About
Lesson plans are designed to fit individual needs for challenge, growth, progress, heightening confidence and skill levels at the student's comfortable pace. I pay attention to what students want and deliver the goods. I also lead in presenting options of skills that are important. Lessons are fun, safe, and relaxed. Being engaged in the creation of good music, musicians, and singers is the most rewarding I can think of doing. I enjoy seeing my students grow as independent practitioners of musical and performing arts.

Rich is a wonderful teacher! He meets his students where they are, and tailors his lessons to their specific learning strength and music taste. He makes sure to teach theory in addition to technique and is patient, kind and funny. I came to Rich about 6 months ago as a full-time employed adult never having touched a piano. We started at the beginning, and with a bit of trial and error, figured out my learning style. We now meet twice a month, and I'm very happy with my progress. (My husband also seems happy to hear me play). While Rich is a Jazz enthusiast (ask him to play for you, he's fantastic), he's happy to work with you to get you playing any type of music! I would recommend him for students of all levels.

I interviewed a number of teachers before I decided to work with Mr. Kalman and he turns out to have been a perfect choice. Though I'm a beginner and haven't had experience with other piano teachers, I have had plenty of experience with teachers, and was a teacher myself, so I know an excellent teacher when I see one, and, in this case, have one. I just retired and although I don't expect to be a star pupil, or play recitals, I've wanted to learn piano all my life and I'm willing to do the work. But as Rich reminds me, it's important to keep the emphasis on "play" in playing the piano. The lessons are fun and Rich is encouraging, but he does give me homework and holds me to task. I can see and feel how much he loves music and am so happy that he so expertly passes on this joy.

Richard makes classes really fun! He helped me learn more jazz tunes and was very patient in teaching me scales and how to improvise.
