Alkistis Piano Studio

Science has proven that all humans posses the ability to be musical and learn to play an instrument regardless of talent. I am a strong believer that all children can benefit from music lessons and always try to tailor the lesson to each student's individual needs. Whether you want to play for fun or pursue music professionally I can adapt and change the lesson to accommodate my students. I am extremely patient and I have extensive training on how to work with children. Unlike most piano instructors I have extensive training and knowledge in piano pedagogy which gives me the necessary skills to communicate complex ideas to young minds. I hold a Bachelors in Music Education from Brooklyn College and currently working on Masters in Music Education (M.M.E in Choral Pedagogy) from Westminster Choir College. I don't believe that one size fits all therefore I do not use a particular method of teaching piano because each child is different therefore I adapt to the uniqueness of the individual. I consider myself as a facilitator that enables students to find the musically that already exists inside of them. Being a teacher is one of the hardest and most demanding jobs in this world, but it happens to be the most rewarding. Seeing the transformation of a child of any level and seeing the confidence and satisfaction that only can be felt when making music is one of the best things about this job.
