Here are just a few of the many teachers offering Music lessons in Morningside Heights . Whether you are looking for beginner guitar lessons for your kids, or are an adult wanting to improve your skills, the instructors in our network are ready to help you now!
Instruments: Piano
For beginning students who are children, I either utilize the "Robyn Method" (Keyboard Town); or the "Clark Method" (The Music Tree). Both methods provide emphasis on intervalic reading of notes, in addition to learning the specific names of all notes in both clefs. For adult beginners, I typically use "Play by Choice" or the Robyn Method. These methods help prepare the intermediate students for learning and playing the scales, including the Hannon exercises and playing the arpeggios. Read More
Instruments: Double Bass
I'm an enthusiastic instructor always seeking to discover what makes my students develop a personal connection to bass technique, which will further their love for making music. Jazz has always been my first love, although it was classical music that got me to play the double bass. In 2015 I graduated with a Master of Music degree in Double Bass Performance, at the Colburn Conservatory of Music in Los Angeles. As a classically trained bassist I've performed with Gustavo Dudamel, Valery Gergiev, Yuja Wang, the San Diego Symphony and many more! Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
With all students I put a lot of emphasis on leaning how to learn. I believe that by, for instance, teaching students how to make good use of their practice time (being productively self-critical) and processing information in an intuitive way, drastically expedites musical development and profoundly affect brain development. Much of this intuitive practice has to do with internalizing information such as music theory or recordings to the point that they become second nature much like a language. Read More
Instruments: Piano Music
For younger students I like the Alfreds method books . I also use the Piano Adventures books as well as Hal Leonard for adults. I like to combine what the student is looking for musically and build upon that while supplementing the method book. For younger students I tried to engage them by making the lesson fun. If an adult is interested in popular music I supplement the lesson with a method book that is geared toward popular music. Read More
Instruments: Piano Drums Orchestral Percussion Djembe
Like stated above, I strive to make my lessons fun and engaging above all else. Of course we need to also learn in the lesson, but I typically gage lesson plans around a student's areas of interest. Some people really enjoy learning from books and exercises, while others are more engaged learning songs and music that they listen to. Whatever your preferences are, we can tailor our lessons around them and find new ways to get you practicing and learning new material. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar Ukulele Double Bass
After Berklee I moved directly to NYC, I have performed extensively with my own band in Europe and the United States and also with other groups as a sideman in Central America, Africa, Europe and across the United States. I have studied and performed closely with many Grammy Award winning and renowned artists such as Danilo Perez, Wayne Shorter, Brian Blade (drummer for norah jones), Ben Stree, John Patitucci and many others.

Instruments: Drums
Nothing gives me more joy as a teacher than to have one of my students ask me a question. It sounds simple, but a student with questions is a student who wants to learn. I take this creativity and try to sculpt it into passion. I feel that a teachers job is to inspire, and point the student in the right direction of their goals, rather to be overbearing with a book and pencil. Read More
