🎹 Your child plays melodies for hours… but gets bored with scales.
You wonder — how to keep the spark alive without killing the joy?

Let me tell you something personal.
When I started piano lessons as a child, my biggest dream was to play songs by Elton John and the Backstreet Boys. 🎶
But… nobody taught me those. I had to figure them out myself.

I didn’t know what scales were. I didn’t care about exercises.
But I did have one magical teacher who changed everything.
Before starting a new piece, she would play it and ask me:
“How does it feel?”
And that was the moment I lit up.

✨ In my own teaching now, I follow two golden paths:
1. I spark a child’s interest by opening new musical worlds — ones they’ve never heard, but instantly connect with.
2. I support their own musical taste — even if it’s not classical, or doesn’t fit the “perfect” curriculum.

Because here’s the truth:
🎼 A child who loves the sound they’re creating will come back to the piano again and again — not out of duty, but joy.

And that joy…
💛 Makes the practice light
💛 Keeps the attention strong
💛 Brings results that satisfy everyone — the parent, the child, and the teacher.

🌟 The door to my classroom is still open for a few more students.
If this message speaks to your heart — come on in.

🎶 Charity Concert: Music of Skryabin 🎶

Last days, I had the honor of performing the music of Skryabin — a Ukrainian songwriter and singer whose songs carry deep meaning, honesty, and life philosophy that touches every heart.

This charity concert became not only a musical event, but also a meeting of souls — a way to unite, to remember, and to share love through music.

It was a special moment for me and my students, as we connected with Ukrainian art, felt its sincerity, and shared it with our wonderful community here.

You can now watch the concert and support it with your ❤️

Thank you for standing with us and keeping Ukrainian music alive wherever we are. 🌿

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

🎶 The Magic of Loving What You Play 🎶

In music education, one of the most important — yet often overlooked — elements is love for the repertoire.
When a child connects emotionally to the piece they’re playing, everything changes.

When the melody settles into their heart, when it brings joy, curiosity, or a sense of beauty — practicing stops feeling like “homework.”
It becomes something they want to return to again and again.

That’s when magic happens.
Their little hands start to move naturally, fingers dance freely across the keys, and progress comes effortlessly — not through pressure, but through inspiration.

As teachers and parents, our task is to help children find the music that resonates with them — the sound that speaks to their soul. Because once they love what they play, learning becomes a journey of joy, not a chore.

💛 Let the music they love lead the way — and you’ll be amazed at how fast and beautifully they grow.

🌸 One of the greatest joys of teaching is meeting students whose presence leaves a lasting impression — and Francesca is certainly one of them.A charming and gentle young woman from Chile, Francesca stood out not only for her warmth but also for her remarkable focus and work ethic. From the very beginning, I felt honored to work with her, and even more so when I was invited to become her recommended coach for preparing an important competition at her High School.We spent a vibrant and memorable period working together on the music of Chopin. Each lesson was filled with dedication and depth, and I watched with admiration as she poured her heart into every phrase, balancing technical mastery with emotional expression.Her hard work paid off. Francesca went on to continue her artistic journey, earning a place at university where she is now furthering her musical path. I have no doubt that her future will be bright, and I look forward with excitement and hope to all that she will achieve.✨ Soon, I will be sharing more of our work together — a beautiful chapter of music, growth, and inspiration.

✨ Full schedule, but no joy? ✨

If you’ve ever felt like you’re rushing from one activity to another, and yet your child’s eyes don’t shine anymore — that’s a sign of overload. The calendar may be full, but joy is fading.

At MWO Academy, we believe music should restore a child’s energy, not drain it.
🎵 Our lessons are designed to give children confidence, focus, and the spark that keeps them curious.

💌 Enrollment is open — let this school year be the one where your child’s eyes light up with music.

Running from activity to activity… but your child’s eyes don’t shine anymore? That’s not progress — that’s overload.
When your child’s schedule is full… but their eyes don’t shine anymore. ✨
Back-to-school season often brings overloaded calendars. Yet more doesn’t always mean better.
Music should give energy, not take it away.
💛 In our Academy, we look not at “how much,” but at how the child feels after each lesson.
How to Recognize Healthy vs. Draining Lessons

Not all “tired” is the same.
🎶 Healthy tiredness: warm calm, curiosity, eagerness to show what they learned.
😔 Draining tiredness: tears, irritability, “I’m not good enough.”
👉 A parent’s best compass is not the practice chart — it’s your child’s body language and their eyes.

🎶 A Special Premiere for Our MWO Academy Family!

Dear friends,
Sometimes music speaks louder than any words I can say in class.
I’m so excited to share with you a special moment — the premiere of my new music video.

This is more than just a song. It’s a story, a piece of my soul, and a reflection of everything I believe music can bring — connection, inspiration, and light.

I would be truly happy if you could watch it, feel it, and maybe even share it with someone who needs a moment of beauty today.

💛 Thank you for being part of our musical journey. Your support means the world to me and to MWO Academy.

🎶 Post–Invitation to MWO Academy
(Vocal + Piano | Individual and Group Lessons)

Here, we don’t just hear music.
We hear you.

MWO Academy is opening enrollment for the new school year.

For those who have been singing since childhood — and for those who have only been singing inside themselves.
For children whose soul is searching for form.
For those who value not only learning, but also feeling.

I’m Olena — a teacher, musician, and a person who believes:
true change doesn’t begin with notes, but with connection.

In our Academy, music is not just a program.
It’s a path. It’s support. It’s a mirror.

✨ Individual lessons — like a meeting one-on-one with yourself
✨ Vocal or piano — in a genuine way
✨ Age-based groups — lively, friendly, and inspiring
✨ Therapeutic effect — I see it in every second student:
→ concentration improves
→ emotional state becomes brighter
→ self-belief is born

You can learn many things online.
But you can only truly open up in the presence of another —
someone real, attentive, and accepting.
And I am here to be that guide.

💌 Message me in Direct or via the link in my profile.

Let music give back to your child what is so easy to lose in the noise of the world —
their true self.
