Ruben Aldana says, "Its been an incredible experience to have Eli as my jazz piano teacher. Ive been able to see concepts much faster than learning on my own. He has profound knowledge and is incredibly talented. He also listens very intently to what Ive been trying to accomplish and does not withhold knowledge. I absolutely recommend him as a teacher. Great person too."See more

Jeanluc G. says, "I really appreciate this young man’s professionalism. He is worth every dollar. He followed all directions and satisfied my guests’ requests, as he familiarized himself with the music of the last three decades on the piano. My guests were very satisfied. I would definitely hire him again for my next party or gathering."See more

Cassandra D. says, "Harrison is an incredible piano teacher! He is wonderfully patient, kind, and brings a fantastic positive energy to every single lesson, making the entire experience so much fun. I’ve been his student since January 2026 and each session is filled with so much knowledge yet it doesn’t feel like a chore. He goes beyond just telling me about technique and theory by shows me exactly how to move my body so I can play with total ease. Even had a broken pinky and he knew exactly how to pivot our lessons during the recovery! His creative approach breaks down chords perfectly, completely unlocking the ability to play by ear, improvise, and recreate songs. With the chords and ear training I could easily hear a song and start jamming out on a piano on the spot, which is a great party trick :). Harrison helped me find my own musical voice in the most encouraging environment possible. I cannot recommend him enough!"See more

For adult students, we offer flexible and encouraging lessons tailored to personal goals, whether that means learning classical music, pop songs, singing, or simply enjoying music as a lifelong hobby. In addition to weekly lessons, Music Pathway Studio regularly hosts student recitals, masterclasses, workshops, adult music salons, choir programs, and community music events.

Katie C. says, "I had a piano lesson with Dr. Kreeger and we worked together brushing up on piano technique I had lost over the years. Dr. Kreeger was very fast at responding to my request in the Thumbtack app and we were able to set a date and time quickly and efficiently. Our lesson was via Zoom and he watched me play a couple of different pieces I was learning on my own. He was able to encompass all areas of playing piano that if practiced consistently, would help improve my technique over time. We discussed everything from proper posture and set up, body mechanics, and to how to best stylize phrasing of some of the music I was learning. I appreciated his approach to technique and how to practice; he was able to tailor the lesson to meet my specific needs and help me practice more effectively. I hope I can work with him again in the future and would highly recommend him if you are also looking to take piano lessons!"See more
