Hey have to admit I was a little uneasy about taking piano online. I was under the impression I needed to have hands-on instruction, but I was 1000% wrong. Katz Keys is AMAZING from day 1. We worked through multiple songs and we was amazed at my progress. She has two online resources that are great. She is responsive to emails and txt when your in a pickle. I learned about seven songs from Jan to July. She has student contest and an end of season recital. There may be one for the winter, I’m not sure because I started with n Jan. Katz is so sweet, encouraging and upbeat. There were many I thought I sounded looking je cats scratching on chalk board, but she removes ALL self doubt. I’m glad I chose to begin my lessons with her and you will be too!!!

I really enjoy taking Katz piano lessons. She's a very good and patient teacher. She will point out the good and the bad of your playing and will help you through what you are struggling with in order to improve, as well as making suggestions to even better your skills. She has a very bubbly personality that makes it approachable if there's any questions and concerns. She makes the learning environment fun for her students throughout all ages. I highly recommend Katz Keys for piano lessons.

Since day 1 learning how to play the piano has been fun! Kat really makes it a joy to be in class with her and also practice at home. She always has something positive to say about ANYTHING you play and really brightens up when she sees her students figuring out their own unique way of playing. I love that I am being challenged to also make up my own song, something I’ve never tried before! It’s been a fun challenge to test my focus and excitement to learn and she makes me want to come to class every week and learn more. Thank you Kat for being such a fun and encouraging teacher!

Our 8-year-old son has been taking lessons with Kat for over a year now, and we truly appreciate the heart and passion she puts into her students and teaching. First of all, we love the positive values she instills, such as beginning every class with each student sharing what they are grateful for that day. Her style of teaching is patient yet firm, always accompanied by a warm smile, sense of humor, encouraging words and contagious enthusiasm. Also, the teaching technique she uses is unique and effective, as our son has been able to learn quite a good number of songs quickly in a variety of music styles and has confidently participated in several virtual recitals. And for his one-year-of-piano lessons anniversary, Kat gifted him a fun shirt to commemorate the occasion as well as a shareable recording honoring his piano achievements. It was so thoughtful and shows that she is willing to go the extra mile. Kat is truly a gem of a piano teacher (and very talented too!) and such a pleasure to work with!

Kat was SUCH a good decision. As an intermediate player who has some experience, Kat has been a friggen miracle meeting me at the level I'm at and giving me guidance on how to improve. I'd hit a serious plateau before I started taking lessons with Kat and now I can actively feel myself getting better at piano as a direct response to her instruction. Hire her and do not look back.
