There’s a rare balance of joy and purpose in the way music is taught here in Yan west End. It’s been especially great for kids who thrive on both structure and fun something that’s hard to find and makes all the difference.

As an adult beginner, I didn’t expect to progress this fast. Yan in Haymount teaches at the right pace and makes it stick.

While in Imperial, we started taking piano lessons with Yan . her focus on making music enjoyable with pop songs and structured exercises turned practice into something my teenage daughter loves.

Yan is an amazing upright piano tutor and her teaching style is really good and in a short time she has taught me pop chords to classical etudes

After starting piano with Yan in Westpark, my 8-year-old really took to it. Yan ’s interactive digital piano made learning timing and technique more engaging. My daughter now practices independently, which shows just how effective the lessons have been.

I was very nervous before starting learning Piano because I am an adult beginner but Yan in Pecos Ranch encouraged me the whole time. she's helped me learn Chopin pieces which was my dream and I've also started playing other pieces I love.
