Our approach to violin instruction consists of a mixture of two methods: traditional and Suzuki. The Suzuki method is more.

Park Ridge IL, where we are located, is a Chicago suburb approximately 15 miles northwest of downtown Chicago. Park Ridge celebrated its centennial year in 2010. The town began its existence as a main location where brick was made for the city of Chicago, thus giving it the name Brickton at one point in its existence.
Student recitals are held twice in December and twice in June every school year. Participation in the recitals is not mandatory. However, most of our students choose to participate in the recitals because it gives them a chance to show their parents, peers and family friends what they have learned during the school year.
I have been a student of Yevgeniya for ten years. She has helped me evolve from a shy performer who struggled to get through books for beginners to someone who looks forward to taking on challenges of advanced Liszt and Chopin. She not only gave me hands-on advice about my technique but listened to my concerns at the same time.

My daughter started taking piano lessons from Ms. Jane when she was about 11 years old. When she started, I recall saying I was only hoping she would learn to read music and how to play basic piano. Fast forward 7 years and my daughter not only quickly achieved those goals, but went on to accomplish more than I had ever expected developing a a love of music and passion for musical theatre.
If it were not for Ms. Jane's guidance and counsel, my daughter would have never attended Interlochen Center for the Arts and Juilliard, which were pivotal in her growth trajectory. My daughter recently graduated from Maine South High School and was presented with the National School Choral Award for outstanding contributions to the success of the school vocal music program, which meant she was asked to sing our National Anthem at the Class of 2022 Graduation Ceremony.
My daughter plans to pursue her BFA in Musical Theatre at NYU Tisch School for the Arts in the fall. I have to thank Ms. Jane and the other instructors at the school for their ongoing coaching and support along the way. Without a doubt, I would highly recommend Yevgeniya Lepskaya's School of Music. I found a picture from one of my daughter's first recitals at the school and one from her recent high school graduation and included them here.

Fantastic school with fantastic teachers. Ms Jane is by far one of the best piano teachers. She's talented, yet humble. She's demanding of the students, yet very encouraging. She makes learning piano fun and enjoyable. We couldn't be happier with our experience and our daughter's progress in piano! Thank you Ms. Jane!

I started taking lesson from Yevgeniya (Jane) when I was 10 and fell in love with piano right away. She is very talented and was always an inspiration to me. Out of all the music teachers I've had throughout middle and high school band, Yevgeniya stands out, as she constantly pushed me to improve and truly cared about my success. Because of how passionate and engaging she is, I continued taking lessons and participating in recitals up until I graduated this past May. I'm so thankful to have had Yevgeniya as my teacher and I would HIGHLY recommend lessons here!

I feel I raised my family at Yevgeniya Lepskaya's school. I raised 3 children, they all took piano lessons from Yevgeniya who is a wonderful, inspirational, professional piano teacher. Our kids loved her and she made them feel special. We enjoyed the twice per year concerts. I had the opportunitity to enjoy the growth of all the other students and admire the work of all the other wonderful music teachers. I highly recommend the school. It feels like a second home.

Starting our piano experience this past year with Yevgeniya Lepskaya's School of Music for our son has been one of the best so far. Our piano teacher is very dedicated, passionate, and patient, and we are very pleased with the progress he has made. The program is very well organized and Ms. Jane provides great communication and support. We can't wait to continue our piano journey with our oldest son and provide the same amazing experience for our youngest child soon!

Our three daughters have been studying with Miss Jane for many years. Not only have they developed beautiful technical skills at the piano, but they've grown to deeply appreciate fine music. Miss Jane has high expectations but never makes children feel intimidated or nervous for their lessons. She is extremely sweet and caring, while still encouraging them to practice consistently. We adore her and are so happy our children study with her!
