Peter piano exam preparation in Chevy Chase Canyon was outstanding; his thorough plans, listening practice, and encouragement helped me achieve top marks on the exam, and even though the lessons were demanding, they were incredibly worthwhile.

The teaching approach of Peter in the Marina District is truly special. Instead of just focusing on getting the notes right he seems to cultivate a deeper musicality in his students. Learning on a baby grand piano must be inspiring and its fantastic to have lessons with him I would highly recommend everyone who is looking for piano lessons to him.
