Introduction
I have been teaching piano for over 20 years , I’ve had well over 1000 students of ALL ages ! I consider each child as an individual who must be SEEN. The key to successful teaching is to understand your student , find their strengths and motivations, and grow their love of music ! Since I specialize in the youngest beginners ( starting at age 4 ) I feel that it is vital to tap into a child’s natural exuberance for music so that they will WANT to play piano! Music is a magical portal through which I help them walk! Visit my insta page for student videos ( la petite musique school)

I highly recommend Miss Lori - La Petite Musique! Both of my children have gained so much from her piano instruction. She brings warmth and a love of music to her instruction that I am so grateful my children have experienced. My daughter, who is currently in high school, has been taking lessons with Miss Lori for 10 years now and Miss Lori has provided the foundation for my daughter's love of music. We are so thankful and encourage anyone who is interested in pursuing lessons to reach out to Miss Lori!

Being a student for about eight years at La Petite Musique has given me the opportunity to not only learn piano, but compose my own music. It is a blessing to be learning from the greatest teacher Miss Lori Hoffman, and to be able to fully express myself through music. Not only is Miss Lori a musical genius, but she is also the most generous, loving, and incredible person I’ve met. I would go to class every week and come home feeling like a new person. Being in class has expanded my creativity and gave me a special connection to the piano that is indescribable. It is an incredible environment that can bring out happiness and positivity. It has definitely changed my life and I would do anything to relive those classes. Everyone who is a student at La Petite Musique will leave with such good spirits, all thanks to Miss Lori.

I am so grateful for Ms. Lori! Her technique for teaching my young boys piano (they were 5 yrs old at the time) was truly brilliant. They are now 10ths, 9yr twins and they are enjoying working on more challenging pieces and love music. You will not find a better piano teacher!

    If you are interested in taking lessons , we can have a brief phone or zoom call to introduce ourselves to one another . After that, I offer a discounted first lesson to see whether we are a good fit!

    I have literally studied piano since I was 4 years old. I taught at several conservatories in NYC and in NJ before opening up my own music school in 2001. I have since had over 1000 students .I have also been a musical director for regional theater as well as in local schools ,both public and private .

    For the winter holidays, my students usually do a live performance in a nearby theater showcasing their piano and vocal skills.
