For Children & Youth
The foundational track is for children and youth. Students learn not only the technical aspects of piano playing but also music theory, high-level musicality, musical interpretation, and performance skills.
Students are encouraged to attend a studio class and participate in multiple performance opportunities during the semester. Students receive plenty of feedback and naturally progress to the next level.
Students can join at any point.
Hobby Lessons
For Adults
This flexible and student-centered piano track is evenly paced and aimed to provide a solid foundation in piano. Instruction is built around the student’s needs and style preference. Students learn to play the piano with enjoyment and overcome anxiety. In addition to private lessons, students can take advantage of various classes, studio and social events and performance opportunities. Each semester, students work on their goal piece which they can perform at the end-of-the-semester recital.
Students can join at any point & stay for as little as one semester.
“You will be amazed with how effective (Bill John’s) teachings are and his ability to help guide you at any level of music. He’s patient and most certainly will have something to teach you. For sure check out his studio.”
David Dytschkowskyj
“My son asked to take piano lessons for about 2 years. We have found the perfect fit…. First, the studio is gorgeous and spacious. Parents are able to sit in and listen to the lessons (it really helps once he is home and practicing). Dr William is calm, cool, and kind. He works hard to make sure he is enjoying the process and at the same time learning a lot. I can’t recommend his studio enough!!”
