Sunbin K

Instruments: Piano Organ Synthesizer

I am a very, very patient teacher, and have a particular affinity for shy and otherwise withdrawn students. I share some of those attributes, so I know instinctively how to work with them. For some of us, music becomes our native language, and it affords entry into the more difficult worlds of social interacton. For more advanced students, I can offer many years' worth of advice on how to prepare for auditions to music academies, conservatories and summer festivals. Read More

Christopher D

Instruments: Piano Violin Cello Viola Electric Violin Fiddle

I began playing violin at the age of 12. Over the years, I developed my skills further by joining my local community orchestra and getting lessons from renowned instructor pedagogues. I received my Bachelor's degree in Music Education at the State University of New York at Fredonia in 2017, where I performed regularly with the Symphonic and Chamber Orchestra, and learned about how to teach students both individually and in a school setting.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I have always found great joy in student success. I have dedicated my career to the cultivation of my teaching style and methods. I have coached students for auditions into the Manhattan School of Music Pre-College division among other prestigious honors. I find that seeing the joy my students take in performing their hard work has come to define my approach. I center teaching on a goal oriented system that allows students to make progress toward small and large goals. Read More

Corazon H

Instruments: Piano

My method of teaching attunes to the student needs, and flexible when it comes to pieces but I always try to integrate classical music for I believe that it is basic foundation in piano playing. Sometimes I let the student choose any music she likes to learn and try  to modify accordingly to the student's level. Read More

Dan B

Instruments: Piano

I use anything and everything. Repertoire is very important and we can have fun with that. I am laid back yet demanding. When I see a strength I will encourage it, when I see a weakness (rhythm, reading, memory) I will work tirelessly od fixing it. I usually teach weekly lessons but occesionally the situation calls for bi weekly or twice weekly Read More

Joshua B

Instruments: Piano

My teaching experience has been quite varied, with ample experience teaching private students and group classes of all ages and ability levels. I have taught privately for more than 10 years, and have always encouraged a supportive, compassionate, and engaging learning environment. Most recently, I was awarded a Teaching Fellowship at the Mannes School of Music, where I was fortunate to be a professor of piano for undergraduate music majors. I have also held a teaching residency with the New York Philharmonic. Read More

Timothy C

Instruments: Piano Keyboard

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
There are 3 main ideas to practicing. The first is to maintain a consistent warmup routine, that is performed daily. The second, is to make sure practice is done at least 30 minutes a day, 5 days a week. Even if this consists solely of warmups, that is a win for the week. I believe in the student starting with what is doable, and then taking on anything additional as long as the stability of daily practice is maintained. I understand that this is a bit of an intimidating requirement; however, working up to the goal of practicing 5 days per week, is completely doable and also up to the student to rate themselves on. I may step in from time to time to keep track of what's going on, but this is only to keep the student involved in their own self-initiated practicing.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child has a passion to learn music, and has taken initiative to start to do something musical, that is a great place to be coming from. Progress each week is attained as the student is able to channel that spark into practice. The child should also have an inquisitive nature, or should be encouraged to develop one throughout the process of lessons. It's not easy to know if a young child is a "piano personality" for the long term, but in the meantime, I try to make thing fun for the student.

When will I start to see results?
Adult players will instantly be trained in a ground-up technique for playing jazz standards. One may see their way to playing a jazz standard from start to finish after the first lesson! We build upon concepts to keep the student learning something new on every lesson. I believe that development will happen before one knows it-- they will be able to use their playing to enrich their own life, and will have plenty of musical concepts to digest and enjoy as they bring them success in their studies. After a few months, a student should be confident of a change. While I will do my best to give the student an idea of whether or not they are doing enough, I believe that at the end of the day, the student needs to make sure they are progressing from lesson to lesson, and then re-evaluate their progress as if becomes suitable. I expect that a student will be coming every week, so that the past week's concepts are further cemented, and can be developed one step further with every session. If a student doesn't have time to practice, it's recommended that they still attend the next session. Why is this?? Because part of the process is having some inspiration. This is my job, and I do it with great passion, so please consider that this will be available for you if taking lessons.

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.
