Experienced tutor in Piano in Wheeling, Eric offers private lessons tailored to your needs.

Eric is an absolutely outstanding piano teacher! I’m a percussionist looking to continue music throughout college, and decided to take piano lessons while in high school. This decision was very beneficial, as Eric has taught me a tremendous amount about musicianship, theory, improvisation, transposition, blues, sight-reading, ear training, and so much more. Week after week Eric has challenged me with new material and helped me develop a deeper passion and appreciation for music. From day one, Eric spent a lot of time focusing on music theory. The time and care he devoted to teaching me about this area really enhanced my understanding of the topic and helped prepare me for an advanced placement music theory class. Eric also spent a lot of time teaching me about proper technique including posture, finger position, pedaling, and much more. He helped me understand the importance of this early on, and rather than focusing on just one period/genre of music throughout my lessons, Eric taught me about several and their origins/history. Some private lessons teachers are not very engaging; however, Eric has always been very enthusiastic and really took the time to get to know me as an individual. Not to mention he also has a fantastic sense of humor! I would not be the musician I am today without Eric, and I am so fortunate to have had the opportunity to take lessons with him.

Eric is a phenomenal piano teacher. Each lesson focused on making my son a well-rounded musician by splitting time between teaching technique, theory, ear training, and more. Eric challenges his students while motivating them to do their best. He keeps his students engaged throughout the lesson and gives his students a say in what they are going to learn. He has a great sense of humor making the lessons fun. Eric is very flexible with scheduling and easy to work with. I highly recommend Eric.
