Matthew Kho

SENIOR PIANO INSTRUCTOR ​
​Matthew Kho is an accomplished pianist from California. He has a strong classical background and has passed the MTAC Exams, making him an excellent instructor for students who wish to pursue a certificate program.

As a student, Matthew trained here at the Almaden School of Music. He has worked as a professional accompanist in the Bay Area for six years and has worked as a private piano teacher in the past. 

Mr. Kho specializes in helping students prepare for and pass the MTAC Certificate of Merit and ABRSM exams.

In addition to his musical expertise, Mr. Kho has experience with audio engineering and speaks mandarin Chinese.
​Matthew's philosophy as a teacher is that, first and foremost, music is FUN. While uncompromising on technique and theory, he believes it's essential to present them in a way that feels relevant and exciting. He also believes that every student should be able to read music. Quite a few of his students take the Guild and the Certificate of Merit Exams.

Testimonials

I was evaluating this school for my son's piano lessons but ended up joining myself. My son is very Young and I needed to try out some lessons before committing and the school worked with me through the process of trying out multiple teachers, who were all fantastic in their own league, but I was looking for a non traditional learning for my son.

So though we decided it's not the right time for my son to start here, I myself ended up joining one of the teachers who we tried out and liked. He is Mr. Matthew. As a teacher he had understood my goals and my expectations and is challenging me accordingly. I really like the class.

​The school's management was very involved and took lot of effort to understand my and my son's requirements and constantly followed up on the experience as a new student. This is rare to see but reflects the passion of the management towards music and towards customer service. I would recommend this highly. I also love the arts program of schools which I have walked by often and seen the amazing paintings that Young students make there.
