I'm a university music student and also teach a little bit, and the problem with online music lessons is that they are not as hands on as traditional lessons. They work if you keep at it, though. 27 keys isn't really a lot to work with, but it's great for a beginner like you. When I took piano lessons as a kid I learned on a real piano, 88 keys and all, but the main focus was on the middle section of the keyboard, which is probably about 40 keys.

I don't know of anything online as I've never used those lessons, but keep looking I'm sure you'll find something! An alternative to that is to look through classifieds and ads - usually university or college music students teach their instrument to get experience and they will advertise there. Students usually have really low rates, sometimes unbelievably low. I'm a flute player and teacher, so I probably won't be of much help to you!
