We recommend my first & basic piano adventures for new students grades 1-5 and recommend students grade 4 and up start with piano adventures accelerated & pre-bigtime. Adult beginners can pick their own curriculum, use adult piano adventures, or learn individual songs.
We encourage students to bring song requests from the music that inspires them! Many children want to learn songs from their favorite
movie, video game, or pop artist - we are seriously down with that.

Our Students Love Us!
BUT YOU DON'T HAVE TO TAKE OUR WORD FOR IT
"Nate has been teaching my daughter piano since 2017. My daughter absolutely loves Nate. He has built up her confidence and her love of music. Her self-discipline and focus have increased significantly since starting lessons with Nate. She used to struggle in school but is now a straight-A student. I credit that completely to her music lessons."
Leslie Gillette
"I've been taking weekly lessons with Nate since 2017 and he's always been patient and great at explaining things in a way I can understand. I'm glad to have an instructor that is both talented and thoughtful."
Jackie Gillette
"We highly recommend Mr. Nathan for both in person and virtual piano lessons. All my 3 kids ages from 10 to 15 learn from him. My eldest started to learn piano since she was 6 years old. We started with him in person. When he said he was moving from our area my kids didn't want to switch teachers. He is such a good and patient teacher; keeps the kids class interactive and enjoyable. Even my shy son loves his class. We highly recommend him."

For beginners, it usually takes several months to get comfortable with the basics, such as reading sheet music, playing simple melodies, and developing hand-eye coordination. With consistent practice, you can expect to play more complex pieces within a year or two.
If you want to achieve a higher level of proficiency, such as performing in front of audiences or pursuing a career in music, it can take several years of regular practice and lessons with a qualified instructor. The key is to practice consistently and be patient with yourself as you progress.
