Hope George

I have been playing the piano since I was 12 years os age. This was right after I learned to play the drums and played for my local church for almost 4 years.. One year later I joined a university band and this helped me grow and improve quickly. I set out to start teaching the piano in my local church when there was a need to groom new musicians in the church. I initially did the traijing for free and trained about 4 keyboadirst who joined the church band. Bu this time, the demand for learning to play the laino had increased and I even had some interested students coming from our sister branch to learn.. My focus and advice to all my students is not to be just as good as I am, but to strive to be better, way better than I am. Discover and develop your own unique style and pattern.

Guido Donato

Hi! My name is Guido, I’m a professional musician, piano teacher, and vocal coach with over 10 years of experience teaching students of all ages and levels. I studied piano with a focus on classical and popular music, and I also hold a degree in Composition and Music Production. I’ve performed and recorded as a pianist, vocalist, and multi-instrumentalist, and I bring all of that professional experience into my lessons. Alongside teaching piano, I also work as a vocal coach, which allows me to help students who want to sing and play at the same time. 🎼 What My Lessons Are Like My piano lessons are always tailored to each student’s goals — whether that’s learning your first songs, improving your technique, exploring music theory, or diving into jazz, pop, or classical repertoire. I combine traditional methods with modern tools (such as Sibelius and Guitar Pro for sheet music and exercises), and I make sure every lesson is both structured and enjoyable. For beginners, I focus on building a solid foundation step by step. For more advanced students, we explore improvisation, harmony, and interpretation in depth.

Juan Rogers

Hi! I'm Juan Rogers, a classically trained pianist with over 15 years of experience, and a Masters degree in Education. Originally from the United States, I now work as a performing & recording artist in Tokyo, Japan. However, my real passion is in teaching others what I love to do most; how to play the piano. I teach people of all ages, backgrounds and levels of ability, in a style that suits their needs and desires as developing artists. My lessons consist of flexible yet robust sessions where music theory is leveraged with the excitement of learning in order to promote technical and expressive growth in one's playing. By focusing on the fundamentals such as chord knowledge, scale familiarity and ear training, students can excel at whatever style of playing they choose, whether that be classical, blues, or pop. With a background in classical music, technique and fundamentals are a must. Bach, Mozart, and Beethoven serve as a foundation in my playing. However, since moving to Tokyo, I have also fallen in love with the music of videos, of anime, and all sorts of films. And I find myself learning, performing, and teaching this music every day. I'd love to share the joy of all this music and help you reach your potential as well. Let's work together!
