About Music Instructor Justin Janer

Justin's greatest passion is instilling a love for music in others!  After spending seven years working for world-renown early childhood music educator Lynn Kleiner of Music Rhapsody, he began teaching independently and exclusively as a private instructor.  This format allows each student to reach their fullest potential while gaining a wealth of knowledge on a individual basis

 

Justin recently moved to Northern California to work as the classroom general music teacher,

choir director, and band director at Pinewood School in Los Altos.  He is now proud to offer private music

lessons to students in Silicon Valley cities such as Los Altos, Santa Clara, Palo Alto, Sunnyvale,

Cupertino, Menlo Park, Mountain View, and surrounding cities.

 

Justin is also the Praise Team Leader at Hosanna Community Church in San Ramon.
