Music has been an integral part of my life since I was a young boy. I think that my pedigree will attest to the level of my musicianship, and I currently maintain a studio of over 40 students.
I have a great deal of experience (over 20 years) teaching private lessons with students of all ages.
Pianist - Felici Piano Trio, 1998-2001
Staff Accompanist - University of Georgia, 2001-2006
Instructor - Faber Piano Institute, 2006-2009
Musika lessons and private studio instructor, 2009-present
For younger students, I use the Faber Piano Adventures and supplement with Classical and Jazz materials. I am very familiar with this method, as the Fabers were my teachers throughout high school and I taught for them at their piano Insitute in Ann Arbor, MI, for several years.
My background is fundamentally classical, but I do have quite a bit of experience with jazz and pop styles as well, and can teach them confidently.
Jason works with the kids and keeps them engaged in learning. He uses technology, manipulates, and keyboard to tailor the training to their interests.
I've been very happy working with Jason. He challenges me every time, and yet is very patient. I'd recommend him wholeheartedly.
