Group and Private Piano Classes Learning to play the piano musically requires much more than just learning to play the right notes. It requires careful and proper development of hands, ears, mind and heart. At Hoffman Academy, our teachers challenge and encourage each student to achieve excellence in their playing, while also seeking to instill a life-long love and appreciation for music.

If you are looking for an environment that teaches music and encourages artistry, I highly recommend the Hoffman Academy. My daughter has been taking piano lessons at the academy since 2012 and we have been so impressed with their talented instructors and friendly staff. We couldn't be happier with her musical journey.

Beautiful music experience for children of any age! Hoffman Academy has provided both of my children with exceptional teachers and instruction for years of piano lessons. Amazing staff and weekly lessons that are completely focused around the child's musical interest and goals to advance at any level. I would highly recommend Hoffman Academy to anyone!

Hoffman Academy is a wonderful place for students and their families. I've loved all my teachers over the years. Incredibly talented professionals make the learning process fun and stimulating. Students demonstrate phenomenal growth and development. I feel very fortunate to be be a part of this amazing musical community. Thank you, Mr. Hoffman! Special thanks to my current teacher - Mr. Matt!

My daughter started out watching the free online videos that Mr. Hoffman posted on youtube, and we realized the magic in his method when she persisted playing those on her keyboard for months. We started sending our daughter to Hoffman Academy for semi-private partner lessons a few years ago and we couldn't be more thrilled. She goes to the class excited, enjoys practicing and has blossomed into a passionate young learner. What more could a parent ask for? She is very fond of her teacher Ms. Elizabeth Kohl. I highly recommend Hoffman Academy.

We found the best guitar teacher online for guitar in Justinguitar and now have the best teacher online for piano. Our 10 year old son loves Mr. Hoffman, is blasting through lessons and is hard to get away from the keyboard! Hoffman Academy is very well recommended (from Australia)

Two of my children and my husband have been taking piano lessons at the Hoffman Academy for a year. We've been extremely impressed by the professionalism of the staff and the progress that has been made in such a short amount of time. My daughter didn't want anything to do with having a man teacher but I made her interview with Joseph anyway. He was our first interview and she got in the van and said "Mom he's the teacher" We interviewed 4 other women teachers and each time she said "NO".

He's passionate about instilling the love of music to everyone he meets. And he always makes us feel comfortable. My husband has been taking lessons with Kim for a term and he said she's great also! I don't know a whole lot about the other teachers but I know that if Joseph hires someone they must be good. I trust his judgement. If you want your child to love music this is the place!
