The instrument that teaches everything

Piano gives you melody and harmony at once, so it teaches the fundamentals — reading notes, rhythm, and chords — that carry over to every other instrument. That’s why many students begin here before branching out. Beginners play real songs from the first lesson, and the skills transfer directly if you later explore other instruments we teach in Toronto.

“But I’m not sure about piano…”

We hear these a lot. Here’s the real story — and if piano isn’t the right fit, many students start with guitar lessons in Toronto instead.

“Piano is too hard: all those keys!”

You only use one key at a time when starting. Most students play recognizable songs within their first month.

“I’m too old to start an instrument.”

Adult students often learn faster. Better focus, quicker comprehension. We have students from 5 to 85.

“I don’t have time to practice.”

Even 15–20 minutes a day makes a huge difference. Many students find it’s their favourite quiet time.

“Pianos are expensive.”

Start with a digital keyboard: less than most people spend on a vacation, lasts decades.

Still not sure? That’s what the trial is for.

Bring your doubts, your questions, your rusty scales. $20. 30 minutes. We’ll take it from there.

Piano lesson questions

At ABC Academy in Toronto, a trial piano lesson costs $20 (30 minutes). Regular private lessons are $55.38 for 30 minutes or $64.81 for 45 minutes or $72.55 for 60 minutes. Lessons are available at our St. Clair West or Lawrence Park studios, or online.
Start with your trial lesson first. We’ll help you find the right piano or keyboard for your budget and space.
Absolutely. Adult students often progress faster because they understand the “why” behind techniques. We have students in their 60s and 70s starting from scratch.
Most students play recognizable melodies in their first few lessons. A full song with both hands typically takes 4–8 weeks.
Not necessarily. We teach by ear, chords, and charts alongside notation. We’ll find the approach that works for your goals.
We’ll match you with another instructor, no questions asked. Teacher fit matters and we take it seriously.
For piano, yes. Clear key visibility, real-time demonstration, and recordable lessons for practice review.
ABC Academy has two Toronto piano locations: 12 Conway Ave in St. Clair West (west of Dufferin, near Corso Italia), and 2180 Bayview Ave at Lawrence & Bayview in North York (Lawrence Park). Online lessons also available across North America.
ABC Academy offers conservatory-quality teaching without mandatory exam curricula. Unlike a single independent teacher, we have multiple qualified instructors, a guaranteed teacher-match policy, and two Toronto studio locations. Students preparing for RCM exams are welcome; students who just want to play songs for enjoyment are equally welcome.

Start with a $20 trial lesson.

Meet your teacher, play your first song, and see if we’re the right fit. All in 30 minutes.

What Parents and Students Say

ABC has provided my three children more than a top quality musical education. The committed, kind, and talented instructors have contributed to their development as people.
Alejandra Bravo, Parent of Galya, Felix, and Oscar
My son Owen is excelling as a bass guitarist thanks to the instruction at ABC. We really appreciate the professionalism of the teachers and the hands-on management of the school. It’s clear that the director truly cares about each student’s success.
Kat Spiwak, Parent of Bass and Rock Band Student Owen
ABC has given my daughter Natina so much confidence performing in front of an audience. The director, instructors, and office staff are so positive. I highly recommend ABC to anyone, young or “older” when wanting to learn music.
Anne-Marie Smith, Parent of Drum Student Natina
My son began guitar lessons at the age of 5, with all the attention span one might expect of a 5-year old. I’ve been so impressed with the patience and good humour his teachers have displayed! Now 7, Simon loves playing music, especially at recitals, and I am a very proud mum :)
Leslie Ambedian, Parent of Guitar Student Simon
We wanted to expose our son to music and what we got from ABC is a highly educated teacher who is teaching our son to aim higher, be confident, and play beautiful music. Our son loves the school.
Usha Tomar, Parent of Guitar Student Shray
Along with teaching her the discipline required to play an instrument, ABC has provided her with an atmosphere in which she has discovered an infinite joy and appreciation of music. By joining the Rock Band program this year, she has also learned to appreciate the importance of working, in harmony, with others. Most of all, ABC is a FUN place to learn. Many thanks to the teachers and staff.
Amanda Tower, Parent
I’m 38 years old and I just started playing trumpet last summer. I’ve been studying with ABC the whole time and I have learned a ton, and had a great time doing it. My teacher is great and makes sure I work hard. Thanks to my teacher, ABC and the gang for making ABC such a welcoming place for an old dog like me to learn a new trick.
Vladimir Jon Cubrt, Adult Trumpet Student
I take Vocal and Piano lessons with different teachers and I’ve learned so much. All the teachers are nice to me as they’ve gotten to know me, and they always encourage me to learn new things.
Sara Brandao, Voice, Piano, and Rock Band Student
