Piano Lessons


About Me

My name is Olivia Swart and I teach piano from my home in Clayton, NC. I received my bachelor's degree from NC State in Business Administration and I began teaching in 2022. I am a classically trained pianist with over 16 years of experience and I have played saxophone for 10 years as well. I have a strong background in both jazz and classical music. My lessons are designed to create well rounded musicians by balancing theory and performance skills. This includes learning to read music, chord theory, exploring different genres of music, and performing in front of an audience at recitals (attending recitals is not mandatory, but public performance is a great skill to have in music).

"I'm an adult  leaner- never played piano before. Olivia is not only an excellent pianist but also a super patient instructor who keeps layering learning which keeps me on my toes. I'm very much enjoying learning from Olivia and excited to keep on learning."

"My son has really enjoyed learning to play the piano with Olivia over the last 10 months. She teaches him the foundations while keeping him engaged with fun songs. I highly recommend Olivia to anyone who is interested in taking piano lessons!"

"Ms. Olivia teaches my 5 and 6 year old girls. They love going into lessons and always come out smiling. Her patience and knowledge are apparent with how much they have learned under her instruction."
