Considered “Best Colombian Young Pianist 2018” after winning the first prize in the national piano competition in Colombia. I have a Master's degree from Liszt Ferenc in Budapest, Hungary, and a Master's degree from Columbus State University in the United States. I am currently a piano professor and collaborative pianist at the Universidad del Valle and Conservatorio "Antonio María Valencia" in Colombia. Besides my career as a pianist, I have over 10 years of experience in teaching Piano, music theory, and history for all ages and categories. Even if you are a beginner we can make it! I have a personal method where I combine both classical and commercial repertoire depending on the student’s preferences. I usually play four hands with my students as well and organize at least one concert a year with all my students where they can meet and share their experiences. If you are an enthusiast about piano competitions, we can also work on that together. I will guide and support you through all the steps of the learning experience.

Juan is a very good pianist and a good teacher! I learned a lot from my first lesson and it was a nice experience to me!
I would highly recommend Professor Juan. He is a very attentive teacher who knows how to identify what each learner needs in order to progress. He is also a kind, patient person who clearly wants his students to succeed. He shares interesting, relevant music history and theory during lessons in a way that is easy to understand and retain. At the end of the lesson, he clearly outlines what the student needs to study from one session to the next and he is responsive to questions and communication. Gracias Profe Juan !
Juan makes the class interesting enough to retain the interest of the student and he is very knowledgeable. Very good 👍 teacher !
Juan is as much experienced in playing piano than teaching it, what makes him the kind of teacher that help you learn fast and in a very pleasant way. Piano lesson with him aren't just about moving finger and repeating things over and over, it's also about understanding things through music theory and music history, which is very important to me. He has perfectly adapted the lesson according to my taste and level and also the way I like to learn things. If you're looking for a comprehensive, experiment and pleasant piano teacher, then I highly recommend you to book a lesson with Juan!
Juan clearly understands what is needed and necessary to move you to an upper level in your musical and technical progress and immediately gives the necessary support and feedback. There are various ways to handle the teaching and Juan finds the right tools creating a perfect communication.
