Introduction: Have you always wanted to learn to play the piano but havent found the right teacher? I help students set musical goals and instruct them on how to achieve them. I have enabled many students to pass their yearly NYSSMA exams when in the past, they have failed. Motivation is key when learning an instrument, which is why I work with you to achieve your goals, and work on the pieces and songs that you want.
I have 10 years of experience teaching students ranging from four years old to 87! You can come to my studio in Manhattan, or I can travel to you! I currently teach 15 children between the ages of three and nine, providing them with a fun and safe environment. Piano should never feel like work, but instead a fun game that challenges them. I will help develop discipline, memory skills, different approaches to problem solving, and concentration.
I received a masters in piano performance from Arizona State University, and have a concentration in classical.
With my help, you can expect to learn the following:
* Read music
* Understand music theory/ear training - perfect pitch meaning playing songs that you hear on the radio by ear
* Preparation for live performances, recitals, and competitions
* Technique (relaxation, improving finger speed, creating bigger sound and broader range of dynamic with intonation, accuracy, and energy focus)
* Learn to play and sing all of your favorite songs (the ability to sing while playing is a necessary skill)
With my 10 years of experience, I have learned to make piano fun for everyone and a tool in your success. Contact me today for a free meeting!
