Piano Lessons in Midtown Manhattan, NY

Instruments: Piano Synthesizer Music Keyboard

Minimally, beginner students can expect to learn how to read notes, play basic exercises, and train their sense of pitch, while intermediate and advanced students will study more complex music theory, technical exercises, and improvisation. All students will also learn how to practice efficiently so as to maintain a consistent rate of growth along their musical journeys. Essential materials for all students include: a scale and arpeggio book, a binder to store new music, and a notebook to write assignments and any other important information learned in lessons.

Instruments: Piano Voice

I believe it is important for voice and piano students to have a basic understanding of music theory, as well as technique. I pull material from a variety of sources. For piano, I typically use Bastien and/ or Hal Leonard. For voice, I build a build upon the "legit" classical foundation of voice training (Similar to a dancer learning ballet first, before other forms of dance) Following that, I cultivate my students to find their own particular genre of vocal style.

Instruments: Piano Voice

I first started teaching when my piano teacher assigned me to be her assistant back in 2009, I provided her 7-28 year old students with singing lessons. As I proven myself to be an accomplished instructor I received a job as Choir Instructor at School of Music 'Vladimir Djordjevic', where I worked for 1 year before heading to Boston to start my studies at Berklee. In 2010 I started teaching private lessons part time in my home studio, where I conducted voice, piano, music theory, and solfeggio lessons to a total of 16 students, who showed incredible improvements over all 4 years that they stayed under my instruction.

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Music Keyboard

For absolute beginner students of any age, we begin outside of a book as the best way to learn is from personal experience. With wind players for example, we work on breathing, posture, and hand position as these three components help students produce a quality sound in as comfortable of a way as possible. Moving into more formal studies, I used the Standard of Excellence series for young children and the Rubank series for more intermediate students. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Clarinet Bass Guitar Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

When I was 15 years old I began teaching to a few kids I knew from high school on guitar. I also began teaching my friend Max Kroll's little brother who was only in 3rd grade at the time. I continued teaching on and off for money and just for friends who wanted to learn throughout the last ten years. I believe like anything else teaching music lessons is about networking and keeping a positive reputation so students will refer me other students. Read More
