“ Anton offered many approaches to practicing
that were totally new to me and which have
already have begun to pay dividends. He is a
great player but most of all, he's one of those
rare people who can explain his unique insights
and approaches to the non-prodigies like myself.
I would highly recommend him as a teacher!”

~ James Singleton

“ Since starting lessons, I feel much more confident
that I can learn pieces and share them with others.
Anton has a knack for teaching. He is especially good
at noticing what you enjoy about music and drawing
out your interests and strengths. I was a little hesitant
to try online sessions at first, but I don't notice a
difference in quality compared to in-person lessons,
and I prefer the scheduling flexibility. Anton has an
excellent setup, so it's easy to see what he's doing,
 and he can still correct my finger positions and
comment on musical expression easily online.
I'm so happy he's my teacher!”

Personal Piano Training Testimonials

  • Radiologist Dr. Dana Moon poses for a portait.

    Dana Moon | Radiologist

    I decided to start piano lessons in my 3rd year of medical school after hearing a resident play on one of the hospital's public pianos. Since starting lessons, I feel much more confident that I can learn pieces and share them with others. I've loved playing a lullaby for my nephew and Zelda music for my partner. It's also been a great way to de-stress from my job and to clear my mind before I go to sleep.

    Anton has a knack for teaching. He is especially good at noticing what you enjoy about music and drawing out your interests and strengths.

    Piano has been an excellent way to unwind after a busy day. I find that I'm refreshed and happier after I practice. I might not be able to practice every day, but Anton has been wonderful about being flexible and working around my exams and shift work.

    I was a little hesitant to try online sessions at first, but I don't notice a difference in quality compared to in-person lessons, and I prefer the scheduling flexibility. Anton has an excellent setup, so it's easy to see what he's doing, and he can still correct my finger positions and comment on musical expression easily online. I'm so happy he's my teacher!

    Anton is a gifted instructor and pianist. As a former master's student myself of classical piano performance, I've taken many lessons with Anton, specifically regarding virtuoso romantic repertoire. My time with him has always been informative, inspiring, and - most importantly - he helped me directly to solve the problems I wanted to solve. Anton strikes a rare balance: he is knowledgeable about the tradition of piano playing, but open-minded about new ideas. In all, I find Anton to be respectful, practical, creative, and attentive. I would greatly recommend allowing him to take you under his wing.

    Anton as a human being: KIND, CHILL, & FUNNY. He makes good jokes and there’s never an awkward moment. Anton as a piano teacher: PATIENT, ENTHUSIASTIC, & KNOWLEDGEABLE!!! He can deal with all kinds of people and teach all levels of piano. I highly recommend taking piano lessons from Anton Achondoa. ✨
