          Ms. Mariana Lajmanovich's teaching philosophy is based on her intense love of music and the belief that all people can learn.  Her unique style combines a rigorous approach to piano technique, which allows students to improve their playing while fostering healthy habits and preventing injuries, with a profound knowledge of the piano repertoire and how it should be introduced to students at various levels of their journey.
          Ms. L's own journey began at the tender age of 4, and she has not stopped learning since.  Ms. L completed her undergraduate studies in her parents' native country of Argentina, graduating at the top of her class and earning a Bachelor of Music degree in Piano Performance and Music Education, along with a K-12 teaching certification.  Then, she continued her musical studies at the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, where she obtained a Masters degree in Piano Performance and Music Education, studying under the tutelage of Estela Kersenbaum Olevsky.  
          In Los Angeles, Ms Lajmanovich trained in the Yamaha Music Education system and taught at various music schools before committing to the Los Angeles Unified School District where she has served as a piano instructor, new teacher mentor, music department chair, content coach, and now Director of Keyboard Studies at Hamilton High School's prestigious AMPA.
