Piano Lessons with Patrick O.

Hi, I’m Patrick! I love sharing the joy of music, and I’m excited to be teaching beginning piano lessons at City Strings & Piano. I graduated from Grove City College with a degree in music, where I had the chance to perform professionally and develop a strong background in music theory and composition. I’ve been lucky to experience music in many different ways—playing piano for my church, conducting orchestras, bands, and a few choirs around the Pittsburgh area, and performing throughout my college years. All of these experiences have given me a real appreciation for how music can bring people together and inspire creativity.

When I teach, I focus on creating a supportive and encouraging environment where students feel comfortable learning at their own pace. I love helping beginners build confidence, develop their skills, and most importantly, enjoy making music. Every student is unique, and I work hard to tailor lessons so that they’re both fun and meaningful. My goal is to help students not only learn piano, but also discover a lifelong love for music. I can’t wait to be a part of your musical journey!
