Short, structured, playful lessons that build real reading and hand skills. No prior music needed. Parents are welcome to sit in.

Teens

Faster progress and harder repertoire, audition and school-program preparation, or simply learning the songs they love, well.

Adults & seniors

It's never too late

Start from zero or return after decades away. Many of Josefa's piano students are adults who finally made time for it.

FAQ

Common questions about piano lessons

At what age can a child start piano?

Around age 5 is ideal, sometimes 4 if the child can focus for 20 minutes and knows their letters. Adults can start at any age.

Do we need a real piano at home?

No. A keyboard with at least 61 full-size keys is enough to start. Weighted keys are a nice upgrade later, not a requirement. Ask Josefa before buying anything.

How long until I can play a song?

Simple pieces within the first few weeks. Reading fluently and playing full songs takes a few months of steady practice.

How much should we practice?

About 15 to 20 minutes a day for children and 20 to 30 for adults. Consistency matters far more than long sessions.

Do you teach classical or popular music?

Both, plus Latin repertoire. Technique is the same; the songs are chosen with the student.

Can Josefa prepare my child for an audition or exam?

Yes: school and program auditions, recitals, competitions and recordings. As a composer and arranger she can also prepare a custom arrangement at the right level.

Also teaching: voice lessons · guitar lessons
