Music Lessons in East Aurora, NY

Instruments: Piano Keyboard

For the past 5 years I have taught 100+ students from a wide range of ages (5-60+). I have taught subjects such as Piano, Composition, Songwriting, Music Theory, Ear Training, Aural Skills, Music History, and Film Music, among others. I have a strong background in all these subjects, and have found that integrating different styles and types of musical knowledge into the lessons helps make your learning engaging and motivating. I am a patient and supportive teacher who tailors his instruction to each student's experience, age, and needs. Read More

My passion is music and spreading that joy to others. Each student is different and special. I find ways to tap into the potential of all students (of any age), and assist them in goal setting, using music as a tool in many ways, and building the confidence to continue adding music- performance or not- into their lives. I took a very non-traditional path into music as a career, but I love guiding others in their musical pursuits from a viewpoint of someone who made missteps along my journey, and strive to be the best musician and teacher I can be.
