Looking for an online piano teacher for adults? I teach one-on-one lessons over Zoom, with the camera placed so I can see your hands and your wrist, and complete beginners are welcome. I am a concert pianist and university professor.
For those who want personal guidance: one-on-one online lessons tailored to your level and goals — beginners to advanced — from anywhere in the world. Taught by a Doctor of Musical Arts, university professor and concert pianist.
I see exactly what your hands, ears and reading need — and fix it before it becomes a habit.
Your goals, your repertoire, your pace — from first notes to advanced repertoire and exams.
The same standard I hold my college students to — warmly, and in plain language.
Start with a single lesson if you would rather see how we work together first. Most students then continue monthly, or take a ten-lesson package.
Start here
$100
The full hour. We look at your hands, your reading and where you actually are, and you decide from there.
$60
A shorter first lesson, if that suits your schedule better.
Weekly, month by month
$360
One hour a week for a month. The steadiest way to make real progress.
Ten lessons — the best value per lesson
$850
$85 a lesson. For adults and intermediate to advanced students.
The longer the package, the less each lesson costs: $100 → $90 → $85 for the hour, and $60 → $50 → $45 for the half hour.
Lessons are taught online by Zoom, worldwide, in English or Russian. Reschedule free with 24 hours notice. Ten-lesson packages are valid for six months, monthly packages for two. Full refund before your first lesson — see the terms.
Learn from anywhere, with flexible scheduling and the same expert teaching. All you need is a keyboard or piano, a device with a camera, and Zoom.
All lessons are online via Zoom — I teach students around the world, in English or Russian.
Intermediate or advanced? Watch my masterclass-style lessons, then go deeper 1-on-1.

My tested picks for proper technique from day one.
See recommended keyboards →Yes. Most of the adults I teach have never played, or played as a child and stopped. The first lesson starts where you actually are.
Over Zoom, with the camera placed so I can see your hands and your wrist. That view is the whole difference - most of what goes wrong for an adult is visible before it is audible.
Once a week suits most adults who practice twenty minutes a day. Every other week works too if the practice is steady; lessons further apart than that tend to turn into repair work.
A keyboard or piano, a phone or laptop with a camera you can angle toward your hands, and somewhere to put it. Nothing else.
A single 60-minute lesson is $100 and a single 30-minute lesson is $60. Four 60-minute lessons are $360 and four 30-minute lessons are $200. Ten 60-minute lessons are $850 ($85 a lesson) and ten 30-minute lessons are $450 ($45 a lesson). The longer the package, the less each lesson costs: $100 → $90 → $85 for the hour, and $60 → $50 → $45 for the half hour.
