Instruments: Piano Drums Synthesizer Mallet Percussion Conga Latin Percussion Music Keyboard Djembe
I started teaching during my days at the Conservatory, as it was required in the study program. I graduated as a performer and educator in classical and Afro-Cuban percussion, with the piano as a complementary instrument. Teaching has always been an important and constant part of my career, since I have always viewed teaching as a learning tool. I came to realize that the process of constantly finding new ways to make the students understand and interiorize something, was of great benefit to myself. Read More

My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began teaching private lessons part time and have been teaching since. Today I am a music teacher at David Posnack Jewish Day School and the drum instructor at Piper High School. Since becoming the drum instructor at Piper High School we have received superior ratings four years in a row. I have also had the privilege to travel throughout the USA as a performing musician appearing on shows such as the 700 Club, BET Gospel, Hezekiah Walker and much more. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began teaching at a music summer camp 3 years ago. Since then, I have been teaching private students. I encourage regular practice sessions. This is one of the key points I like to emphasize for beginners especially, as it tends to help the student progress, gain a passion for the instrument, and build discipline. I've also found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy music, motivate them to practice and continue to learn. Read More

Teaching is one of the most rewarding careers there can be! As I have stated before I love sharing my knowledge for music and I think its important to communicate with my students and observe them to see how they approach the learning. I like to personally adjust and tailor each session to the student and their level so that they can learn at their own pace. Keeping a positive attitude during the session is a must and it keeps the student engaged and happy while also learning! Read More

I like to use a combination of books from different authors and also incorporate my own lessons as well. I keep the lessons fun and engaging with a variety of material that I think is suitable. I play music games with my young students, teach their favorite songs, while showing them all the necessary fundamentals that are required for becoming a great musician. Read More

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Technique! That is the ability to play a note with the correct attack, duration, phrasing and dynamics that allow a note to sing. Knowing when to play and when not to play especially in jazz or improvised music.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I recommend practicing for 30 minutes a day. It is more effective for some people to practice at two 15 minutes intervals a day. It is my experience that it is more effective to practice everyday than to practice for hours to " cram" for the test.
When will I start to see results?
I've seen results within a few weeks. I've asked parents to hang in for 6 months gently encouraging the student. If the student continues to complain about lessons or refuses to practice it might be time to move on. As a caveat I've never heard anyone say they were happy about giving up lessons. I've heard people say they wish they continues or stayed with it.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I always liked guitar. I played the piano and the idea of playing with 8 fingers and six strings with 23 frets was interesting to me. I thought electric guitars looked cool.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I like the John Thompson series. The pages are not cluttered with superfluous pictures. I can expand on the lessons and use my own techniques and philosophy to teach.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Living off grid in the wilderness as a hermit growing my food and playing guitar on the porch. My wife has terms and conditions that prevent me from doing this so music it is.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I have successful students. I would have to ask their permission to drop their names here. They have played with world renowned bands and become wanted side men.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Not a teacher. Its a long story but I knew a guy about 15 years older than me who showed me how to play jazz chords. I thanked him until today.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
The piano was always there. I wanted to play guitar, but Mom and Dad insisted on piano and I'm glad they did. Piano opens up all other instruments. I took up guitar as an adult. I have a friend who is a great guitar player, he says piano is order and guitar is chaos!
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
writing and composing radio and TV jingles. I'm also proud of the students I've had that went on to be professionals. Playing with Bo Diddly was a kick.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
I f they ask or respond to your question positively. I think 6 years old is a good time to start. I ask the parent if their child does well in school. Kids are funny I've seen excetions to all the rules!
