Vincent is a talented musician and a patient and motivating instructor. My son is 10 years old and has been taking lessons for the past 8 months and he LOVES his lessons and looks forward to them. Vincent has a bachelor's degree in music ed, but even more important, he has a true natural gift for teaching. We are so pleased with the quality of instruction my son is getting and he is also very kind and personable. What a great mentor! Great experience!

He is very professional; hes always prepared to answer questions and directs students to the right way. He is always very creative; because he teaches my high school-aged brother, but also me a twenty-something professional. His outside the box thinking taught me the piano. I was expecting to get taught the piano through a step by step process. But he was able to teach me the fundamentals and songs within a month of training. He was able to take in account my age and create a lesson plan.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I offer 30, 45 and 60 minute lessons. Pay is based on the duration of the lesson and paid monthly. Contact me for further details on pricing.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
The first lesson is a trial lesson. Typically this means that I ask about what the student has played before (if anything) and have them play a short piece of music. Based on their playing ability, I develop a plan that suits the students' needs. If they haven't played anything at all, I will show the student how to get a good sound and a few notes to play a simple folk song.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I currently have a B. A. in Music Education from West Chester University and have been private teaching for 10+ years. I've been playing/studying the saxophone for 26 years, the piano for 10 years and the clarinet for 7 years. I'm currently teaching students on the instruments listed above and know multiple ways to adjust my teaching based on the students needs.
