About

Hi!

I’m Lisa Pianista and my mission is to teach you piano. Whatever your skill level and your age may be, I can help you play your favorite songs in no time!

After so many years of teaching piano to adults, I know that everyone is different and has a different approach to learning piano online or offline. This is why I created two different ways for you to learn:

  • Free online piano lessons – for independent students.  ALL of the videos on this website are free to watch!  In one click, create a free account and get started right now!
  • Guided study as part of my online classes – for people who want to learn faster, be guided and motivated throughout their journey.

Not sure which one to choose?

Let’s take a closer look at each of them (click to expand these sections:)

You can go ahead and create your free account and start learning piano for FREE if:

  • You are a self-starter
  • You enjoy learning on your own
  • You can motivate yourself easily
  • You’re an independent learner rather than a group learner
  • You’re unsure about how much time you can dedicate to this
  • You don’t mind taking a bit more to learn

These free video piano lessons are not only for beginners! If you have some basic or even more advanced piano playing background and just need to get back in the game, simply take a look below at the curriculum and jump to any of the lessons that fit your level.

My interactive classes are ideal for you if:

  • You thrive when learning in groups
  • You need extra motivation and guidance
  • You want a support system and learning buddies that guide each other
  • You want to interact with your piano teacher in real time and participate in lessons that are tailor-made to your specific needs
  • You want enrichment, beyond the free videos, that is customized to your learning level.
  • You want to learn piano FAST
  • You want to have access to the replays of the customized lessons (included in the package)
  • You want to learn more piano music at the correct level of difficulty

Yes, that sounds like me! Where do I sign up?

Where Do I Fit in Based on My Piano Skills?

Not sure where to start? Check out the overview of each unit to find the perfect one for you. Pro tip: you won’t be doing yourself any favors by skipping ahead or, the opposite, re-doing lessons you already know. Ideally, browse through the videos to see which one suits you best.
