About Harlan
With over 5 years of experience teaching piano both in-person and online, I’m passionate about guiding students toward meaningful and confident musicianship. I hold a Bachelor of Music in Piano Performance, and my teaching blends academic training with real-world musical experience. Whether working with beginners or advanced players, I focus on building a strong foundation while encouraging personal expression. My teaching philosophy centers on active participation, musical intent, and developing a well-rounded skill set. Each lesson includes a mix of technique, theory, creativity, and musical context. I often incorporate elements of music history to deepen understanding and inspire curiosity. I adapt my approach to fit each student's learning style, goals, and pace. From first-time learners to experienced performers, I’ve supported students at every stage—including those preparing for professional work. My goal is to create an engaging and supportive space where students feel inspired to grow. Together, we’ll explore not only how to play music, but why it matters. If you're ready to begin or continue your musical journey, I’d love to help you take the next step. Let’s make music meaningful, joyful, and uniquely yours.

My piano teaching approach blends strong fundamentals with creativity and clear progress. I focus on developing solid sight-reading skills, finger technique, and musical expression from the start. For students preparing for exams or performances, I provide structured lessons that include repertoire building, theory, and practice strategies. I also use progress tracking tools to keep learning focused and rewarding.
Improvisation plays an important role in my lessons, helping students feel free at the keyboard and connect with music on a deeper level. I introduce simple improvisation exercises early on, gradually building confidence and fluency. For more advanced learners, we explore harmonic choices and stylistic variation. I integrate technology through virtual piano apps, digital sheet music, and metronomes to make practice more engaging and precise.
Whether you're aiming to pass a piano exam or master classical pieces with expression and polish, I adapt lessons to fit your goals. My approach supports students who are serious about performance as well as those looking to enjoy music more fully. I keep lessons encouraging, organized, and suited to your pace. With the right mix of discipline and inspiration, I help students grow into confident, capable pianists.
