About Jonah
I’m a Berklee College of Music-trained musician who attended on a full scholarship and graduated Summa Cum Laude with a degree in Contemporary Writing & Production. I’ve spent over six years teaching students of all ages and levels nationwide. I specialize in piano instruction, helping students learn their favorite songs and turning the music they love into real skills. I taught adult hobbyists at Musicians Playground in Boston, mentored young adults in Washington, D.C., and instructed kids at Richardson School of Music and Encore Music. I bring the methods I developed at Berklee to every lesson, making each session personalized, engaging, and focused. Every lesson is designed to turn the songs and styles you love into real musical understanding, helping you grow as a well-rounded musician while having fun along the way. In addition to my teaching experience, I have toured the country and played arenas as a DJ-producer.

Music should feel inspiring, not intimidating. My lessons are rooted in the professional training I received at Berklee College of Music on a full scholarship, and I bring that same high-level approach into lessons that are personal and genuinely fun. I have taught students around the country and have worked with all levels, with a focus on learning music through immersion. Whether you're picking up the piano for the first time or you're already experienced, you’ll learn your favorite songs while gaining Berklee-level skills at a fraction of the cost.
What sets my lessons apart is that they’re centered around the music you love. If you’re into pop, jazz, R&B, blues, or something else, we’ll use those songs as our starting point. I’ve taught students of all ages and levels, from kids to adult hobbyists, and I’ve worked with a wide range of learning styles, including neurodiverse students. I offer both online and in-person, and I meet each student exactly where they are.
Instead of abstract exercises, we’ll break down real music to understand how melodies, chords, rhythm, and harmony actually work, so what you learn immediately shows up in your playing. Most of our time will be spent playing real music, because music is best learned like a language: through immersion. This approach helps you build strong fundamentals, improve your ear, develop technique, and grow creatively, all while working on songs you genuinely enjoy.
Whether you prefer online lessons or in-person sessions in Los Angeles, I’ll tailor each lesson to your goals and learning style. This is your chance to experience the methods used at one of the best music schools in the world in a way that’s affordable, approachable, and enjoyable. I’ll help you learn your favorite songs, build technique, all while making music an exciting and fulfilling part of your life. Let’s get started!

I've taken Jazz piano lessons with Jonah and here is why he is amazing. He knows how to explain Jazz theory so that it's easy to understand, gives you many improvisational ideas and so much is covered during lessons. I've learned so much during my season with Jonah. He is an inspiration and a great motivator.
Jonah is a great teacher for newbies like myself. He makes lessons fun and stress free. I highly recommend him!
Jonah is deeply knowledgeable, insightful, and open-minded. Most importantly, he approaches his music and his teaching in a thoughtful way: he empowers his students to learn, and inspires them to want to learn.
I can’t recommend Jonah Spiva highly enough. He is an incredibly talented musician with a deep understanding of music theory and an impressive versatility across instruments. Just as importantly, Jonah is a genuinely kind, empathetic, and hardworking teacher who truly cares about the people he works with.
He has experience teaching students of all ages and learning styles, and he has a natural ability to meet students where they are and help them grow with patience and encouragement. Jonah brings thoughtfulness and intention to every lesson, and it’s clear how deeply committed he is to his students’ progress and confidence.
Jonah is a seasoned professional who combines musical excellence with compassion and dedication. Any student or program would be lucky to work with him, and I recommend him without hesitation.View more recommendations
