Elli Kozak Music

My 11-year-old son had been taking Piano lessons with Elli for a year and he loved it. It was always fun.Elli has a certain kind of magic in connecting with his student; my son considered Elli to be his best friend and was always looking forward to meeting him (during lessons of course). Elli has the ability of recognizing talents in his student and encouraging them to develop while enjoying the learning. Elli is kind, friendly, warm, funny and patient. He's like family.It was a gift to have him as our piano teacher. We would love to continue but Elli had to move out of town. If we are ever going to be in the same town again, we'd definitely look him up and pick up Piano lessons from him again!!

Elli is a talented musician who makes piano lessons fun and engaging. His approach to teaching is open-ended and based on student interests. He's very good at explaining different musical concepts and helping you out with skills you may struggle with. I highly recommend learning with Elli. I've been studying with Elli for over a year and have really enjoyed my time!

Elli is an extraordinary piano teacher and we were so lucky to have him teach our 6-year old for a year. By the end of this year, my little one can play simple piano songs by reading notes without looking at the keyboard and his hands! Elli has brought his own edition of pop music adapted to the beginner level so that my little one can now play his favourite Coldplay. But most important is that Elli has an extraordinary patience and exquisite communicative skills and approach to kids. He was always willing to talk with my son about his science projects before they practice and built the great teacher-student relationship with him.

Elli has been my daughter’s piano teacher for over a year now and we have found him to be a tremendous instructor! He challenges her to push herself beyond what she is thinks she can do, has the musical knowledge and ability to help her through tough lessons and encourages her to believe in herself. I’ve seen her talent and love of the instrument increase and highly recommend Elli!

Elli played at our wedding ceremony and was absolutely amazing. Working with Elli was great; he is professional, responsive and extremely talented. Elli Kozac Music created a wonderful atmosphere during our ceremony - thank you!

Both my daughter and I have been taking lessons with Elli and we both enjoy it immensely. Elli encourages students to pursue their musical interests and effectively teaches a wide variety of genres, from pop to classical and everything in between. He provides valuable constructive feedback and takes a positive and supportive approach to lessons that makes students feel well-supported in their piano journey. Elli himself is an exceptional musician and his depth of knowledge is evident in his teaching.

My son gets truly attached to Elli and is always looking forward to the lesson with Elli. During the whole year of learning with Elli, my son has made great progress in his piano skills. Elli is skilled at teaching kids. He's patient, and dedicated to the success of students. Words can't express my appreciation for Elli. Unfortunately, we have to move away from this city. Hope to find a piano teacher as dedicated as Elli.

Elli is a total pleasure to take lessons from. He is thoughtful, attentive and knowledgeable and his ability to explain musical concepts has dramatically accelerated my piano progress. Highly, highly recommend.

Elli is an absolute star. He was able to connect with our then, four year old, in a quick and great way and we have been working with him since. He’s also great with virtual classes and able to connect those dots and accommodate the madness that entails when working with young ones. Totally recommended!

I had Elli as a teacher for about 2 years and he was best of the best. Despite learning piano since childhood, he's opened my eyes to the world of music and I've become a much more proficient pianist ever since. He's always shared his love of music through his teachings, hoping to share his bit of happiness. He's always encouraged me and never gave up to find the best technique for any piece. He has a great connection with all of his students and is never seen without a smile on his face. Even through online learning he always knew if a technique could be fixed. He's very knowledgable with theory and demonstrates connections between theory and piano playing -- especially with his broad knowledge of genres and music history. He is a teacher that I would always recommend for anyone interested in learning piano or theory. Thank you for teaching me :)
