About Jil

Learning piano is one of the most rewarding gifts you can give a child, or yourself. But the experience is only as good as the teacher who guides it.

Jil has spent years developing a piano practice built on classical technique, and she brings that same disciplined care to every student she teaches. Lessons begin with the fundamentals great pianists are built on: proper hand position, music reading, and music theory from the ground up. These aren’t just technical checkboxes; they’re the tools that unlock real musical expression, and they make every piece a student learns feel more meaningful.

What sets Jil apart is her belief that classical training and musical joy aren’t opposites. Her own repertoire spans Chopin to Yiruma, and her teaching follows the same range. Students are encouraged to bring the music that moves them, whether that’s a Bach minuet or a piece they discovered online. The classics build the foundation. The music students love keeps them at the piano.

Lessons are available for ages 4 and up, beginner through advanced, at Piano Distributors in Clearwater, FL. Whether you’re starting your child on their musical journey or finally sitting down to learn an instrument you’ve always wanted to play, Jil would love to hear from you.
