We share the first 4 points of view that enable you to sight read.  

Piano

Our goal and ability are to teach you to play at a six-year level after 3 months of fast easy fun professional piano lessons.
For your information: Are online lessons more effective than in-person lessons?
Although there are some differences, multiple studies on distance learning, including this study from UNC, have shown that students are 36% more focused and perform 22% better when compared to in-person lessons. Mr. Y. is having great success with his students and his students love his lessons, you will too.

Please read slowly and carefully the following unsolicited reviews:
05-07-2020 unsolicited review: Movie Maestro Paul Beebee Mr. Y., When I win my first academy award,  I will have you and your wife at the ceremony and I will have you stand and give you the credit you deserve for my musical abilities. 

Review: Brenner Piano Mr. Y. was an incredible man to learn from. After taking 3 lessons from him I could tell that he has a rich history in music and teaching and has a legitimate love for music. I had to discontinue my lessons due to a move out of state, but I would recommend him to anyone. Jonathan Frazier

William is an incredible teacher! His passion for music, intuition, approachable expertise, lightheartedness, and skill are such gifts. My son has become totally re-engaged with his love for and interest in music and playing piano thanks to William's unique and wonderful teaching style and fabulous personality! Every week my son's confidence grows; he is playing music within weeks that would have taken months to learn before, with so much emotion and beauty. So grateful!

When I came to Bill I had hopes and dreams of being able to read and play any kind of piano music. As a child, I struggled with reading music during 3 years of lessons with a strict classical teacher but held on to the dream. I have waited over 50 years to live the dream I am fulfilling now. Bill had me reading, and playing any piano arrangement I wanted in 3 months. I play classical, gospel, movie themes, and more, and loving it all. His unique teaching method inspires you with an "I can do this" attitude. He analyzes who you are, your own style, and abilities, and raises the bar with every lesson. As I play, he shows me how to enhance my performance with every note. He couples insight with knowledge and his 48+ years of experience to create a true pianist. He tells me I am the composer when I play, and own the music. He tells me "don't just play the music, become the music". After 2 years of lessons, I am living my dream and preparing for concert-level opportunities. Whether young or old (I am 73 years old), Bill can inspire and teach you to play. I often wonder where I would be in the music world if he would have been my childhood teacher. I highly recommend Bill to start your child's music foundation on the right track or for yourself - to live your dream too. Thank you, Bill, for all you do and who you are.

For children, Bill structures his piano lessons so that his students learn their music during the lessons.  He uses games, balloon animals,  puppetry, and magic to make their lessons fun and exciting. 
Private studio lessons. 50 years of experience, published composer, teaches all music genres.  Certified k-12 and certified College Professor.
 His goal is for each lesson to become more and more fun and for his students to learn at lightning-fast speed. Thanks for these moments.

I teach sight reading, the ability to play a new piece perfectly without any practice the first time played.  I also teach "the fantastic improvisation and the creative chording method" the ability to play EZ-play music, lead sheets, chart music and make it sound like you have been studying piano for twenty years after only one year. I have 50 years teaching experience with a Masters's in Education: focus piano.  Major teaching adolescents.  I also teach if requested, the old traditional "20 year method" go-through 20 books learning one song per week, 52 songs per year each one getting harder and harder songs each week.  The "20 year method" is good for accompanists, church organists and music majors and all full time professional musicians.

Mr. William/Bill Young has, and always will go above and beyond to help his students learn any song they’d like ! :) I’ve been going to him (on and off) for almost 20 years ! 😊 I feel so blessed to have found him again after all this time and admire/look up to him SO MUCH for the years he’s invested to master this art or craft - thank you for your time and talent ! :) we value and cherish you sir .. 

My 10 year old daughter loves her piano lessons with William, she enjoys the online sessions more so than the in person lessons she took for 1 year prior to William's. William is very easy going and makes the lessons fun, he is always sharing helpful insights to get her to play notes and chords in a easier way than with her previous instructor. In just 2 months, she is already playing several songs, we can't be any happier with her progress.

William has great piano playing skills and he was very good in imparting his playing skills to his students. He is very positive and encourages us to experiment different improvisations.

Mr. William is a great teacher.  He explains how to play with expression and how to improvise or embellish your songs with ease.

Mr. Young was an incredible man to learn from. After taking 3 lessons from him I could tell that he has a rich history in music and teaching and has a legitimate love for music. I had to discontinue my lessons due to a move out of state but i would recommend him to anyone.

I have always struggled with site reading Mr.  Young made it easy. Me. young is the best teacher I have ever had.
