Music Lessons in East Windsor, CT

Instruments: Piano

When I finish teaching a lesson, I often feel like I've either learned something new or have been reminded of something fundamental about music. For example, it's very good for the health of my own piano technique to be able to explain basic piano technique to someone else. I think it's this "selfish" element of teaching that most characterizes my approach to private lessons--I try to treat every lesson as an opportunity for my personal growth as well as theirs, and I try to do this by communicating a genuine passion for music.

For me, the best part of teaching is helping students grow, and helping them realize their musical abilities and self-reliance. I feel that my role as a teacher is to present new information or challenges, and aid the student in learning how to address those challenges on their own. I find that this encourages the students to want to learn more and more to expand their own musical and technical literacy, and it makes them much more prepared for individual practice, ensemble playing, and future challenges where they have to rely on themselves.

I am always highly-organized, high-energy, clear, well-spoken, systematic, detail-oriented, engaging, funny, entertaining and helpful. For students who desire a more relaxed and/or slow-moving approach, I am happy to oblige. For students who desire a faster-paced and/or more intense style of teaching, I am also happy to oblige. In all cases, I believe in tailoring my teaching style to the student's age, ability level, personality, learning style, number of years of lessons so far, other preferences, etc. Read More

I teach strictly by the John Thompson Book Series, Grade 1, Grade 2, and Advanced level. I also make it a goal for the student to learn one major classical piece throughout the course of instruction: "Fur Elise" by Beethoven, or "Moonlight Sonata: 1st Movement" by Beethoven. You will learn how to sight-read and also how to notate. If you want learn how to write your music I can help with that too. Read More

Instruments: Voice

My love of teaching started when I was a counselor at a musical summer enrichment program back in 2020. I got to work with so many young performers with varying skill levels and aided them in discovering their voice and confidence. Since then, I have begun my own private vocal coaching business and became a singing/musical theatre teacher at All Stars Dance Center in Westfield, MA. I love the look on my students faces they hit that high note or finish a difficult song that theyve worked so hard on! Read More
