Glad to have piano teacher Annie in 88 Keys Music Academy for my kid. She is so patient and super knowledgeable. You can see her passion in piano and the way she teaches. We have been taking lessons with her for 2 years. She always said, we are human, not robots. Every song, we need to add our feelings to make it different. That’s true. After her teaching, you can see how your kid has improved in the details and skills. Once your kid is ready, she would recommend some competition to gain more confidence and experience. Another thing is Annie would like to take notes in the class which helps kids a lot after class. We check the notebook before practice and pay attention to the line we got wrong before or need to improve.

88 Keys and especially Jose Garcia (drums) are amazing! My son has been taking drum lessons for over a year now and loves it! Jose gives him freedom to choose songs he wants to learn and if he can’t think of anything Jose will suggest popular songs with new techniques for him to learn. He makes it fun yet still teaches. I, myself, have experience playing in a band and even I have learned a great deal from Jose while sitting in on classes.
88 Keys is well worth the cost for weekly lessons. They offer many different options of instruments to learn. They are flexible if you can not make a lesson to schedule for an alternative day or time. Everyone is friendly and professional. Every child I have seen there has always seemed very happy to be there, and mine is no exception.
Whether your child wants to rock and roll or play the classics, 88 Keys is the place to learn it.

88 Keys is a wonderful music studio with great teachers and staff. I was searching for online piano lessons for my two children whose previous piano teacher moved out of state during the latter part of covid and 88 keys was so accommodating. They are very professional and responsive. My children are being taught by Ms Grace who is a very talented musician herself. She’s patient, encouraging and teaches excellent technique. I’m very impressed with this studio and we love Ms Grace!

We enrolled our kids in 88 Keys Music Academy. One child had piano lessons with Ms. Meleeah. She did a great job with him. He learned a good amount and she helped motivate him by selecting songs that he enjoyed playing. He made good progress and participated in a recital. Another child had Matt Baker who gave him guitar lessons. Matt was very patient with our child and provided good guidance and feedback. Matt was great with coordinating schedules and choosing a pace that engaged our child. We would strongly recommend the teachers at 88 Keys Music Academy
