About
My studio is located in Winter Garden, Florida where I offer both in-person and virtual lessons.
I hold a MM degree in Piano Performance from Yale University. While playing concerts and collaborating with artists is something I enjoy doing, teaching piano and finding ways to make the learning process fun, creative, and enjoyable has been a great passion of mine for the past 17 years!
I specialize in Zoom lessons and have been doing so for the past two years. My lessons are structured, tailored to the individual needs/interests of each student. You do get to text me with questions or send me a recording throughout the week with questions and get the answers within 24 hours. In addition, you will likely receive a high quality recording to go with the lesson tasks each week. I am very student-oriented, work with parents to encourage healthy practicing habits and strive to provide my students with a positive and dynamic virtual learning experience.

Elena is phenomenal as a teacher and person. She responded only moments after I requested having lessons. She patiently listening to what kind of help I needed and we spoke at length to determine if she could help me relearn how to play, as I had not played in over 4 decades . Now that I’m retired I was eager to get my skills back , and even help my grandchildren learn. Once I began my lessons, I was both inspired and more motivated than ever. Elena gives very detailed instruction and technical support..constantly. She listens to questions I may have and instantly incorporates those areas into the valuable lessons. Always moving forward and broadening my knowledge of theory. I love how organized her approach is, starting with warm up methods , playing various areas of music to share constructive feedback..and Support.. I love how focused she is in tailoring just the right blend of musical Interest and difficulty. She is a hard worker with high standards and has an excellent work ethic…and wants the very best for me..

I was Elena's student for quite a few years, and although it has been a while since she has taught me, I fondly remember my piano-learning-days under her. Elena not only helped me learn pieces I wanted to play, but she also helped me improve my technique. By studying with Elena, I was able to progress to holding my own solo recital before going to college. Elena is skilled at playing the piano (evidenced by her sight reading, performance resume, and sheer ability) as well as teaching students how to improve! Whether you are looking to improve your technique, playing with more passion , or to just play your favorite songs, Elena Mirazischskaya will help you attain your piano goals! Thank you so much, Elena!

My daughter has been taking lessons with Elena for years, and absolutely loves her. As a teacher, she really passes on her passion for piano to her students. Her lessons have been clear and easy to follow, yet challenging enough to help my daughter really push her limits and make great progress. We love Elena and wouldn't use any other piano teacher!!

I took a piano class in 2021-2022 when I was a freshman in high school as a second hand option for a class. But, in the later days of my year I found myself loving piano but not so much the teacher so logically a teacher was needed. What stood out about Elena as opposed to the other teachers I met was that it wasn’t about what she wanted you to do or where she thought you’re skill level was at, it was about where you thought your skill was and what you wanted to learn. She was never impatient no matter how I was doing even if the measure was fairly simple, she was kind, and you could tell she enjoyed teaching as in whatever you needed regarding piano, she would be there to help.

We love Elena! Making music learning enjoyable has been a great experience. We hold our lessons over zoom and my son learned to memorize a song on the piano in a month! I wish I had these lessons as a kid. So grateful to have an awesome piano teacher like Elena

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Children age 4-18, adults 18-65 and above 😊 from very beginners to highly advanced. Some of my students chose to pursue a career in music, other continued taking lessons in college while working on a different degree.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
A free interview/assessment. I design a specific lesson plan based on the individual needs/preferences of each students. Generally, we work on three different aspects of piano playing: warm-ups (technique) and/or music theory; artistry ( includes pieces that introduce a specific playing concept), fun project: this is often an arrangement of music my pupil really wants to play. I specifically include concepts already studied. For certain students, that would be their original composition.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
A Master of Music Degree in Piano Performance from the Yale School of Music.
