Conservatory-trained teaching, at home
San Marino parents tend to be selective about teachers, and rightly so. Every Everyday Piano School teacher is conservatory trained, teaches children only and stays with your child every weekday, so the teacher who meets your child in the trial week is the one who guides them for years.
Progress is easy to follow. After every lesson you get a short note about what your child worked on, and every Friday you get a recording. Lessons fit around San Marino Unified schedules, with no time lost in traffic.

Weekly lessons stall. Daily lessons stick.
The lesson isn't the problem. The six days in between are, when your child practices alone and repeats the same mistakes.
| Compare | Weekly lessons | Everyday Piano School |
|---|---|---|
| Lessons a month | 4 | 20 |
| Practice | Alone, six days a week | With a teacher, every weekday |
| Mistakes fixed | A week later | The same day |
| Updates for you | Rarely | A note after every lesson, a recording every Friday |
| Typical cost | $160 to $280 a month | $699 a month |

Who teaches your child
Every teacher is conservatory trained, teaches kids only, and is chosen for patience first and musicianship second. Teachers never rotate. The teacher your child meets in the trial week is their teacher.
Safe by design
- Every teacher is background-checked
- A parent is home during every lesson
- Lessons are recorded on the school's account, and you can watch any of them
- All messages go through the school, never a teacher's personal phone

Questions parents ask
How qualified are your teachers?
Every teacher is conservatory trained and teaches children only. They're chosen for patience first and musicianship second, and they never rotate.
Do you prepare students for RCM as well as Certificate of Merit?
Yes, both, from Level 2. Exam preparation is part of the daily lessons rather than a last-minute push.
Does my child need a piano?
Any 61-key, touch-sensitive keyboard is enough to start. By year two, your child will need 88 weighted keys, either a digital piano or an acoustic. Your teacher will help you choose when it's time.
What ages do you take?
Children 7 to 14. If your child is under 7, book the assessment anyway. We'll tell you honestly whether daily lessons will work now or in a few months.
Is it really every day?
Every weekday. Monday to Friday, 20 minutes, with the same teacher. Weekends are off.
What if we miss a lesson?
Reschedule it within the same week. We don't drop lessons, because the daily rhythm is what makes this work.
Do you prepare for Certificate of Merit or RCM?
Yes, from Level 2. Your teacher builds exam preparation into the daily lessons, including theory, ear training and the exam pieces. Read our Certificate of Merit guide for parents.
Is 20 minutes enough?
For a child, 20 focused minutes with a teacher beats 45 minutes alone. Mistakes get fixed the same day instead of practiced for a week. Daily feedback is the method. More in how long kids should practice piano.
What if my child already plays?
The assessment places them at the right level. We have three, so a child who already reads music starts where they are, not at the beginning.
How does the guarantee work?
Tell us within 30 days of your first paid month and we refund that month in full. One email is enough.
See the difference in one week.
A free assessment, then five free lessons. If your child isn't asking for the next one, we'll tell you.
