Sorry this pro can’t do your job, but we know other pros who can.
Introduction: Online Piano lessons: Music theory is taught with chords and scales. The lessons focus on sight reading and improvisation. My lessons are fun and engaging. Lessons are by FaceTime, Zoom, Skype and Hangout. •I am a Pianist and perform at Reed and Greenough, an upscale Piano Lounge in the San Francisco Marina. I play and teach current Top 40's, Standards and Contemporary songs. 20 years of experience teaching piano to students of all ages and abilities • Play and teach classical, jazz, pop/rock, old standards and new pieces. • Teach theory, harmony, ear training, and improvisation. • Music should be fun. Make learning to play an instrument enjoyable, and have it become an experience that will last a lifetime. • Students are taught to sight-read and play songs with the use of scales and chords. • Give every student the skills to play a Chopin waltz as well as a pop tune currently on the radio. • Open the student's mind to a whole new world of composers and their music. When taught the right way music is a rewarding and enriching experience. Seeing one play piano the first time and the joy of creating music.

Mr. Kelly, He's patient, we've been trying to get into the zooming, but I have some trouble in opening it, Mr. Kelly is pleasant to talk to, prompting, to the piano lesson. I wish i could continue with the piano lesson with him now, but too busy with work.

Kelly’s approach to music theory had me playing chords and REAL SONGS (with both hands!) by the end of my very first piano lesson EVER. He’s patient and encouraging, while pushing you out of your comfort zone. Do NOT hesitate to book him!

Kelly is an amazing teacher. 100% on time and sometimes even goes over time just to make sure that I had fun and know what to practice on my own. He's patient, engaging and really friendly. I am 31 yr old and I do not feel embarrassed at all hitting all the wrong keys in front of Kelly. Best piano teacher there is out there! I would recommend him to my family and friends.

Kelly is an enthusiastic teacher! He is willing to spend over time with my kids and makes them engaged. My kids always look forward for his lessons. He also provides my little four year old daughter and myself free lessons! We like him a lot and highly recommend him!
