Instruments: Piano Voice

It is important for both me and my student to have long-term and short-term goals. Long-term goals may have to do with technique--for voice, examples may be releasing tension or singing with proper breath support. Short term goals are more linked to repertoire and can be technical or musical. An example on the piano may be playing through a piece with a particular metronome marking. I have each of my students use a practice log so both the student and I can keep track of short-term goals. Read More

Instruments: Piano Drums Bass Guitar Latin Percussion Keyboard

I began teaching privately in Colombia and continued throughout my entire college experience. I've been a part of music schools for years, both as a student and faculty, and that experience has shown me that every student is different and as such the teaching must adapt.

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet Mallet Percussion

I'm a passionate, motivated, and organized instructor who loves working with my students to share my love of music. I graduated from Northwestern University this June with my Bachelor of Music degree in Music Education and Saxophone Performance. I maintained a studio of six saxophone, piano, and percussion students while earning my degree, so I am very experienced with private teaching! As a saxophone player, woodwinds are my specialty. I am very comfortable teaching saxophone, clarinet, and flute, in addition to non woodwind instruments like piano and percussion. Read More

That teaching job led to work teaching general music in a pre-K afterschool program at Academic Day Care in Jersey City. From there, I was able to garner a few more private piano students. Success there led me to expand my free-lance class-room music teaching to include two more Jersey City schools for general music teaching (The River School and Mount Pisgah Academy) and A Child's World Day Care Center in Bayonne.
