Music Lessons in Bedford, NY

Instruments: Drums Conga Djembe

I was born into a family full of musicians and I was thought how important and helpful it is to learn an instrument for anyone not only professionals. At 12 years old I started performing and at 14 I started teaching thanks to my dad (drum instructor) who introduced me to the amazing experiences of sharing knowledge about music. Since then I haven't stoped teaching and searching for information to share with anyone interested. Read More

Instruments: Conga Latin Percussion Djembe

As an instructor, I take pleasure in teaching students of all ages and skill levels. Each student is approached individually with personalized attention based on their abilities and needs. My approach emphasizes intuitive learning while also incorporating technical analysis for a well-rounded education. For those just beginning with drums, I like to start by introducing basic sounds and specific exercises to build a strong foundation. As their skills develop, I gradually introduce more intricate patterns and variations, helping them transition between patterns and create drumming arrangements. Read More

Instruments: Piano

Piano became a concept that determined my way of life beyond a passion. The way I can best explain this special way of perceiving to people is through training. I hope to see different landscapes by looking through my window and to increase this sharing exponentially.New york is like a rich music book that is the cradle of cultures. I love to be in this diversity and to instill musical backgrounds from different cultures in my students. Read More

Instruments: Voice

It is good to start singing lessons around age 11, when the voice starts to change - even though it can feel awkward at first. There are hormonal, physical, and emotional changes in those early teen years that respond well to the lyrics and stories told in many contemporary songs. I work to match the stories as well as melody and vocal range to the songs I give all my students. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice Music

My teaching style involves setting realistic goals and making sure the environment is fun and invigorating. I always like to make sure I am teaching my students what they want to learn, but I do occasionally challenge them by assigning more advanced material that I envision them performing or think would be beneficial to them. I celebrate all of my students' achievements and always remind them of how far they have come, especially when they get to more difficult material that may test them. Read More

Instruments: Piano Flute Recorder Piccolo

My approach to teaching anyone music is to present it as a unique language, one that anyone in the world can use to communicate with anyone. Therefore, my initial emphasis for each student is to help them master the flute in terms of technique and tone so that they can then concentrate on the style of music that they love. Lesson plans are very detailed and great emphasis is placed on problem solving and working out ways to improve while the student still juggles a busy schedule. Read More

Instruments: Violin Viola

As I said above, I have been teaching since I was in high school and began studying the Suzuki Method at the age of four. I believe that anyone is able to learn an instrument no matter their age, as long as they stick to a regular practice schedule, have patience, are passionate, and have goals in mind at all times. My goal is to make the learning experience unique for each student. Read More
