Ivan F

Instruments: Piano Accordion Keyboard

I began my professional development in the Music College of Grodno, Belarus, where I studied under Sviatlana Keduk for four years (Graduated in 2010). I earned my Bachelors and Master's degree in classical music performance from Gnessin Russian Academy of Music, a highly respected and internationally recognised educational institution, where I studied under Prof. Yuri Sidorov (Graduated in 2015). As a concert performer on accordion and piano, I took part in various competitions and gave recitals performing (as a soloist and as an ensemble participant) on stages of some European countries, Belarus, Russia, Japan, USA and Canada.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Bass Guitar Synthesizer Orchestral Percussion Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

For beginning piano students, I often get them started with the Faber piano series, then incorporate music theory along with their song requests. For beginning fretted string students (guitar/bass/ukelele), I like to start with the Hal Leonard method book to get started with reading notation, so that we cover more than just tabs and chords. For drum/percussion students, I'll have them start with a combination of Syncopation by Ted Reed and Peter Erksine's Drumset Essentials Volume 1. Read More

Jonathan S

Instruments: Trumpet

As a teacher, I have taught masterclasses, clinics, and have given private and public instruction as part of after-school programs, camps, and private events. One of my main purposes in life is to play music for the sake of making music, and also to share music with people for the sake of their experience. As a performer, I play regularly throughout NYC with Grammy-nominated and winning artists such as Jimmy Greene, Eric Bergen, and the Afro-Latin Jazz Orchestra at clubs such as Birdland, the Iridium, Joe's Pub, Smalls, Smoke, and many more.

Camellia F

Instruments: Voice

For younger students, I believe learning basic music theory is a great foundation for understanding music and will overall help your musicality. Scales and warmups are extremely important in a new student as well, as they develop your voice and breathing in order to sing more challenging material in the future. I really enjoy the book "Singing Lessons for Little Singers" as it provides a great background on theory, breathing, and correct vocal placement. Read More

Instruments: Violin Viola Electric Violin Fiddle

I have over 15 years of teaching experience with students of all ages, from 3 year-olds to adults.  I am an upbeat and engaging teacher who focuses on proper form and technique, while maintaining the student's interest and encouraging creativity.  I teach a combination of Suzuki and traditional methods, catered to the needs of the individual. Many of my students have had leadership positions youth orchestras and have won regional competitions.   I feel that is very important for the music teacher to be an active and professional musician as well as a great teacher in order to inspire and to be a good role model for the students.

Nezih A

Instruments: Conga Latin Percussion Djembe

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
As a musician, I have had the privilege of performing in some of the world's most esteemed venues and traveling to far-flung corners of the globe. However, the accomplishment that brings me the greatest sense of pride is the opportunity to now play alongside musicians whom I once deeply admired - a truly humbling experience. Even more than this, I find immense satisfaction in the joy that my music brings to my listeners. Witnessing the glimmer in their eyes and the happiness on their faces during a performance is a reward unlike any other.

If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a Bachelor degree in Music Performance. I chose that because I was mainly interested becoming a performing musician. During my time at college I started to teach on the side and developed a passion for that as well.

When will I start to see results?
The time it takes to see results in instrument practice can vary depending on various factors, including your skill level, the amount of practice time you put in, the complexity of the music you are learning, and the quality of your practice. Generally, you may start to notice some improvement in your playing within a few weeks of consistent practice. However, significant progress often takes months or even years of dedicated effort. It's important to remember that progress is not always linear and that there may be periods of frustration or slow progress. Stay patient, stay committed, and enjoy the process of learning and growing as a musician.

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Percussion instruments are incredibly diverse, with a wide range of techniques and styles to master. The hardest thing to master on a percussion instrument can vary depending on the instrument and the individual's goals and strengths. However, some of the most challenging aspects of percussion performance include developing precise timing, control, and coordination, as well as mastering complex rhythms and techniques such as polyrhythms, improvisation, and sight-reading. Additionally, for percussionists who play multiple instruments, switching seamlessly between instruments and maintaining a consistent sound and feel can be challenging. Ultimately, the most challenging aspect of percussion performance is subjective and depends on the individual's unique strengths, weaknesses, and musical goals.

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
My first instrument was guitar, and I was quite passionate about it. Eventually I started playing in a bad where there was a hand percussionist, and it was the first time I ever had access to congas. The percussionist showed me some a basic groove, and I was sold! It was like love at first sight (touch?).

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
There are a few things to consider when determining if your child is ready for music lessons. Look for signs of interest and curiosity in music, such as singing along to songs or expressing a desire to play an instrument. Consider their age and attention span, as well as their ability to follow instructions and practice regularly. It's also important to have realistic expectations and understand that progress takes time and patience. Ultimately, it's up to you and your child to decide if they are ready and willing to commit to music lessons.

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.
