My teaching experience dates back to my college days ,as I began teaching in professional music school full time 28 years ago and have been consistently teaching students in my home for the last 15 years. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key point .I like to emphasize for younger students ,as it tends to help student progress and gain passion for the instrument. I've also found that combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the instrument and motivate them to practice and continue to learn. Read More

My name is Jahnvi and I am currently earning my bachelor's degree in Music Education at New York University. I have been teaching private lessons for 3 years now, specializing in voice, piano, and music theory. I grew up singing musical theatre, pop, jazz, classical, and classical Hindustani music from India. My passion for singing soon developed into a passion for instrumental music as I picked up clarinet, flute, piano, and guitar. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I use a combination of established teaching methods, such as Alfred, Bastien, Hanon and Hal Leonard, as well as my own methods, which I've developed over the years. I also effectively utilize technology, such as Finale notation software to create special arrangements of songs for my students, YouTube videos for audio/visual support, and iPads. I have cultivated a warm demeanor and good sense of humor, which has helped my students remain engaged and in anticipation of the next lesson. Read More

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.
