Studying piano with Derek has been a truly fantastic experience. Each lesson reflects his structured teaching style and genuine enthusiasm making the learning process both clear and inspiring.

On a regular routine, my daughter learns to play the piano from Derek in East Fresno. By alternating contemporary pop songs with classical compositions, he maintains a laid-back yet active atmosphere. Playing Tchaikovsky and Taylor Swift simultaneously is something he enjoys doing since it suits his learning style.

I genuinely look forward to Derek ’s piano lesson every week! As an adult beginner, I was initially a bit intimidated, but his clear instructions on the fundamentals of the upright piano, rhythm, and scales really helped me relax. His supportive teaching style and customized lessons make learning enjoyable and productive. I wholeheartedly recommend him to other adult beginners!

Derek piano lessons are great because he uses fun pictures and games that helped my 5-year-old daughter learn rhythm and how to hold his hands quickly, and now he enjoys playing little songs for our family. Thanks,
