Introduction: NOW TEACHING REMOTELY EVERYWHERE and LIVE in NYC. Short excerpts from my website testimonials- "Simply put, Jonathan is the best." "I have thoroughly enjoyed my lessons with him!" "He’s exceptionally talented and patient - a rare combination." "Jonathan can teach (and play) any style." "And, perhaps most important, he does it with a glint in his eye, a smile on his face, and a joke almost always ready.” "Jonathan is a wonderful teacher." "Thanks, Jonathan! Besides being a fantastic musician, you know how to inspire and teach!" "Jonathan is the perfect teacher for young and old alike." "Jonathan is a fabulous teacher." "Is there nothing he can’t do? I have put Jonathan to the test!" "He’s a very nice guy with a great sense of humor that makes the piano lessons even more enjoyable, not to mention productive." "Jonathan can play anything and more than that, can teach anything! Jonathan respects his students and teaches to their ability." "I couldn’t imagine a better piano teacher for my, or anyone’s child." "Taking lessons with Jonathan has been a blast." "You don’t just teach, you inspire, and I knew that’s what would happen.” “It’s hard to imagine doing better than Jonathan.” “Jonathan has been an enthusiastic and engaging teacher who goes out of his way to tailor his lessons to the needs of the kids.” “Jonathan Segal is not only a piano teacher, he is also an accomplished performer.” “The lesson is enjoyable to him and that’s because of Jonathan’s warm and fun personality." Piano Lessons from a solid Pro I tailor my lessons to the student's needs. Those needs might include: Starting at the very beginning, dusting off some old skills, sharpening your professional skills, improvisation, sight-reading, really useful ear-training, technique (can you control the piano?), learning to play by ear that song that you heard on your smart phone, understanding chords, voicings, modes, structure, what is the circle of fifths and why should I care?, learning to accompany yourself when you sing and coming up with a version of the song that's much better than the sheet music, classical, jazz, pop, theater, rock, the whole musical universe. I'm a pianist, but also a singer and songwriter, so I understand how to help you in those related areas. So if you're ready to jump in the musical pool, I'm ready to show you around. Jonathan Segal

Simply put, Jonathan is the best. I decided to start taking piano lessons for the first time at age 40 (!), and couldn't be happier to have Jonathan as my teacher. He has a mastery of the piano so that he can teach all different types of music - whatever you are looking to learn. He is patient and explains things clearly. I have learned so much already! Most importantly, Jonathan has a great personality and the lessons are FUN. I look forward to going every week. Jonathan is worth every penny. My only regret is that I didn't find him sooner!

It’s easy to find a piano teacher these days if all you are looking for is someone that can keep you motivated and help you improve you technique. As a singer/songwriter and performer I needed much more than that. Jonathan Segal is not only a piano teacher he is also an accomplished performer. Jonathan’s experience as a vocalist, pianist and entertainer allowed him to critique my current level of performance and make concrete suggestions that have had solid impact on my performance. Jonathan’s coaching continues to enhance my skill level and has helped me develop a much more creative and productive practice routine. I highly recommend Jonathan Segal as a piano teacher and performance coach.

Jonathan has taught piano to three of my four children and to impossible-to-teach-anything-at-all-to me. Not only do I now play Beethoven better than Melvin, the Shitzu down the block, in spite of my incapacity to practice more than once a month, but my children have developed both a competency at the piano and a love for and comprehension of music that I can only envy. Jonathan is a pleasure to be around, my children (and I) adore him, he makes the learning fun and exciting, and I have watched my children go on to be life-long music lovers largely because of his talents as a teacher. It's hard to imagine doing better than Jonathan. If I could I'd give him SIX stars!! Abby D.

Jonathan Segal is not only an extremely talented pianist but also a very skilled and insightful teacher of piano whether classical, jazz, or pop. He is a very nice guy with a great sense of humor that makes the piano lessons even more enjoyable -- not to mention more productive ! I highly recommend him. I am very glad to have found Jonathan as an instructor for studying piano.

We were looking for a Jazz piano teacher for our teenage daughter. How lucky we were to have found Joanthan Segal! He's exceptionally talented and patient - a rare combination. Our daughter has been going to him for weekly private lessons since 2015 and is very happy with his instructions. She looks forward to her time with Jonathan every week and can't wait to get home and practice what they worked on! I highly recommend Jonathan to anyone seeking quality piano lessons.
