An excellent trial lesson. It’s my first piano lesson. I have some classes in music and midi, but I don't know how to play the piano very much. Meng helped me a lot.

Dr. Francis Hon, DMA | New York
Dr. Francis Hon, DMA | New York
Dr. Hon is an amazing piano teacher. I came to my first lesson with years of music experience in tow, but very limited piano proficiency. After the first lesson I was playing a full song and some rather amazing exercises. If you're looking for a knowledgeable, patient, fun piano teacher, Dr. Hon is the guy!

Jon Schneider
Jon Schneider
I've been taking piano lessons with Jon since the beginning of May 2017. Jon is as great a teacher as I could have asked for. It's evident that his goal is to see me reach my full potential as a piano player. Jon's encouragement has been instrumental in my growth as a piano player. In areas that I might doubt myself, Jon shows confidence in me. My lessons with Jon are focused, productive, and challenging. Jon provides feedback in an honest way, in the interest of developing my ability as a piano player. Jon's easy-going demeanor creates an environment that is conducive to learning. I am so pleased to have Jon as my teacher. My growth as a player has been due, in large part, to the things I learn during my lessons with Jon. I am excited to continue taking lessons with Jon, as I have seen his teachings come to fruition in my piano playing. I recommend Jon to piano players of all skill-levels.

Randy is the perfect piano teacher -- he is knowledgeable and flexible. Each lesson is customized to my experience. I have played guitar for 25 years and what I have learned from Randy in 3 lessons has been worth its weight in gold. Highly recommend!

We are very lucky to know and have Ms. Lu to teach our daughter the piano lesson. She is skilled, serious, patient, joyful and fun. Our daughter has no prior piano experience but immediately fall in love with the instrument and teacher Lu. Her teaching method is thorough and instructive, which helps build a solid foundation for kids to develop their interests and skills in playing piano. We would certainly recommend her to any one who wants to learn piano.

Anahid Syourapian Piano School
Anahid Syourapian Piano School
Recently, I hired Anahid as my piano teacher via thumbtack.com. I appreciated her prompt, clear and direct reply to my inquiry for a piano teacher. Anahid is a friendly person and a talented pianist. I am an adult beginner who has only had lessons as a child. Through the lessons that I’ve had thus far with Anahid, I am realizing that I’m learning so much more than I had from my childhood piano teacher. I’m learning more than just how to read the notes – Anahid teaches me how to make the music sound beautiful and she shows me how I can read this information in the music. Additionally, Anahid understands that adults may be motivated by different musical choices than a child, which can make the lessons more satisfying. Anahid also offers a very flexible schedule which is perfect for an adult who works full time but also wants to learn piano. I am able to take lessons in the evening, sometimes even as late as 8:15pm, which allows me to leave the office without rushing to finish my work so I can get to my lesson and be calm and un-harried. This could even help provide an extra half hour of practice time just before the lesson, which is great! My lessons are conveniently located in midtown at her studio. Overall, I am very happy with my choice. I am looking forward to growing my piano skills with Anahid as my teacher.

Meng is fantastic teacher! Piano lesson with her was great and pleasant. I found the initial interaction with her very promising. Everything is so organized. She isn’t just pianist. She is dedicated and hard working teacher. She is from NYU piano performance major and music education as well. Especially, she is really good at working with little kids, very patient and gives very positive energy to students and parents as well. My kids are very excited and look forward to next lesson. If I could give six stars, I would. I would also recommend her to any friend or acquaintance interested in learning the piano in NYC.

Meng was very helpful, taking the time to begin with the necessary foundational teachings about piano before diving into practical exercises. As a beginner, these structured lessons are very beneficial, and I look forward to future sessions.

I have taken piano lessons from Robert for a few weeks now and my ability to read sheet music while I play, as well as understand music theory (big areas of weakness for me) have already improved significantly. He is a great instructor who understands what you need in order to become a better player, and he creates a fun and relaxed atmosphere that makes me look forward to my lesson each week. I would highly recommend Robert as a piano instructor!

Harry Inglis M.A. - Piano/violin/piano tuning
Harry is our piano teacher for our 8 year old son. Our son absolutely adores Harry for his musical talents and charisma. Harry makes his lessons interesting by playing duet and using age-appropriate analogies. His lessons are lively and instructional. To motivate our son to play and practice was our biggest challenge. Harry manages this effortlessly. Now our son is practicing for his Royal School of Music piano level II exam. We highly recommend Harry.

Piano and Violin Lessons from LearnPianoViolin
Piano and Violin Lessons from LearnPianoViolin
Illya teaches my son and daughter piano once a week. He is wonderful with both of them, particularly my son who has autism. He uses the comic book he wrote while teaching and completely engages the kids. I was worried my son wouldn't be able to sit for an hour lesson, but he begs to continue with his lesson and doesn't want to give his sister her turn with Illya. While my son was having a lesson we heard some amazing music. I went to see who was playing and it was Illya and my son! He makes the lessons fun so my kids want to practice what he has taught them. I highly recommend Illya as a piano teacher!

Dillon's Piano & Tutoring
Dillon's Piano & Tutoring
Dillon is an incredible piano teacher! He’s very patient yet encouraging and pushes me to really learn and enjoy learning. Each lesson is much more than just learning to read notes and hit keys. Dillon teaches me to fully appreciate the instrument and the process of making music. Anyone, adult or child, would be lucky to learn piano with him.

My 13 year old daughter, who is a bit of a snob when it comes to piano teachers, has been delighted to receive lessons by Yurika. She's always been courteous, on time and her rate is very reasonable.
