I have had over 20 years of teaching experience in voice and guitar. In addition to my private teaching practice, I've taught at The Little Red School House in Manhattan as well as the Groove Academy in Edison, NJ.

I have a very patient and laid back personality which I think benefits most students.  The last thing a student wants to feel is pressure from their teacher to perform up to the teacher's standards.  Everyone has a different idea of success and this also translates in the world of music.  Some want to become world-class virtuosos, while others want to simply enjoy playing music for their personal fulfillment.  Neither path is right or wrong and I will work with all of my students to maximize their particular goals.

If a student isn't having fun in their lessons, then I'm not doing my job! Read More
