Piano Lessons Northeast

Instruments: Piano, Guitar, Voice

Learning an instrument can be a daunting task; I take pride in providing a comfortable and relaxed learning environment in which all students can excel. Our lessons are guided by the interest of the student. If there is a particular song or artist the student likes we will use it as a starting place and build from there. Regular practice is the most important ingredient. I can help show you not only What to practice, but How to practice in order to make progress and get the most enjoyment out of making music.

Instruments: Piano, Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet, Piccolo

I started teaching in college when I was a tutor in the mathematics and music departments as well as at an after school program in the neighboring town. After graduating I started teaching private music lessons in a variety of settings. I try to keep my lessons interesting and informative so that the student learns without getting bored. I am a patient, kind, and understanding teacher to students of all ages. Read More

Instruments: Piano

As a student, my teacher has been very patient with me when I had trouble with a particular technique or a difficult passage in a piece that took me quite a long time to get through. On the other hand, as a performer, I also have to be patient with myself while I practice and I also need to discipline myself in order to improve. Therefore, it is my task to make sure that my students get the most out of every lesson and that they can apply what they learn from each lesson to their own practice sessions. Read More

Instruments: Piano

I originally went to school for education and completed a degree in it. Since then, I have had students ranging from age 8 to 78, and although I am typically exposed to students starting as beginners, I would be very excited to help intermediate and advanced students learn new pieces, genres, and help hone their skills.

Instruments: Piano, Cello, Drums, Conga, Latin Percussion, Djembe

I find that as useful as many of the methods that I have found most useful for my own performance are, almost every one of my students in drums, percussion and cello requires a different blend of study materials. As a general rule, I rely on providing a balance of classic (some teachers go as far as to say 'canonical') books, and a wide variety of unique listening and independence exercises I've developed over the years.
