Founded and Operated by the Professional Musician
Music Teacher LA came to existence out of one incredibly skilled teacher and musician’s passion for music and teaching, her creative ability to motivate and excite students, and her desire to spread the love of music and learning to musically inclined children and adults.
Music Teacher LA founder, Olesya MacNeil, graduated with three Masters’s Degrees in Music, Psychology, and Pedagogy from a prestigious university in the former USSR. Olesya has been providing quality private music lessons since 1991.
Our founder was a highly sought after piano teacher in the Los Angeles area. She taught the children of Larry King, Billy Baldwin, Dan Beckerman (the LA Kings’ governor), Susannah Grant (the Oscar-winning screenwriter), Bennett Schneir (the animated film producer), and many other professionals.
Olesya assembled a team of highly professional and experienced musicians who share her burning desire and enthusiasm for quality music education. >>Read more about our FOUNDER
