I'm a complete beginner starting piano as an adult, and Bassem has been fantastic. He uses every 40-minute lesson efficiently and taught me how to practice effectively on my own outside of lessons as well. He's patient, encouraging, and creates a comfortable environment. I've come to be more passionate about piano after every lesson.

Bassem is a gem of a teacher. He has clear objectives for each of his students, and creates lesson plans that reach towards those goals. He is structured, thorough, and patient. I have developed great music foundations working with him.
As a person, he effuses warmth and passion for music. It is clear and apparent he enjoys what he does. I am lucky to find a piano teacher that motivates me to reach further in my journey with music. I leave every lesson inspired and excited!

Great piano teacher!! Very patient, and encouraging as well! It is the little things, tips and tricks, that you can't learn on your own but only from someone who has the experience!!

Bassem is a great piano teacher and a really nice person—welcoming and kind. My son loves his classes. Bassem provides a mix of fun classes and technical skills. He works with my kid on classical music and some video game songs. I really recommend his classes.

Bassem is hands down the best piano teacher I’ve ever had. Lessons are genuinely fun with him.

He’s so passionate about sharing his love for piano and you can tell he knows what he’s talking about. Hard to find teachers like Bassem.

Highly recommend 🙏🙏🙏

Bassem is a great pianist and teacher. This is a great opportunity for young adults who want to learn piano. He is kind, patient, and explains everything very clearly. Lessons are never rushed, and concepts are taught in a way that’s easy to understand. I always feel comfortable asking questions and learning at my own pace.

Bassem is a very fine pianist and a great teacher. My 8yo girl took piano lessons from him for more than 2 years and that definitely helps shaping her piano skills. She can play and self learn piano in her own time now.
