Piano Lessons in Pasadena for All Levels

I use various methods for each student's unique learning style. Influenced by Russian and European teachers, some of the piano methods I use for beginners are from Irina Gorin's "Tales of a Musical Journey", Faber's "Piano Adventures", Shilla Hekmat's Piano Method, Irina Mints' "Hello, Piano!" and Dr. Julie Knerr's "Piano Safari."

Intermediate students move on to the standard music repertoire of Bach, Chopin, Mozart, and Beethoven. Advanced music students are prepared for high school and college entrance exams.
