I offer piano lessons for motivated beginner, intermediate and especially advanced pre-professional students. My approach focuses on all areas of musicianship - from interpretation to advanced technique - in order to produce competent, skilled and analytical musicians.
Bringing 15 years of teaching experience and incorporating modern teaching methods learned from a long list of internationally renown pedagogues, my unique approach to piano instruction is aimed at producing results immediately and to support the long-term development of eager students.
Unlike many music instructors, I have an active performing career which allows me to teach effective and efficient practice techniques that produce faster results in less time.
After formal studies at the Oberlin Conservatory of Music I travelled the world and had the honor of studying with many living legends. I currently hold a Master of Arts in Piano Performance and am a Doctor of Musical Arts candidate at UC San Diego. If you are interested in learning the basics, taking your existing skills to a professional level, or just want to have some fun with music, just say hi@brendannguyen.comIntroductory rates are for young children under 8, and for the first one or two months only. Once they are used to having regular lessons they will continue with Standard 60 minute lessons. Scholarships are available for students from underpriveledged circumstances or who exhibit extraordinary promise as determined by the instructor.
