“If you are looking for a Jazz piano teacher – look no further! Dan Lawrence is not only an extremely talented pianist and performer, but an extraordinary teacher – and that is a rare combination. He teaches a system that is designed to take your playing from OK to WOW! And he does it in very understandable steps. He tailors his pace to your level, really listens to what you want to accomplish, and then provides the tools to get you there.”

“Dan is a wonderful piano teacher. He works with the student to determine what they already know and what they are interested in learning. He is very patient and encouraging. My favorite quote from him is “It’s not a race.” That helped lessen my frustration when I wasn’t progressing as quickly as I hoped. He has great tips for memorizing and practicing.”

“Dan is very encouraging, patient and kind. Dan’s teaching style is not one fits all. Rather he gets to know his students (what they like and how they think) so that he can tailor his teaching style to convey music concepts to each individual student’s understanding.”

“Dan Lawrence is a gifted piano instructor who teaches music in a way that allows his students to learn and utilize their own knowledge and thinking skills from his patient instruction. He considers each students’ abilities in reaching their respective musical goals and helps to shape patterns of practice that will stay with a student for life. I have studied under many instructors over the years and can say without question that he is the truly the best teacher I have ever had.”

“Dan Lawrence has taught me more about jazz piano in 10 months of lessons than I have learned in the past 10 years. Dan can proficiently explain and demonstrate all aspects of performing a song in any style. Dan will not only teach the technique and theory behind the song, he will show you how to turn the song into music. He will make you want to practice. Dan Lawrence is an excellent teacher whose priority is his students’ complete education and well-being.”
