I encourage my students to learn at their own pace and push them when I see I can. I do not want to deter my students from liking what they do. I try to find the passion for a style of music and bring it out in my students while connecting that style to other styles to show the student that styles are idiosynchratic, but that they can also interchange with other styles.

I have been teaching professionally since 2010. I have worked for various music schools and have given lessons privately. I have experience in band coaching and teaching song writing and recording. I teach lessons out of my own recording studio, and I am comfortable working with students of all ages and skill levels. I consider myself to be great with beginners because I focus a lot on technique and how to make a clear clean sound on the instrument which is usually the first barrier a new student encounters.

I began teaching bass guitar about 25 years ago in Rockland County, NY in a small music school in New City. I've also taught privately in students homes and my home studio for many years. I've taught all styles of playing from classic rock to Johnny Cash, from Metallica to Motown, from The Beatles to Iron Maiden. Being well-versed in so many differnt styles of music opens up many possibilities and approaches to coming up with creative bass lines to compliment and construct a track, and keeping up ones playing at a high level of musicianship.

I had years of teaching experiences back home to Italy in Upright Electric bass and trumpet and I supported as a musicians many Berklee Faculties during their classes.

I always push to my students to be themselves and never imitate somebody else. Read More

I usually take the first lesson to gauge what the student wants from learning their specific instrument. If they want to learn a specific song, if they want to get better at a certain genre, or if they just want something to do as a hobby! I believe it is counterproductive to force a certain system or lesson series that the student is not interested in. I have tons of practice books, scales, and warmups that I like to use to help the student become more proficient and confident in their craft. Read More

For advanced players, I like to take a deep dive into an area that they have historically struggled with, whether it be composition, improvisation, using theory as a lense to better understand how their favorite music works, transcribing, and more. My comprehension of rhythmic theory and harmonic theory is very deep and intuitive. Let's take a really close look at an area where you've been struggling and help you to elevate your skill to a masterful level. Read More
