Together, you will develop a plan to achieve your goals! We love beginners, so even if you don't know where to begin, we can help!

We also offer voice lessons and drum lessons for students interested in exploring other musical paths.
ARE YOUR PIANO INSTRUCTORS QUALIFIED?
Our piano instructors are highly qualified, all have teaching experience, and most importantly, they have a passion for teaching. Being a musician doesn't automatically make you a teacher--that's why we search for those who are best qualified for mentoring our music students!
We search the entire area for the top teachers, who embody the high values at Elkhart School of Music. Most importantly, our instructors strive to relate their teaching to each individual student's learning style. Many of our instructors have years of professional performance and teaching experience. In addition to their teaching abilities, our teachers have warm personalities, are extremely friendly, and strive to get to know each student and their parent or caregiver on a personal level.

How long does it take to learn piano?
There is no set answer of how long it takes to learn to play. With regular practice a basic level of playing can be accomplished in a few months. Most of our students take lessons on a long term basis because they want to be constantly improving and they find the lessons enjoyable.
I Don't have any Musical Background or Ability. Can I still help my child practice?
Yes. Even if you don't have a musical background you can ask the teacher for advice on how to help your child practice. By simply monitoring that they are doing exercises a certain number of times per day the student will progress. Parents may sit in on their child's music lesson whenever they wish. This is especially encouraged when the student is under the age of 10.
