Above Piano Lessons Studio

I’ve been a student of Mrs. Otto for near four years now, and I can say that I’ve learned and developed far better than what I had anticipated. She’s a great motivator, and by far the best pianist I have ever had the privilege to listen to in person!

If you’re looking to take up piano lessons, she is the person to turn to!

My daughter has been a student of Tanya's for 6 years. We appreciate her patience, her sense of humor, and her firm, but kind, corrections and guidance. My daughter, along with many of Tanya's students, have been testing their way through the Royal Conservatory of Music Program, which gives them measurable feedback and goals to work toward. Tanya is very good at encouraging students to discover music they'd like to play and finding the right arrangements for them. She has two recitals per year to give students the opportunity to perform in front of an audience. She takes very detailed notes at each and every lesson, which is very helpful to look back on during practice sessions. She is also a very accomplished musician herself, and her love of music and enthusiasm is contagious! We would very highly recommend Tanya to anyone.

I've been working with Tanya for the last five years, and I must say that I don't regret any bit of it. She is an excellent teacher for any age and skill level who doesn't give up on her students. She offers great opportunities such as the Royal Conservatory of Music Piano program and recitals to help improve students' confidence and performance skills. I would highly recommend to anyone aspiring piano player regardless of skill level.

Tayna is an excellent piano teacher and extremely talented. Pianist as well. My daughter has been a student of 7 years and has grown from the beginning stage of learning the keys to playing classical pieces as well as writing music. Also, her learning piano has refined her dexterity and critical thinking skills. I highly recommend Above Piano if you are thinking of either learning how to play or just need refreshment as a pianist. Tanya is not only an instructor but a well accomplished pianist herself. She sets the example for all her students. - Rachel W.

Tanya is a very experienced and knowledgeable piano teacher. My daughter has been taking piano lessons from Tanya for eight years(about), my daughter's technique and playing have increased greatly under her tutelage and we are very impressed with the progress she's made. Highly recommend!
