Hello and Welcome to Piano Classes with Irina Mares!

Hi there, I’m Irina! 

With a Master’s Degree in Musicology and a Bachelor’s in Music Education, plus over 17 years of experience in Romania, Belgium and now Australia, I’m well-equipped to guide both kids and adults through their musical exploration.

Why not start with a free trial lesson?

You’ll experience first-hand how I customize sessions for both piano for kids and piano for adults, ensuring every lesson is rewarding and tailored to your learning pace and style.

Let’s talk music! Whether it’s piano classes for kids or piano for adults, exams at AMEB, ANZCA or ABRSM, competitions or getting ready for a performance – I got you!

I cannot recommend Irina highly enough! My daughter has been taking lessons with her for more than one year now, and the progress she has made is really great. Irina is not just a talented musician but also a wonderful teacher who knows how to engage and inspire young learners. She is patient, encouraging, and incredibly knowledgeable. Irina makes learning the piano fun and exciting, and my daughter always looks forward to her lessons. She goes above and beyond to tailor each lesson to my daughter's interests and abilities, ensuring that she continues to progress and enjoy playing the piano. Irina's passion for music is evident in everything she does!

Irina is not only an incredible teacher, she is also a beautiful person! I played piano at a young age and slowly let it go towards my late teens. Towards the end of last year I realized how much I missed it. That’s when I found Irina. She has been so patient and so understanding during this familiar yet new process. She always makes the effort to teach in ways she knows I’ll best understand. The lessons are always a good time full of learning and laughs. I couldn’t recommend this beautiful soul enough!!!

I’ve been learning piano with Irina for 1 year now. Before Irina l had many teachers that teach from the book, which is fine until you have a problem. I wasted a lot of time where as Irina has teaching skills that get you playing and no wasting time. I would recommend her to anyone.

Irina is a wonderful teacher for my 6 year old son. She works with him to develop his interest in music, helps him focus and enabled him to perform for the first time at their end of year concert. Irina is the perfect mix of classical discipline and modern fun for those starting young.

Irina is a very enthusiastic, caring and incredibly knowledgeable piano teacher. She has a very deep understanding of the piano and music theory. Irina teaches her students in a way that most teachers do not, tailoring her teaching to the student’s needs and way of learning and understanding information. Every lesson is greatly enjoyed and made the most of. My daughter always walks out with a smile on her face and looks forward to her next lesson. Irina is truly very talented. Her cheerful disposition and dedication will suit students young and old, from beginners to advanced, including students undertaking VCE music studies. My daughter and I highly recommend Irina as your piano teacher.

Irina is the best piano teacher that our kids ever had. Irina is super dedicated and loves what she does. My kids got limited attention span and Irina has creative ways to keep them engaged and make them the best they can be. We are so proud that they were able to perform on the stage with confidence and enjoyment. Highly recommend!

Irina is one of those rare musicians who have been taught to a high standard, and can teach to a high standard whilst still maintaining a childs love of piano. My children love piano lessons and practicing because of her. They have so much fun at her lessons and progress so well through it because of her wonderful teaching style. I cannot praise her highly enough, and recommend her to all who want music in their childrens lives.
