Cannot recommend Lucy's Piano School highly enough for anyone wanting to learn piano! Learning piano as an uncoordinated adult for more than 3 years has been more fun and motivating than I expected, with my wonderful and warm teacher, Lucy. Lucy is very professional and she is always supportive and knows exactly what her students need. She is an instructor who is exceptional in making learning both enriching and enjoyable.
Lucy’s Piano School is not just an ordinary piano school, which teaches the mere techniques of how to play piano. One standout feature of Lucy’s lessons is how she takes the time to teach the story behind each musical note before diving into the piece itself. Her approach not only provides a solid understanding of the music but also inspires a deeper connection with each piece. It is surely motivating to know the history and meaning behind the music you are about to play – it beautifully transforms the practice into something more meaningful than just hitting the right notes!
Lucy also places a strong emphasis on proper techniques. She guides students through finger positioning, the correct posture, and hand movement, ensuring that the body remains relaxed and free from tension. Her guidance prevents bad habits and avoids unnecessary strain, while still allowing the beauty of the music to come through naturally. I have learned so much about controlling my wrist and managing the weight of my hands to achieve such a clear and beautiful voicing.
What is truly special about Lucy’s Piano School is how Lucy teaches the art of bringing music to life. It is not just about playing the right notes with right technique; it is about adding my feeling and character to the performance. Lucy knows how to create a colorful, expressive tone, bringing out the poetry and spirit of each piece of music. Under her guidance, I have felt empowered to bring my own interpretation to music by playing it as if I am channeling the great composers like Chopin, Rachmaninoff, or even Vladimir Horowitz!
If you are looking for a piano school that will not only help you develop technical skill but also inspire you to bring the heart and soul of music to life, Lucy’s Piano School is the only place to be!

I’ve been taking weekly piano lessons with Lucy for the past 5 years as an adult beginner, also my son and daughter have been under her guidance for over 4 years now. It has been a fantastic experience. Her teaching style is well-paced and informative, perfectly tailored to my needs and skill level. The lessons are always enjoyable, making the learning process both engaging and rewarding.
I appreciate her patience and the way she breaks down complex concepts into manageable steps. I used to have a lot of technical issues before started taking lessons with Lucy. Lucy truly helped me on how to relax and perform piano without discomfort, pain and unnecessary tension. My kids also love studying music with Lucy. Lucy has been always encouraging my kids and helps discover their potential, improve skills and musicality tremendously!
Lucy is a professional and knowledgeable pianist and educator who has a wonderful sense for the details and helps us make steady progress not just playing pieces, but playing with expression from our heart. I couldn’t thank enough for her dedication and expertise towards music education.
I highly recommend her to anyone looking to learn piano, regardless of age or experience level

My kids have been learning music with Lucy for over 10 years. They have been enjoying lessons and making steady progress all along and now I can say with confidence and proud they really enjoy performing, no fear but with excitement and enjoyment. Lucy’s teaching was not just about helping students to get a good mark from Music exam or competition but also help them express their feelings through performing music: sound picture, visualization methods, etc My kids have been going through a lot of ups and downs like every other kids especially when they were going through puberty, despite of heavy load of school work, they have been always excited to go to lesson, because it was not just about learning music but also about expressing themselves through performing music. I have realized that Lucy’s music education was beyond just teaching but also helping kids to express fully and so they feel healed by performing music instead of getting stressed or feel pressured. It utterly helped my kids to maintain good mental health all along. Her approach on teaching proper techniques is phenomenal, she has been placing a strong emphasis on how significant it is to relax while performing and perform with proper techniques. Your dedication is truly appreciated Highly recommend anyone who is in need of learning music regardless of age or level!
