Benton Piano Studios is located in Wake Forest, North Carolina. We currently serve students in the Raleigh, Wake Forest, and Research Triangle Area with private individualized piano instruction. We specialize in beginner to advanced levels of study. We are proud to say that we were the first recognized piano studio in North Carolina to be verified by Steinway and Sons, the premier piano manufacturer in the world. We are also recognized as a  Steinway and Sons Teacher and Educational Partner. Lessons at Benton Piano Studios are taught on a Steinway. We offer personalized lessons to students in the local area, and maintain a commitment to help others discover and reach their full musical potential. Furthermore, we offer our students the opportunity to participate in piano festivals through the Raleigh Piano Teachers Association, The North Carolina Music Association, as well as the Music Teachers National Association. Our lessons focus on motivating and guiding our students towards success. In addition to teaching in my private studio, I am the head of the piano department at Durham School of the Arts. As an experienced and passionate piano instructor, I believe in a methodical approach that gives students positive and constructive ways to learn, thus planning our lessons around the student's needs which enhances their self-confidence and ability to develop their musicianship. -John Benton
