Pierce is an exceptional instructor who provides the highest quality of lessons. In just a few months of learning from him, I have noticed a significant improvement in my technique. Compared to my previous teacher whom I worked with for over a decade, Pierce identified several incorrect habits that I wasn't aware of and taught me how to correct them. Although it takes time, his method is effective, and I am amazed at how quickly his lessons have made a difference. Moreover, Pierce not only teaches fundamental techniques but also explains the pieces, their composers, and how to play different sections to connect with the audience, bring out the proper sound, or convey more emotion. His vast knowledge on various topics and skills as a world-class concert pianist make him an excellent teacher for aspiring musicians at all levels. Therefore, I highly recommend him without any hesitation.

Out of all the teachers I have worked with, Pierce Emata stands out as one of the most exceptional. What sets him apart is not only his meticulous approach to perfecting a piece, but also his ability to explain concepts in a way that is easy to understand. Pierce's proficiency in technique is what truly impressed me, and after taking lessons with him for over two decades, I can confidently say that he transformed my piano playing for the better. Now, as a teacher myself, I draw on his techniques to help young students establish good habits and continue their progression. Without a doubt, I highly recommend Pierce Emata as an excellent choice for anyone looking for a top-tier piano teacher.

Pierce Emata is an outstanding individual who excels as a pianist, teacher, and a compassionate human being. I was fortunate enough to receive training from him and even in a brief period, he was able to elevate my piano playing to new heights. His curriculum was expertly crafted to suit my needs and he remained patient and considerate throughout our time together. I feel privileged to have had the opportunity to learn from him. Thanks to his enjoyable selection of music pieces and his expert instruction, I not only improved my playing, but I also learned the correct techniques to play the piano with ease and power. I am truly grateful for what he has taught me and for helping me play without tension.

With confidence, I can assert that Pierce Emata is the finest piano teacher in Las Vegas for those who wish to take their craft seriously. Having been a former student of his and now a professional musician myself, I can attest to the fact that Pierce will push you to surpass your limits and refine your skills into the musician you were always meant to be. Pierce never wastes a second of your time during lessons and consistently brings his best efforts. Additionally, he treats his students with utmost respect at all times. However, he will never underestimate your capability for hard work and discipline. Pierce will provide you with challenges, yet ones that are feasible for you to achieve, in order to help you get the most out of your piano education. Be it any direction you aspire to musically, Pierce Emata will equip you with the necessary tools to get there, and beyond. As a living testament to the effectiveness of his teaching, I highly recommend his excellent services.
