About Celine
I hold a MA in Piano Performance from Azusa Pacific University. I have been teaching piano for all ages and all levels since 2002. I had formal training in Suzuki pedagogy method from the Suzuki certified trainer. Over the last ten years, I have been integrating Suzuki method with various modern piano pedagogies to teach beginners and received positive feedback from students and parents. I believe that students under my integrated method usually progress much faster than the ones under traditional Suzuki method.
In addition to piano teaching, I also teach all levels of accordion and violin (Suzuki Method).

About Mike B.
Close
Teaching for 20 years. I tailor each lesson to the needs/goals of every student.
For beginners, I can write easy versions of your favorite songs for you, while giving you a well balanced music education.
For singers, I can show you how to easily accompany yourself and sound like a pro without reading a note.
For children, I make lessons fun and varied with learning and musical games to keep them excited and engaged.
For classical players wanting to try other styles, I can show you how to improvise and jam in several styles (I went through the transition and I know how it is!)
For everyone, I can teach you the most efficient ways to learn any musical skill based on experience and leading scientific books on learning, while keeping lessons fun!
About Mike
I've studied piano and other instruments for 30 years, have been teaching music for 20, and have been a full time professional musician and music teacher for 11 years.
As a musician who was raised on classical piano but has also spent his life playing in bands, jamming, and composing in several genres, I believe that a well-rounded musical education is not only practical, but that it brings out the most enjoyment in music.
I also believe in teaching students whatever they love whether it's classical, rock, pop, jazz, world music, or a mix of everything! The more they love it, the more they will practice, and in turn the more they will love how they have improved - a circle of awesomeness!

About Connor C.
Close
Accordion is one of my truest loves. I've been a musician as long as I can remember. I've been playing traditional Irish accordion for 6 years and have had 5 very talented teachers myself. I can apply my performance and teaching techniques to piano or button accordion. I've also played concert piano accordion for 6 years, and can teach the fundamentals of accordion playing, advanced technique and style for accordion, basic to advanced music theory, and general performance and practice techniques. I have several accordions that can be rented as well.
About Connor
I'm a film composer by trade, but I love teaching as well. I love sharing my passion for music with others. I have a BM from Appalachian State University in piano performance and music theory/composition. I also have an MFA in music composition for the screen from Columbia College Chicago. I studied abroad in Ireland for a summer and learned traditional Irish music. I've been playing piano and composing since I was a young child, and picked up folk instruments along the way. Folk music has been a constant source of joy in my life, and I am continually learning more about it. Music is what gets me out of bed in the morning!

一个好的钢琴老师应该是一个颇具个人魅力的人、良好的性格、特有的艺术气质，能够针对不同学生的不同情况通过不同方式吸引、感染、带动学生。 好的钢琴老师，是你家儿子或女儿每星期要上课钢琴的那一天盼着要见的那个人。好的钢琴老师，是你家孩子弹了新曲子的时候，迫不及待的想分享的那个人。 一个好的老师还应该不仅仅只教授技巧，更教授为人之道， 好的钢琴老师，是让你孩子的文化境界更加提升的那个人。
Lena就是这样的老师也!❤

I really enjoyed my lesson with Lena today. She is a really patient, kind, and caring piano teacher. Her teaching style was very clear and easy to understand even though I do not have any past experience in music or playing instruments. She helped me learn the basic keys. I look forward to taking more lessons with her. I have already signed up for 4 additional lessons.
Thanks,
Matthew

I tailor the lessons to the students' individual goals and preferences, balancing music that you like, technique, exploring different genres, improvising, rhythmical concepts and theory.
I enjoy getting my students excited about the accordion!
About Jan
I am professional accordion and keyboard player from Cologne, Germany, now based in Austin, Texas.
I began playing the accordion at the age of seven and was immediately fascinated by the variety of the instrument. I found my musical orientation playing Blues, Jazz, Country and World Music. I played across Europe and appeared on national television.
After moving to Austin, I obtained a degree in Jazz Performance and Composition. Since then I have been working as a professional accordionist, keyboard player, teacher and composer.
I work with several bands including Ulrich Ellison & Tribe with whom I won the 2015 Austin Music Awards for Best Blues Band. Other bands, I work with are: Nakia and The Blues Grifters, Grupo Massa, Seu Jacinto, The Gritones, and Macaxeira Funk. In 2016 I received the Austin Music Awards in the category Bes

"My name is Al Philipp, used to serve in ministry with Grey and what an awesome gift God has given him in music. Grey would play all kinds of music and my
favorites were the old hymns and the contemporary Christian music, but when he broke out the polka music it would get your heart pumpin and your feet jumpin. Yes Grey is very good with the accordion with a great personality to go along with his teaching ability. I highly recommend Grey if you are wanting to learn this instrument."
