Introduction: My philosophy as piano instructor is that all my piano students learn to play with good technique and artistry. I have more than 20 years experience teaching piano, which has helped me to learn what is better for each student individually, how to develop their own piano studies plan to achieve their piano performance with artistry and confidence, and how to adapt to the individual pace of each student. I use a combination of piano methods from the new school: Faber, Finger Power, John Thomson, and Suzuki method; from the old school: Hanon, piano studies (etudes) from the classical and romantic period, first lessons in Bach, pieces for beginners and intermediate from Clementi, pieces for children by Schumann, Tchaikovsky, Kavalevsky, Bela Bartok, Prokofiev and others. This is a powerful combination of piano knowledge from the beginning of the piano history. Students realize their improvement in each lesson and can showcase what they learn in recitals that I organize twice a year in a very friendly, fun, and non competitive environment. After each recital we have a social snack time! I teach beginners and advanced students, from 4 years old to no limit. I always adapt to the peace of each student in order to develop their individual skills. With the method that I have created, all my students start to play small songs with good technique and artistry level within 2 to 3 months. My studio is located at Saint John Episcopal Church on 3857 N Kostner, Chicago IL, 60641. Call to book a free trial lessons! Thank you to the parents of my students that all gave me a grade of "5" out of 5, my students made it possible! The process of teaching my students the art of the piano performance. In every lesson there is something new to teach, something to improve. I also enjoy learning and improving as a piano teacher. Every lesson is an opportunity for me to become a better piano teacher as well.

My children had been taking lessons for the past three years and appeared to be getting weary of practicing. We decided to give them the summer off and perhaps seek out a new teacher. Jesus has revived their love of music. Now they fight for time on the piano and have stated, "He makes it fun!" They are super psyched about their recital comming this December. Thank you, Jesus for getting them back on track!

I am so glad to know that I brought them back to piano practice, they will brake a leg in the recital this December. Thank you!

Mr. Garcia has a lot of patience teaching my son. My son was previously in piano lessons for 2 years with another instructor and I felt that he was loosing interest in learning piano, now he is motivated and he improved tremendously. He makes my son feel comfortable and relax. We recommend Mr. Garcia. We are very happy!

Jesus Garcia, has been teaching piano to our 6 year old for nearly a year now. He is very friendly and makes lessons fun for the kids! My child looks forward to her weekly piano lessons and practices after class to impress the teacher. He is very attentive to details and accommodates parents requirements too. He is also extremely patient with the kids and guides them through hard lessons. My kid enjoy's it so much that her younger sibling wants to join the class as well :) !
