I've been teaching now for 3 years and it has been a welcomed alternative to my former day job of working in a corporate environment in New York City.  I started informally teaching my friends as far back as 10 years ago and it has evolved into a serious passion of mine.  I have taught a wide range of students ranging from 10 to 50 years of age with an eclectic array of learning styles and musical preferences.

I have been teaching private music lessons for more than 30 years at my home and at my student's homes.  After I received my Master's degree I obtained my teaching certificate in vocal and instrumental music for grades K - 12.  I taught vocal music for the Jersey City Board of Education and later I taught strings for the  Kearny Board of Education.  I prepared students for auditions and recitals always encouraging them to practice and learn music theory and music history.

I believe in adhering to the needs of the student, be it ear training, sight reading, or visual learning. Music is a complex and beautiful journey.

Some people want to play jazz, some people want to perform, and some people just want to strum songs they can sing along too...it is all music, and my job is to help people express that. Read More

I am a passionate musician and fully certified instructor who always looks for and sees the best in everyone around me.

I have an open approach to teaching guitar, and encourage students to utilize knowledge obtained through my lessons in whatever context they prefer as opposed to gearing them towards a certain style of playing.
