Academic Pedigree

Piano teachers on the Plateau hold degrees from the Schulich School of Music at McGill, Université de Montréal and the Conservatoire de musique de Montréal. Many balance teaching with active performing careers on the city's stages.

Others trained at Vincent-d'Indy, Concordia and UQAM, bringing both classical rigour and contemporary breadth. Musiprof reviews each teacher's background before they appear on the platform.

Local Presence

The Plateau has one of the densest concentrations of working musicians in Canada, and many of our piano teachers live right here, in the duplexes and walk-ups between métro Mont-Royal and Laurier. Lessons happen in home studios on quiet side streets or in your own living room.

Whether you are near Parc La Fontaine, avenue du Mont-Royal or rue Saint-Denis, a teacher is rarely more than a short walk or bike ride away.

Curated Expertise

You will find classical repertoire and RCM exam preparation alongside jazz, pop and songwriting-oriented piano. Complete beginners are welcome, and returning adult players are especially common on the Plateau.

Teachers adapt to whatever you play at home, whether that is an upright in a second-floor flat, a digital piano with headphones, or a keyboard in a shared apartment.

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

I live in a Plateau walk-up — will piano practice bother my neighbours?
Daytime practice on an upright is normal life in the Plateau, and a digital piano with headphones solves evenings entirely. Your teacher can also structure shorter, focused practice sessions so progress stays steady without long stretches of sound.
Should lessons happen at my place or at the teacher's studio?
Both work well here. At-home lessons save travel and let the teacher hear your actual instrument, while a teacher's home studio often means playing on a better piano. You choose the format when you book, and you can switch later.
Do teachers work with both kids and adults?
Yes. Some teachers focus on young beginners and school-age students, while others specialize in adults starting fresh or returning after years away. Tell us who the lessons are for and we will match accordingly.
Can I take piano lessons in English, French or both?
Yes. Most Plateau teachers are comfortable in both languages, and many families here deliberately choose lessons in their second language. Just note your preference when you request a teacher.
