Studio Offerings
Lessons & Pricing
At Eve Chen Piano Studio, we offer personalized weekly piano lessons for students of all ages and levels — from young beginners to advanced players and adults. Each lesson is thoughtfully tailored to support the student's growth, confidence, and love for music.
Lessons encompass technique, music theory, ear training, and sight-reading, alongside repertoire carefully chosen to match each student's level and interests. Our focus extends beyond building strong skills — we are equally committed to helping students find their own musical voice and develop a genuine joy for the music they play.
Our goal is to cultivate a warm, encouraging environment where every student feels inspired, supported, and truly excited to learn.

A Typical Lesson
What to Expect
Warm-Up & Technique (10 min)
Scales, arpeggios, and Hanon exercises tailored to current challenges. We discuss what felt good and what didn't during practice.
Repertoire Review (20–30 min)
Current pieces are worked on in detail — phrasing, dynamics, fingering, interpretation. Trouble spots are isolated and addressed.
Theory & Ear Training (5–10 min)
Relevant theory is taught in context of the music. Sight-reading, interval recognition, or rhythm exercises as appropriate.
New Material (5–10 min)
Introduction of a new piece or section. We establish first steps so practice during the week has clear direction.
Assignment Review (5 min)
Specific, written practice goals for the week — what to practice, how, and for how long. Sent to parents via the portal immediately after.
