FAQs

 

Do I need a piano to take lessons?

Yes. Having an acoustic piano is best. Please ensure that it is tuned regularly (every 6-12 months). However, having an acoustic piano is not always realistic. If you have an electric piano/keyboard, make sure it has 88 keys and is fully weighted. If you have any questions, please reach out to me.

Can I, a grown-up, take lessons?

Yes! Absolutely. Please consider the time commitment that is required with regular practice and how it will fit into your schedule.

Where are lessons?

Lessons are held at Akaylah’s apartment in Newhall.

Can my preschooler take lessons?

For anyone under the age of five, I do require a trial period of one month. This allows me to assess how well your child can focus on a task, listen to directions, as well as their general knowledge (do they know the alphabet, can they count, etc).

Do I have to practice outside of lessons?

Yes. You have to exercise regularly to stay in shape. Likewise, you have to practice to make progress in piano lessons.
