My 11 year old son, who has Down Syndrome, has been an in-home student of Derek Hudson for over three years now, and he is thriving in his piano lessons! Derek meets him where he is, engages his interests, and has the technical knowledge and skill to help him move forward. Phillip excitedly looks forward to his lesson time each week and willingly practices in between. Our family unreservedly recommends Hudson Piano Studio!

We are grateful for Hudson Piano Studio. Our two sons are loving to learn music and play the piano. Mr. D (Derek) is well-organized and conscientious of time. He is flexible and connects with the students, engages them, rewards them and motivates them 100 percent. He’s kind, thorough and extremely professional. Most importantly, he’s a skilled musician and very talented. Any student would benefit from his enthusiasm, patience and having him as their music teacher!

Gone are the days of stuffy boring piano lessons! Derek from Hudson Piano Studio makes the lessons fun and engaging and silly! My kids love when Mr. D comes to the door to teach them to tickle the ivories. Derek makes learning the piano fun with games and prizes and you can tell that he genuinely loves his students. My kids are encouraged to learn fundamentals of piano but also to play songs that they personally enjoy to make the teaching experience personalized to them.
