Academic Pedigree

Adult piano students in Burnaby work with teachers trained at UBC, Capilano University and other respected programs, many with Royal Conservatory of Music certifications. All teachers are vetted before joining Musiprof.

Just as important, these teachers choose to work with adults and enjoy it. Lessons are patient and judgment-free, whether it is your first lesson ever or your first in thirty years.

Local Presence

Teachers travel to homes across Burnaby, from Metrotown and Edmonds to Brentwood and the Heights. If you have a piano or digital piano at home, the lesson comes to you.

For those who prefer to play on a teacher's instrument, some offer studio lessons that are easy to reach by SkyTrain on the Expo or Millennium lines.

Curated Expertise

This page is for beginners and returners: adults starting from nothing, and adults who quit as kids and wish they had not. Teachers rebuild reading and technique gently, without the drills you may remember.

Repertoire follows your taste, whether that is classical, pop, film music or jazz. Some students aim at Royal Conservatory exams; most simply want to sit down and play something they love.

Where do lessons take place?

Musiprof is a marketplace of independent, vetted teachers — not a school with one address. You choose how and where you learn:

At the teacher's studio

Learn at your teacher's private studio.

At your home

Your teacher travels to you, for a small travel fee.

Online

Live one-on-one video lessons, from anywhere.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are there any hidden fees or subscriptions?

No. The price on a teacher's profile is the full price you pay — no subscriptions, no contact fees. Some teachers who are members of the GMMQ (Quebec Musicians' Guild) include a pension surcharge, but this is always included in the displayed price. You are only charged when a lesson is confirmed by your teacher.

Do you offer in-person lessons near me?

Yes — Musiprof primarily connects you with teachers near you for in-person lessons at home or in studio. Online lessons are also available. Beyond private lessons, we offer a band program and community recitals for a complete musical experience.

What happens after I purchase?

The teacher will contact you within 24–48 hours to schedule your first lesson. If there's no contact within that window, Musiprof follows up on your behalf.

What is the refund policy?

You only pay for lessons taken. We refund untaken lessons minus a small cancellation fee (the lesser of $50 or 10% of the remaining value).

How frequently do lessons unfold?

By default, lessons are designed to be taken once per week to help you maintain consistency and momentum. A 5-lesson package, for example, is intended to be completed in 5 consecutive weeks. However, we understand that every student's goals are unique. If your teacher agrees, lessons can be scheduled at a different frequency (e.g., every 2 weeks or once per month). Please discuss your preferred schedule with your teacher during your first contact. Your package includes a 30-day grace period after your last scheduled session. If you are doing bi-weekly lessons, ask your teacher to extend your session dates in the system to ensure your file remains active.

Is there a Satisfaction Guarantee?

Yes! We want you to find the perfect match. If your first session isn't right, contact us within 48 hours. We'll credit 50% of the lesson cost back to your account so you can try a different teacher immediately.

Why should I pay through Musiprof instead of paying my teacher directly?

Paying through Musiprof is what keeps you protected — the Satisfaction Guarantee, refunds, and dispute support only apply to payments made on the platform. Paying a teacher directly (cash, e-transfer) voids those protections, and we can't help if something goes wrong. If a teacher ever asks you to pay outside Musiprof, please let us know.

Is Musiprof like a music school with semesters?

No. Musiprof has no semesters, terms or registration deadlines. You start with a single first lesson, covered by our Satisfaction Guarantee. After that, you continue at your own pace: buy a package of lessons or pay lesson by lesson. Unused lessons are refundable, and you can switch teachers at any time.

Do I have to buy a package?

No. After your first lesson, you can buy a package (usually a better price per lesson) or pay à la carte, where your card is charged after each completed lesson. Each teacher sets their own prices and lesson formats (in studio, at home or online), so check their profile for the details.

More about piano lessons

Is a digital piano good enough for lessons?
Yes. A digital piano with weighted keys is a great starting point, and most adult students in Burnaby learn on one. Your teacher can suggest an upgrade path if you ever want one.
I took lessons as a kid and quit. Where would I restart?
Your teacher will assess what stuck in the first lesson or two. Most returners are surprised how quickly it comes back, and you will move past true beginner material fast.
How much should I practice between lessons?
For adults, twenty focused minutes most days beats a single long session. Your teacher will give you a short, specific practice plan so you always know what to work on.
Can I learn without reading sheet music?
Yes. Some teachers work by chords and ear, especially for pop and jazz styles. If reading matters to you, it can be layered in gradually rather than being a gatekeeper.

The Musiprof Community

Many of our piano instructors in Burnaby also coach our Band Program. When you learn with us, you're not just getting a teacher; you're joining a local network of musicians.
