Piano Lessons in Clifton

My name is Jaris Hernandez, and I have been teaching piano since 2019. I am a dedicated and passionate music educator committed to helping students of all ages and backgrounds discover and develop their musical potential in a supportive and encouraging environment.

I began my musical training at Instituto Canzion DC and later minored in Piano Performance at George Mason University. In addition to teaching, I serve as an active worship leader at my church, an experience that has shaped my musicality through expression, collaboration, and a deep understanding of musical communication.

My teaching approach is friendly, patient, and highly personalized. I adapt each lesson to the student’s individual goals, learning style, and pace to ensure steady and enjoyable progress. I specialize in beginner classical piano, traditional music, sight reading, technique development, and foundational music theory. I also teach worship music and ear training, helping students build strong listening skills and the ability to play with confidence by ear.

Whether you are taking your very first steps at the piano or looking to strengthen and expand your skills, I am committed to creating a positive and structured learning experience where students feel motivated, supported, and inspired to grow as musicians.
