Learn Piano with Daniela Koyen
“I specialize in Classical Piano and Music Theory”
About Me
Hi, my name is Daniela.
I love teaching piano, which I have been doing since 1994. Teaching piano is one of the most rewarding things I have ever done and I plan to continue teaching for a long time.
Seeing my students grow into well rounded and educated people that love and understand music makes me really happy. Music is a powerful force that can affect our emotions and senses and transport us to other times and places. It has the power to heal, to encourage and to energize.
My students range from people who simply want to learn how to play proficiently as a hobby to students who are considering making music their future career. I tailor my lessons according to each student’s goals.
While teaching classical piano, I always try to incorporate the material that students like the most: Holiday songs, Broadway melodies and favorite cartoon songs. Music pieces of the student’s choice are always included in the repertoire. All of this definitely adds to the joy of learning how to play.
I strongly believe that a chance
to go on a big stage and play on a great Steinway concert grand in front of people makes a big difference in children's lives: this teaches them self-control, gives them a great sense of accomplishment and satisfaction. Taking part in festivals and piano competitions helps with building their self-esteem even more.
My studio and teaching process provides a warm and inviting environment for learning that encourages students to make music a joyful part of their daily family life.
I look forward to helping you and your children to reach your goals.

“Ms. Daniela is a wonderful piano teacher. She teaches with great care and help her students understand not only how to play the notes, but also the musicality and meaning of each piece. My children have studied with her for several years, and their piano skills have improved tremendously during that time. I highly recommend her to any family looking for an excellent piano teacher.”

“My daughter has taken lessons with Daniela for two years, and is becoming quite the piano player! Daniela is very sweet with the children while being very serious about piano. She expects her students to actually practice and learn how to play, and, from what I have seen, they all do! I have been particularly impressed with how she coached my daughter, shy and six years old, to get comfortably up on stage for recitals. We were lucky to find her!”

“Daniela has been my online piano teacher for several years. Every time I learn a new song, she helps me work through it step by step, and breaks it down into smaller sections in order to help me master it. She's really helped me progress my piano skills. I very much enjoy working with her and would definitely recommend her!”
