88 Keys Academy - O'Fallon, Illinois

I wish I could say something better about 88Keys because the reviews are all so glowing. My daughter and I were in a horrific car crash and had to cancel our lesson same-day. My daughter was admitted to the hospital.

88Keys charged us for missing the lesson. I was frustrated that they charged us for a lesson we literally could not attend, and didn't even ask how my daughter was doing. That's the part that bothered me was that they seemed to not care at all. Attached is the condescending response from the owner after a 15-year-old was hospitalized. I'm sincerely disappointed in this place, and the way they treated us.

I absolutely love 88 keys!!! I have been taking piano lessons here since I was 5 and have been teaching piano for about 4.5 years. Working here is an absolute joy, and it is such a warm and welcoming environment for both teachers and students! All of the teachers are so kind and really help students to build their musical abilities and confidence, and I would highly recommend 88 Keys for anyone who is looking for music lessons!

88 Keys Academy is the best piano studio!! I took lessons from Charla when I was a kid and now my own daughter just started taking lessons! We love Mrs. Charla and family! She is so supportive, kind, outgoing, and teaches the kids so much. Taking lessons at 88 Keys Academy is so easy and flexible too. The kids learn so much all while having fun! I highly recommend 88 Keys!!

I had enjoyed my piano lessons from 88 Keys Academy for several years. Charla Warren is a great teacher and her young staff of teachers are very talented and very friendly. I do recommend them for not only piano lessons, but guitar lessons, drum lessons, or other musical instruments as well.

EDIT: after attending lessons for a couple of months, ai cna say that this is a great academy for children learning music. I cannot recommend it to adult learners, however. Even considering the late response time, I think 88 Keys Academy is a great resource for children learners.

I made multiple attempts to contact with no follow-up. The Email on my sign-up promised a follow-up within one buisness day. Poor buisness practice.

The perfect studio if you are an adult wanting to learn how to play the piano. I have taken lessons and my instructor (who happens to be the owner) is very knowledgeable and I have learned so much. I highly recommend 88 Keys Academy. I would not go anywhere else!

My daughters have attended 88 Keys for years. My oldest is 13 and began playing at age 6. My youngest is 6, and began with 88 Keys in the Pre-K program at age 3.5.
When choosing a piano studio, after thorough research, I found that there was no better studio than 88 Keys. The experience, friendliness and impeccability of the staff is out of this world.
They offer evening and weekend lesson options that made it so much easier for our family. They have multiple tuition package options, allowing us to save money when purchasing our lessons.
The studio itself is bright, immaculately clean, warm and welcoming. 88 Keys utilizes state of the art technology, including mobile app, to manage your scheduling and tuition payments. They just couldn't make it more convenient for parents!
The students are given tons of opportunities to perform live, and continued incentives to keep them excited and eager to learn to play the piano.
One of the coolest things has been watching the Studio grow and blossom. Over the past few years, they have increased their staff, adding multiple, multi-instrumental, highly gifted teachers who bring so much to the table! It's not just piano lessons anymore! Students have the opportunity to learn violin, drums, guitar, cello, harmonica.....the list goes on!
There is no better choice. 88 Keys is the premier piano studio in the area.
