What you'll learn

One teacher, the whole journey.

From a first note to confident, musical playing — guided every step by an experienced teacher.

Piano & technique

Posture, tone, and confidence at the keys — building real musicianship, not just note-reading.

Music theory & reading

Understand what's under your hands — notes, chords, rhythm, and how to read and learn music.

Playing by ear & chords

Train your ear and learn chord shapes, so you can sit down and play the songs you love.

Worship & church songs

Learn the worship songs you love and how to lead from the keys — chords, feel, and playing in any key.

Every age & stage

Patient first steps for children, and goal-led lessons for teens and adults returning to the keys.

Kind words

What students & families say.

Hear it from the students themselves.

★★★★★

"I didn't know anything about piano when I started. I can't play with both hands yet, but I really want to so I can make my own beats — and it's really fun learning with Mr. Javian."

Questions

Good to know.

Do I need a piano or keyboard to start?

Yes — regular access to an acoustic piano or a full-size keyboard at home so you can practice between lessons. New to buying one? I'm glad to point you toward solid, affordable options.

Do you teach total beginners and children?

Absolutely. Lessons are for all ages and levels, and true beginners are welcome. For younger students the approach is patient and playful — real songs and small wins early.

Are lessons online or in person?

Both. You can study live online by video call from anywhere, or in person in the Grand Prairie / Dallas area — same focused attention either way.

What styles do you teach?

Foundational technique, music theory and reading, popular songs, worship and church songs, and playing by ear — all tailored to your goals.

How does payment work?

You pay securely when you book. Pick a session and a time, pay at checkout, and your meeting link is created automatically and emailed to you. The 15-minute intro call is free.

What if I need to reschedule?

No problem — just use the link in your confirmation email to reschedule, and give as much notice as you reasonably can so the time can open up for someone else.
