Instruments: Piano Organ Accordion Keyboard
My basic teaching philosophy is "If a student can't learn the way I teach I will teach the way they learn". It's a personalized approach. For children I typically start with John Thompson's Teaching Little Fingers To Play as a basic piano lesson book. When the student starts progressing to the point where they can play fairly well I try to explore others books and songs that may interest them and keep them motivated. Read More
Instruments: Piano Drums
On piano, for beginner students, I often start them on some of the primer level method books, either from the Faber and Faber "Piano Adventures" series or the Alfred beginning piano series and then transition to having the students learn music they want to learn and are excited about playing. I often will make custom transcriptions/arrangements of songs my students like that are especially designed for their skill level. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
My first concern when I meet a student is to raise their interest and curiosity about music. I find that when the student is fascinated about the instrument he is learning, his will to progress and learn more makes our work together much more efficient and improvement much faster. The desire to learn must come from the student, no matter the age. Learning music requires a lot of hard work, perseverance and self-discipline. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I use the score to pose questions about the way musical material is organized, how it reflects the composer’s ideas, and what makes the score coherent to the player and the listener. In this way, a score is one point of focus for developing interest and a questioning attitude—practices that will serve students for a lifetime. I believe that our ability to talk about music emerges from the experience of “thinking music” as performers and that we truly learn music by using its grammar. Read More

I'm passionate about giving the student the best information to improve their love and skill for the Arts. I make it fun thru techniques applied from manny years of experience in teaching and performing. I'm dual certified in New York and New Jersey and have made music a major part of my life (I met my wife at Music College.) I have taught in many settings and places to acomadate the learning situation. Read More
Instruments: Piano Drums Bass Guitar Double Bass Oboe English Horn Music
My teaching style is aimed at helping my students express themselves through music, and enjoy playing their instruments. The starting point for this is learning the basics (scales, long tones, arpeggios, etc), but I also encourage my students to improvise and allow themselves to freely play their instrument in a joyful way. I also help them learn pieces and styles that they love. Through working on all of these aspects of being a musician, and encouraging them to take performance opportunities, I help my students to really find their own voice on their instrument. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practice every day at least 20 min
It becomes a habit. Make it ether first thing in a morning or same time after school. If you practice every day for three years you will see what a change it will make in your technique.
Start your practicing with the scales, then play songs. Never play a new song from the beginning to the end. Work out the mesures that not working well enough. Make a family concert, play for family members couple times a month. Use metronome to ensure you are always on time.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Usually a child is ready when he/she knows his ABC and can count from 1 -10. The best time is when a child is 6 years old, but every child is different. We have to look at the entire package. Does a child able to move all his fingers. Can he or she play with both hands. Are the fingers strong enough to push the keys down to make it sound. Also we have to look if the child has any delays talking, or understand directions. After viewing all the factors the child can pass the test, you can be sure he is ready to play.
When will I start to see results?
You can see results shortly after 6-8 lessons. Depending what method you will be teaching, after 1.5 month or 2 months children can play three easy songs. Older students are able to handle harder pieces and play more difficult or longer song. Every child is different, but with a lot of practice and pation you can see results any time from 2-3 months. Hand positioning and fingering usually need adjustment for the 12 months for the young children.
If you continue practicing every day, you will get the technique faster than you are expecting.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I had two Russian teachers and I am so thankful today. They were very strict but knew how to aprouch to teach. They both were very different. One was very young and used to demonstrate in a very pationate way, the other teacher was old, and used to perform with dynamics. Sometimes closed the book, and say you have to practice more.
At the beginning I used to get frustrated. Endless practicing made me to understand how to perform with correct fingers and beautiful dynamics. I dearly love memories about both great teachers.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I loved piano the most. I had a best friend that played piano. Her piano was so advanced. Just by looking at her fingers moving fast, I didn’t want to play any other instruments. Very shortly after couple months of great instructions, my fingers became so fast as well and I am so glad I chose a primary instrument piano. Piano is the easiest instrument to start playing and the hardest instrument to master. I love challenges and take studying seriously. Piano was my favorite instrument when I was a child and still is.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
My special method is to teach from N. Fibers books. Her books are most sequently written. The books are fabulous full of pictures, directions and excersizes. It comes from very introduction how to play on black keys and takes you to the songs with different levels. It teaches you entire music theory. The books teaching important things you need to know when you starting. Every student should have a beginners book.
Students can start learning from Alfred’s or Bastien books as well.
Variety when you have a lot of students is good. I do teach Suzuki method as well. Every book is for a different student.
