    About Anna P.

    4.5
    (25)
    I hold a Master's degree in Piano Pedagogy and Music Theory and History. I established my own teaching method that is based on European classical teaching tradition. I am familiar with most of the American piano teaching methods and use their achievements in my teaching widely. Personally, I am kind but demanding. My students thrive fast and steady.

    Anna is a wonderful teacher. My kids are doing so much better under her instruction. I can see and hear their progress in the time they've been taking lessons with her. She has high expectations which is exactly what my kids need. She provides feedback after lessons and great communication. Highly recommend!

    Anna is adept at teaching adults. My wife and I are in our late twenties with no music background at all, and she has done a great job at both introducing the theory behind the music and keeping the lessons simple enough to progress and enjoy. It is an even greater testament to her skill that she is able to teach in this way in a completely online format. Anna knows how to get the most out of her students and is extremely passionate about helping them improve, even contacting them outside of lesson time to check on their progress. We would recommend Anna to anyone!
