Instruments: Piano Drums
I've been teaching for the past 7 years. I started out giving private lessons in my studio in israel. Later on when I moved to Boston, I began giving private lessons at students homes ( students age ranged from 9 - 45). During this time, while attending the New England Conservatory, I also gave master classes at public schools as part of an outreach program I participated in. After graduating NEC, I moved to New York. Read More

I am a third-year undergrad at NYU, studying Music Education with a concentration in instrumental performanceand I love it! Currently, I am working on the last of my classwork before student teaching full time. I hope to graduate in May 2024 with a B.M. in Music Education and my NYSED pK-12 certification. I play clarinet with the NYU Wind Symphony, where I'm also Operations Manager, as well as the NYU Orchestra 2, Tisch New Theater pit orchestra, and as a soloist. Read More

Teaching piano is a great joy. My goal is to help students develop the skill to make playing music fun and satisfying, whether their goal is to become a professional or to simply enjoy playing for its own sake. I've worked for several arts agencies (Arts Horizons, Healing Arts Initiative, CREATE) so I've had the privilege to teach music in a variety of settings. While teaching in a classroom setting is immensely satisfying, seeing individual students grow in proficiency, dexterity. concentration, is an even bigger thrill. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
I am sure, I was born a teacher, because when I explain anything, even in piano class, guitar or voice classes, I can see the reactions of the student when they understand me. They feel so happy and I feel so proud. From 1980 to 2013 I was piano and guitar player for a lot famous singers like "El Indio Araucano and Leo Marini and many more in the New City area. Read More
Instruments: Piano Organ Synthesizer
I have been teaching beginning to intermediate piano students since I began my conservatory training. I am currently teaching piano and ear training pedagogy as part of my doctoral studies at the Manhattan School of Music. I admit that I instinctively rebelled against the hypercompetitive structure of the music conservatories, and focused instead on composition. I found that sidestepping this most stressful performance environment allowed me to keep my love of just playing intact. Read More

I believe that creativity is important and I use Alfred and Hal Leonard books as well as theory books to help with the lessons. For adults, I try to find out what the student is interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun, no matter their ability level. I also try to teach music theory, chord progressions and all the musical scales in the major keys. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
My teaching style is flexible depending on your needs. If you need a more strict style (perhaps you are working on college audition), then I'll make sure you have the proper technique, repetoire, sight reading, and skills needed to succeed. If piano is more of a hobby than a career path, we can work with that as well! Everyone has a different style depending on their needs. Read More

Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I have used Hal Leonard, Alfred, and more. I see what I think the student needs and I will pull pieces out of a book or exercises too. I create my own lesson plans that are geared towards success in terms of the student's goal. I do have sight reading books that the student will utilize every page. I believe this is fundamental knowledge for the student to know. I also create my own sheet music with Sibelius or Musicfirst, notation software. I also have the student compose their own piece of music and improvise. These are all skills a well-rounded musician should know how to use.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
When I practice I play for about two to four hours. I start with scales using a metronome. I play my modes using one scale per session. I will play them in a swing style and as straight quarter notes utilizing techniques such as legato or staccato. I will sight read a few pieces without stopping, even if I make a mistake. i will sight read a technical piece a few times correcting my mistakes. I will play a jazz piece, melody first, bass line second, and solo last. I will improvise gloves with a metronome or drum machine. I will transcribe a piece of music by ear, then ear-train by singing bass lines or melodies using solfege.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have two music degrees. One is a performance degree and one is a music education degree. I have said this throughout my profile, I love music and I love education. I wanted to get a performance degree because I love playing music. I wanted to get a music education degree because I love teaching. To teach music means I get to play while I teach, and that is the best of both worlds. I am really passionate about teaching and education in general. I remember how excited I was to learn how to play and read music and I want to pass that feeling along.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I do not have a dream piece of music. As a bass player I had to learn how to play many styles of music in order to get gigs. I love playing any kind of music. I play anything from traditional celtic music, hip-hop, indie rock, jazz, and classical. For me it is all great to play. There is nothing better than picking up your instrument and know you will have fun, but also to get paid to do so. If I had to choose I love playing anything where i have freedom to create. Creating bass lines is a great thing.
