What people are saying about Piano With Kent
“Piano with WHO?”
“It’s piano with WHOM, I think.”
“Bananas for rent? What are you, nuts?”
Okay, that’s a joke, the stuff below is where it’s at!
I. Online Reviews of “A Study in Blues Piano“
“Very clear instruction. Great licks. Extremely useful and easy to implement. I found myself improvising for the first time ever in my life, thanks to these great lessons and fun licks. Fun. Informative. Enjoyable. Jammable. Love it!”
“Sehr leicht nachvollzieh – und umsetzbar, vor allem richtig gut dosiert und das führt natürlich zu einem besseren Lernerfolg. Danke und viele Grüße…”Google translation: “Very easy to understand and implement, especially well dosed and that naturally leads to a better learning success. Thanks and best regards…”

From email:
“…They enjoyed the lesson so much and couldn’t stop talking about it. Thanks again!”
From email:
“Hi Kent…I wanted to let you know there is a difference in the way views playing piano. Lately, she wants to practice and learn the pieces on her own. She is finding a newfound enjoyment in playing and learning from you…”
From email:
“Also want to give you heads up: We had this Halloween party, had lots of friends come. Of course, her piano skill impressed some of the parents. <Jane’s> mom, <Mary,> got your number from me. Jane is in the same class with Nancy, they are good friends. Mary said that she saw kids learning piano for years, still couldn’t play a song. I told her, it’s all because of Nancy’s fabulous teacher, Kent Smith!”
On Thumbtack (from a guitar and piano student):
“Kent’s music knowledge and experience make the lessons enjoyable. He puts time and effort in every session, and makes sure I leave with all my questions answered. Kent has customized my lessons based on my musical taste. I pick a song I’m interested in and then Kent incorporates the technique and theory I need to learn the song. I came to him with zero knowledge on how to play guitar and piano, and a year and a half later I have some songs under my belt. I especially love that he encourages me to try new songs on my own. I highly recommend Kent as your music teacher…”
Online review from a private student:
“…Kent surprised me with his broad knowledge of music styles, techniques and theory – classical, jazz, blues, boogie – and his playing skills. He’s patient, uncritical, and always encouraging and he structures his lesson plans around my musical interests…I like him personally and know I will learn quickly with him…”
Online review from private student:
“I tried out many piano instructors in my area and was very impressed with the quality of instruction I received from Kent. He is extremely personable and committed to helping others like myself enjoy playing the piano. Once you are one of his students, he will go out of his way to support your learning via phone, email and anything else you may need to help you progress in musical goals…”
We’ve got lots more comments and reviews out there, but this should suffice.
I wasn’t trying to brag…
But… I DO want you to come back a lot, and hang around.
I have lots of free content here, so please keep coming back to visit!
