  • It has always been my dream to play a musical instrument and besides, piano teachers are two a penny.

  • Piano was my instrument of choice because I've always wanted to play a musical instrument and besides, piano teachers can be found on every corner.

1. It has always been my dream to play a musical instrument and besides, piano teachers are two a penny. If something has always been your dream then it's a wish that you had or would like fulfilled. The phrase, "two a penny" means that it is something that is very common and not difficult to source. Example sentence: Tall, thin models are two a penny in Hollywood. 2. Piano was my instrument of choice because I've always wanted to play a musical instrument and besides, piano teachers can be found on every corner. The phrase, "instrument of choice" means that this is what you selected/chose/opted for. The phrase, ''can be found on every corner" means all over or everywhere. Example sentence: A beggar can be found on every corner in Bengal.

  • I chose to play the piano because it is a popular instrument, which means there a lot of places which offer classes.

  • I chose to play the piano because its popularity means there are a lot of places that offer lessons.

  • Piano is popular, so there are lots of places to take lessons.

All of these phrases convey your key information: you play the piano, it's a popular instrument, and a lot of places offer piano lessons. The third phrase is probably the most simple.

  • I chose to learn to play the piano because it's quite popular and not difficult to find a teacher to give me lessons

Knowing how to play an instrument is a great advantage. Some people use this advantage as a hobby while others use it as a career. You can teach music or play in a band. There are many opportunities. This sentence explains that you know playing the piano is popular and that you didn't have any problems finding a teacher to teach you how to play

  • I like playing the piano because it is easy to access lessons.

  • One reason I started learning to play the piano is because it is popular.

  • The piano is a great instrument to express myself through music.

One way to say there are many places that offer lessons, is to say there is easy access to lessons. This means that teachers are common and there is no difficulty to find lessons. You can express the popularity of playing the piano with saying, "One reason I started to learn the piano is because it is popular". Some examples of answers as to why you play piano could be that you want to express yourself with music. The piano is a way for you to express your creative side through music.

  • I wanted to play a popular instrument and have no problem finding a tutor

  • I love piano because its easy to find a piano teacher!

When asked why you started playing the piano, you want to explain the reason: you wanted to be able to play an instrument, and because the piano is popular, and there are many places you can take lessons. In that case, one of the above suggestions may be appropriate. There are always diverse ways of saying something and it is necessary to consider factors such as: nationality of the listener, body language and appropriacy when forming your response or conversing.

  • I've always been determined to play a musical instrument, and since piano teachers are a dime a dozen, I chose to play the piano.

A good expression to use that suggests that one has a strong desire to do something is "determined." This would be said if the goal is a high priority. "A dime a dozen" is an idiom that means that there is a large amount of something, though it could possibly be taken as a way to express that the value of something is low, so it is important to be cautious when using this idiom to avoid causing offense to anyone.
