“As a parent who's not nurturing a future pianist, Hoffman Academy provides the resources to help me teach my kids music at home. The pace of learning is good, the music theory part builds a good foundation for understanding music and not just know how to play songs. The only downside for me is the webapp can be a bit buggy at times. Otherwise it's the best piano programme for kids online!”
“Hoffman academy is the best piano curriculum for elementary and middle school kids. I have been teaching piano for over 15 years and this is the best online program I’ve seen for teaching yourself at home. I highly recommend this program!”
“Humorous (especially the closing puppet shoes) . . . this aspect has really kept my children's attention. The fact that they are practicing songs right away and can perform them in front of their peers has been a big plus for this program. Definitely worth the money, and the time saved being able to do the classes on our schedule either at home or at my job has been priceless.”
“Always wanted to learn how to play the piano. The lessons are simple to understand, well planned and organised. Thank you so much to make my dream comes true.”
“I've used Hoffman Academy for several years now as an adult learner. I cannot say enough good things about it! I love the convenience of being able to do lessons on my own time. The instruction is absolutely amazing given that it's a video lesson. Mr. Hoffman knows all the areas where you're likely to mess up and gives clear instructions on how to improve. I love the practice sessions too! I'm so grateful this resource exists!”
“My daughter has enjoyed Mr. Hoffman’s lessons and learned so much music theory (painlessly!!) in addition to learning to play. We also love that we can set our own pace.”
“We all love Hoffman Academy! Going at our own pace and on our own schedule that changes weekly is such a wonderful thing. And Mr Hoffman always makes it fun!”
“Both of my daughters are enjoying Hoffman Academy. They both know more about piano and music in general than I learned in 4 years of lessons as a kid. My oldest is nearly finished with level 12 and my youngest is in level 2. They like the extra lessons for popular songs.”
“Well paced lessons, great for beginner kids but also good enough for Adult learners. Interesting and varied musical pieces to learn. Prompt feedback to questions. Good variety of extra songs available to learn.”
“This has been great for 3 of my sons. They are learning a lot of music fundamentals and of course piano. And we don't even have to leave home! It's such a great value. And Mr. Hoffman is such a great teacher.”
“We love Hoffman, I have recommended it to so many friends! Two of my kids have used it. I love the independence it inspires, not to mention the good practice habits it instills.”
“I’m almost 72 years old and have decided to learn to play the piano. It is immensely helpful having the video lessons to review and the guided practice sessions for learning the songs. There are so many music fundamentals included in this course!”
“My 9 year old son has really enjoyed learning piano through Hoffman Academy. We use the premimum membership. I appreciate how well rounded the piano curriculum is and really like that it is self-paced. My son loves the silly part at the end of each video, and I like how the practice sessions give us structure for practice time. Sitting beside my son for each session, I end up learning along with him as gaps in my own piano knowledge are filled in. I wish I had been able to learn piano this way as a child.”
“Brilliant program! I have tried many apps/programs even piano teachers with my 6 year old, and this is the only one he really enjoys doing! I play the piano myself and I can definitely say Mr Hoffman knows what he is doing. He also has an excellent sense of humor which makes it more fun! Thanks for putting everything together so brilliantly.”
“Hoffman Academy is terrific. The curriculum is easy to follow, the games are not only fun and relevant but also, they encourage practice for improvement, and the songs are amusing to learn. The Hoffman Academy is providing me with many hours of enjoyment at my own speed. Thank you so much Mr. Hoffman for your positive approach to teaching music for all ages. I am so happy to be a lifelong member!”
“This is perfect for our family because we can do piano lessons when it fits our schedule, with no travel expense. Our son also has a tremendous ear for the piano and that is nurtured through Hoffman’s lessons where I think it would be suppressed through traditional lessons. The lessons are engaging, a comfortable length, and the added games, popular music and such is wonderful.”
