Music Lessons in East Side, NY

Instruments: Guitar Electric Guitar Classical Guitar

If a student isn't having fun in their lessons, then I'm not doing my job! My students are encouraged to enter competitions and recitals, as well as work on composing their own original material, so they can feel good about their accomplishments and stay motivated to learn.

I also want my students to be successful and be proud of the performances that they are a part of. Read More
