Instruments: Piano, Music

I am a patient and empathetic teacher who puts students' needs first instead of enforcing my ideas on them. I am currently completing my PhD in Music Theory and Composition at the University of Pittsburgh, where I just defended my dissertation for graduation. I did my Masters at Manhattan School of Music in Music Composition. Prior to my PhD studies, I also taught piano and music theory at Brooklyn Musical Arts. Read More

Instruments: Voice, Music

First, I will check the students capabilities and voice, no matter what your age is, to know what you can do or what you cant do YET!

Instruments: Piano, Clarinet, Organ, Music, Keyboard

For beginning students who are children, I typically start with John Thompson's Method. Once the student has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate for their first recital performance.

Depending on whether it is piano, organ, or clarinet changes methodology for the student. Read More

Instruments: Guitar, Drums, Bass Guitar, Music, Electric Guitar, Acoustic Guitar

I began teaching guitar in high school to middle school students and continued teaching children and adults throughout college.

Whether it’s finding music theory in Taylor Swift song, or learning the guitar neck through a Beatles solo, I always find a way to teach through interests that the students have rather than force a cookie cutter approach.
