I first wanted to play the piano as a child. I also wanted to learn ballet. But we couldn’t afford both so I said I would learn the piano sometime later in life. Well, I’m 66 years old now and I’m having a ball! Jordan does such a good job explaining things - I feel like I can attempt anything he talks about. Anyone should try this and it is never too late to learn!
I wanted to learn the piano without hiring a tutor, so I was looking for something where I could learn at my own pace -- with videos, consumables, and tracked progress.
I was nervous about paying for online lessons, but now that I’m a member I’m comfortable with my decision -- I’m learning quickly, the teachers are very clear in the explanations and demonstrate at a good pace. It’s a great website!
Despite not having too much talent for the piano, I learned a lot during the first year on Pianote. And what’s the most important to me is that I still love every minute of playing.
It is the perfect way to learn if you need to fit piano lessons into your busy schedule. I get instant responses to my questions, both online and offline. And piano became a part of my life. Yes, there’s a lot more I should learn, but I’m so happy to be making progress!
Life is busy and it’s tough to predict when you will have time to practice and learn, but learning the piano is easier than I thought it would be. The lessons are little units. It’s like how you eat an elephant: in biteable chunks!
I love that I can learn on my own schedule whenever I have an opportunity. I love the slickness of the experience and connecting with other learners. It feels modern and progressive and it can work for anyone.
I live in the country away from any major cities, so I was looking for a piano tutor. Your foundation course is just what I wanted with step-by-step lessons that fits every level of piano playing and you are so supportive when contacted.
This is the equivalent to a music school where you can learn music no matter where you are in the world. And the best thing is that you are not limited to just practising - there is so much more you will learn and be able to apply in your piano journey!
Jordan Leibel, Nate Bosch and other Pianote instructors have varied and innovative approaches to teaching music - the songs and play along tracks are truly musical and super FUN to play. I honestly love everything about Pianote! It’s inspiring! Encouraging! I’m addicted to Pianote!
It’s the best place to learn piano. You get a new song breakdown every week and a step by step program with lots of piano teachers - and you get a fast reply when asking questions. I’m happy I joined!
I’m a little older than probably most piano students, but I’ve had this dream of playing the piano for a while. With Pianote, I can learn at my own pace and there’s tons of info at my disposal. I have the choice of communicating for instructions, I have great teachers instructing me, and I am becoming a better musician.
I just wish Pianote would have been available to me sooner. And considering the going price on piano lessons these days, Pianote is a good deal!
I am an academic musician, with a music and education degree from the University of Haifax and a teaching diploma. I am a drum teacher myself and learned with many teachers, mostly drums and guitar but some piano too. I know what good music education is when I see it - and I can’t stop saying my praises on Pianote.
I found a well organized system, easy to use interface, high level of teaching and instructors, and fun experience which motivates me. True online music education professionals, and that is why I recommend them highly.
Learning to play piano is a good investment, and Pianote is definitely cheaper than private tutoring. The community is really encouraging and supportive and the lessons are easy to understand and follow.
I love the combination of video tutorials with provided sheet music and how easy it is to progress through the lessons - and the continuous new lessons makes learning dynamic and fresh. If you’re someone who likes to work through things at your own pace and enjoy learning online, then go for it!
The foundation lessons are the closest thing to real private lessons - technique, theory, and application. You always know what you can work on, one thing at a time, and get good at it before moving onto the next lesson.
All the teachers have a rich teaching experience and their lessons cover the basics through to advanced topics. And you’ll get all the lessons to work through at your own pace. Learning to play piano is hard. Piano lessons by Pianote made it easy.
I loved the lessons but felt like they were becoming too advanced, so I decided to leave for a while to practice what I had learned without the expense of paying. It was the most disappointing feeling when I realized I could no longer access my lessons!
What a joy when I was able to rejoin again. Pianote is fantastic and gave me absolutely everything I ever needed to learn to play piano. I absolutely recommend it to others.
I played the piano when I was younger. However as I got older, priorities took place over continuing to play. When I joined Pianote, it was some 20+ years since I last touched a keyboard. I was looking at getting my muscle memory back again… and the exercises that you offer are doing just that!
I found the site easy to navigate and I like the way it keeps track of my progress as I move through the lessons. But most importantly, it’s saving me a ton of cash as I don’t have to find a private tutor.
You give me the opportunity to learn at my own pace. Keep doing what you’re doing. You guys are awesome!
I’ve used other piano lesson websites, but the interfaces are too complicated and there was always issues with different apps. I wasted so much time troubleshooting rather than practising.
Pianote gives me nice step by step lessons in progression and a sense of satisfaction. Jordan and Lisa are so nice to watch and there are always PDFs that go with each lesson.
I’d been self taught but hit a wall and wasn’t progressing anymore, so I decided to try Pianote. It’s like sitting down with a friend who’s teaching me how to play while explaining the logic behind what they’re doing. It’s most helpful to watch the fingering for each exercise to make sure I’m moving in the most efficient way.
The lessons are well thought out and I can do this all on my own schedule. Jordan is especially as talented of a teacher as he is a musician.
