Learn piano from a lifelong musician and piano teacher

I've taught many Piano students at a private music academy, ranging from small children to adults. For a beginner, we will focus on fundamentals, as good technique is an investment in future success. I use a well-respected Piano method book for all my students, and many of them have had great success under my instruction.

My son had been learning music from Adam for last 3 years starting at the age of 7. Any words can't do justice to describe how this experience has shaped my son's sense of music. My son plays multiple music instruments now and I believe few things with guitar and piano he is doing very well. Adam is not only a teacher but also an inspiration for my son and daughter. It has lead rest of my family including myself and my wife also to pursue at least one music instrument. Thanks a lot Adam for bringing music to our family!

Adam is an amazing teacher!! my son has learning disabilities which include ADHD and Adam is suoer patient with him and exolains things well in a way my son can grasp and retain. Our lives are chaotic sometimes and busy so it has been a tremendous help to us that Adam gets it. I highly recommend Adam as an instructor who will teach and guide and be compassionate.
