Learning Creatively at
THE PIANO STUDIO
ABOUT US
Tailor-made Educational Services
My name is Yeli and I am from the Dominican Republic (and Ireland). I have been in Dublin for the last 10 years!!. My superpower is to help people like you learn to love music in the most fun, mindful and easiest way possible.
In my opinion the most important aspects when teaching are: to create a safe space which makes people happy, respected, fulfilled and part of a community whilst learning music.
If all of those are also important for you then you are in the right place to move ahead with your musical journey. I do this work because during the pandemic I have seen the transformation it causes in all of my students.
My work is different because I have personally taught more than 1000 students! And I have created a system based on all those student's needs.
The Piano Studio is focused on teaching music in a fun way without forgetting what is important including:
1. Listening to the students needs
2. Educating and empowering towards reading music (in a fun way)
3. Using music as a source of wellbeing (including some of the techniques I learned in Thailand a couple of years ago).
Most other music schools only teach students to move fingers and students are not fully musically educated.
