Music Lessons in Ewing, NJ

Instruments: Piano Music

For the past decade, I dedicated myself to teaching at the Music Academy in Krakow, where I instructed over 200 students each year. Additionally, I started offering part-time private lessons and have been regularly teaching in my home studio for the last five years. I emphasize the importance of maintaining a consistent practice schedule for younger students, as it significantly aids their progress and fosters a love for the instrument. I also believe that blending classical and contemporary music enhances students' enjoyment and motivation to practice and learn. Read More

I've been a private lesson teacher since 1997 and have taught in 7 school districts across the Southeastern PA/Southern NJ area since 1999. My ensembles have consistently won State, Regional and National Championships over this time and my students have become members of elite performing ensembles like the Carolina Crown Drum and Bugle Corps (Fort Mill, South Carolina) and Miami, Florida's New World Symphony. While school level instruction is a critical element of student development, private lessons offer the individual attention not available to students taught in large groups, while yielding results of greater quality at a faster pace.

My teaching style is patient, thorough, and persistent. For beginning students I start with a simple five note scale, how to hold or sit with the instrument, and an easy tune such as mary had a little lamb or happy birthday; Some students get that in the first lesson and some take a couple weeks everyone has their own process. I like to students to work with method or etude books and have a folder or music notation notebook to keep notes and lessons, organization is up to the student. Read More
