yet keeps him focused which can be hard with a talkative kid. I am so happy with the quality of her lessons. She is truly challenging him within limits and he is more passionate about his practice.

I searched far and wide for a great professional piano teacher and found it in Justin. I had played when I was a kid and wanted to have a hobby that I can enjoy as well as learn from. Justin listened to what I wanted out of my experience (e.g., enjoyable yet challenging) and has tailored my lessons and checks in regularly to make sure he is doing all he can to make the experience even better. He is very knowledgeable about music in general not just piano, so I am not only learning the keys and technical skills, but also about the composer, music history, and culture. He has a kind and patient way to get me through the hard parts but challenges me to do better than what I expected of myself. I look forward to going to my lessons every week--it feels like a musical escape. Also, he is one of very few teachers in Manhattan who has a grand piano to teach on-- it's a treat to play on it. Highly recommended for all types of piano students!

We hired Noah to teach piano to our 8 year old son— and we have been SO impressed. (We were unimpressed with the first teacher we hired, who taught piano in a route fashion, depending solely on making kids memorize how to play short songs in a book, and who relied on a sticker reward system. Ugh.) We fired her and upgraded to Noah. Noah’s pedagogical approach is founded on the idea that a teacher should make it so that eventually the student no longer needs him. Meaning that he’s trying to impart a true understanding of musicality. And he makes every lesson engaging and fun. Words that come to mind are: playful, experimental, talented, warm, and curious. My son literally said, “Noah is enchanting!” He cares about the HOW and the WHY of the piano, and not just the what-can-you-play.
