Only the best music instructors.
All of our instructors are carefully selected, have degrees in music, and many are sought-after performers in Portland’s music scene.
They undergo regular observation and training to stay up-to-date in the Hoffman Method. We perform background checks on each of our teachers in order to ensure their suitability to work with children.
Learn about our Portland Academy instructors below, and visit HoffmanAcademy.com to learn more about our founder and his world-famous piano method!
