Piano should stretch your skills and spark your passion.

Make Piano Easy is for those who crave real progress—engaging practice, tailored routines, and a challenge that leads to breakthroughs. We’ll take your skills further than you imagined.

Break Out of the Loop. Play With Purpose.

Too many musicians get stuck playing the same patterns with no clear path forward. At Make Piano Easy, we give you the structure, feedback, and inspiration to break through.

What You’ll Get in Every Lesson:

  • Tailored lesson plans — built around your skill level, your goals, and your style.
  • Live visual keyboard guidance — see every note in real time during virtual sessions.
  • Learn to play by ear, improvise, and produce — not just read and repeat.
  • Explore advanced genres like jazz and gospel while sharpening your foundation.
  • Guaranteed growth — whether you're just starting or already advanced, we meet you where you are and help you level up every time.
  • Fun, focused sessions — 30 minutes of real progress every week.

Whether you're a worship musician or a creative explorer, we're here to help you push past the plateau — and finally play the way you’ve always imagined.

A Proven Process for Real Progress — No Guesswork, Just Growth

We get it — everyone says their lessons work. But here’s exactly how Make Piano Easy actually helps you grow, week after week.

🎯 Step 1: Clarify Your Goals & Starting Point

We begin by finding out where you are now and what kind of musician you want to become — so we can build a path with your destination in mind.

🧭 Step 2: Build Your Custom Lesson Plan

Based on your goals and skill level, I’ll map out a personalized lesson path that plays to your strengths and grows your weak spots.

🎹 Step 3: Weekly Live Lessons With Austin

You’ll meet with me live every week for focused, 1-on-1 sessions that combine structure, creativity, and real musical progress.

🔄 Step 4: Reassess & Adjust Monthly

Every month, we revisit your goals, track your growth, and tweak your lesson plan so we stay aligned and momentum stays high.

📚 Step 5: Learn Your Way With Custom Resources

You’ll get access to practice tools, PDFs, backing tracks, and video materials — all chosen to match your learning style and support your weekly lessons.

We don’t just teach you songs — we train you to become the kind of musician you didn’t think was possible.

Meet Your Instructor

Hey there! I’m Austin Pacholek — a worship musician, band leader, and passionate piano coach.


I didn’t start piano as a kid like most. I picked it up later in life — but thanks to the mentorship of world-class instructors, my entire musical trajectory changed. What began as a late start turned into over a decade of focused playing, deep study, and leading bands in worship and performance settings.


Now I help others experience that same breakthrough. Whether you want to learn chords, develop an amazing ear so you can play what you hear, or build that natural “feel” that great players have — I’ve developed a system that blends structure with freedom, designed to help you grow faster and enjoy the process every step of the way.


Whether you're just starting or feeling stuck, you're not alone — and you're closer to real progress than you think.
