While lessons need to be well-structured to make sure that a student learns all the proper foundation work, there should be plenty of space for fun and creativity within these boundaries to maintain a healthy relationship with music. Much like learning a new language, music isnt meant to be a solitary activity, and I believe that playing with other student musicians is essential to developing a musical ear and ability. Read More

I feel that in this process it is very important to both commend students on their achievements and to offer constructive criticism in a way that is compassionate and helpful. Read More

As a recent transplant to Brooklyn, I look forward to using my experience to build a successful portfolio of new students in New York.

My teaching style is much different than most schools. I have taken lessons my whole entire life and I decided to make a change. Parents will recieve a professional audio recoding of each lesson so they can hear what their child is working on. We offer recitals every month so student can showcase their talents to family and friends. This is crucial for students to perform so they can understand and feel the satisaction of performing music.

Also performing in concerts gives them goals to work for so I try to have my students to perform at some assisted living places and more several times a year and the more they perform usually the better they improve. It can be encouraging to see that others make mistakes too and that noone is perfect. I like students to learn how to read as soon as they can, but I honor the suzuki idea that it is good to learn to play the first few pieces by ear so listening does not get lost in learning to read.
