From an early age, Oksana always knew that teaching was her true calling. However, it wasn’t until the age of 12, when she first heard a Bach composition, that she discovered her deep love for music. The complexity and beauty of Bach’s work captured her imagination and sparked a lifelong passion for piano. Though starting her musical education later than some, Oksana’s determination and devotion helped her catch up quickly and pursue a path in music with confidence.
Oksana honed her skills at the prestigious Lviv National Music Conservatory, where she studied under renowned instructors and immersed herself in both performance and pedagogy. She graduated in 2021, but her teaching journey began much earlier. While still a student, she gained hands-on experience by teaching at local music schools in Bibrka and Zvenygorod, where she worked with students of various ages and skill levels.
Her teaching style is grounded in patience and personalized attention, ensuring that each child feels seen and understood. Oksana is known for her ability to break down complex concepts into simple, digestible steps, allowing her students to build confidence as they progress. Her passion for the piano is infectious, inspiring students to not only master the technical aspects but also to appreciate the beauty of the music itself.
Oksanaa’s greatest joy is seeing her students succeed, whether it’s performing in recitals or simply playing a piece they once thought was too challenging. She believes that with the right guidance and support, every child can reach their musical potential.
Oksana invites new students of all levels to join her on a journey through the world of piano, where she will inspire them to explore the beauty of piano music, just as Bach inspired her many years ago.
