Hi. My name is Jesse and I am a drummer. I graduated from Bennington college in 2008 with a bachelor’s degree in liberal arts with a concentration in music, after which I moved to New York City to study jazz drums with some of the most gifted and creative musicians in the world. I’ve travelled the world playing music professionally in a variety of styles, in over 70 different countries across every (habitable) continent! Read More

Every stage is different. With beginners, you want them to learn the notes first, then the chords, the harder chords..etc. With intermediate players, you can begin teaching them songs and giving them songs to work on. Advanced players is all about finding the right tone and the right sounds, most likely helping by providing guitar work with them. It all depends on the student! But I know that for children, you start with the basics and work your way up! Read More
Instruments: Piano Organ Music
Young children get excited about games and movements easily, thus, I will include a lot of music interactive activities and games in my lesson to motivate their music learning. Furthermore, I believe that teaching must match to the students learning style, not learning match to the teachers teaching style. Therefore, teaching style, curriculum, and approach should be flexible, varied, and individual. I will observe and discover my students learning style and ability in the first lesson, then I will design a tailor-made curriculum for him/her. Read More

Just as every player has their own musical personality and voice, so too does every lesson that Nicholas gives. In a supportive, patient environment, every lesson is custom tailored to the student. Being musical is inherent to being human, so when a students’ musical abilities fail to progress, it is the teaching method that has failed, not the student. While my educational background allows me to offer my students a high level of instruction in instrumental technique, my first priority with every student is to foster their love and understanding of music through playing their instrument.

I believe everyone has a song in their heart, and I take it upon myself to give them the tools to make it come to life. Every student needs to learn the basic fundamentals of music theory, ear training, rhythm and dexterity. However, experience has shown me how differently people learn, so I zone in on what works best for the student and customize lessons towards their own goals and strengths. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I began teaching when I started studying with Berklee. Admittedly, I wasn't entirely sure how to take on such a job, but soon discovered that it was something that came naturally to me, and something I enjoyed doing. I have taught students of varying levels, from a complete beginner unable to read any music, to someone who was able to sightread proficiently. I like to take the time to know what my student's goals are, and help them work towards achieving them. Read More

When I start out with a new student I like to see what kind of learning works best for them. Are they a visual, audio or tactical learner? from there I modify each lesson for each individual student. I make sure my lessons are a very positive experience with no criticism. I teach with charts, tablature and standard notation. My primary method of teaching is to have my students study from my own books, in addition to publications by Mel Bay and Hal Leonard. Read More

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Anyone at any part in their musical journey is ready to start lessons whether you're a complete beginner or a professional. Any one at any age with a passion for music is ready to begin working with a teacher. It's better to start your children with a teacher then to have them be self taught and eventually start taking lessons, however everyone at every level in their musicianship will benefit from working with a teacher.
When will I start to see results?
Most people aren't able to tell how and when you're progressing but as a teacher I can say that you are always making progress even if the results aren't obvious to yourself. I think depending on where you are in your musical journey the progress you see when you start working with a teacher can be immediate and linear growth, however a lot of people who are self taught and seek a teacher after being self taught might come to find you actually regress a bit due to having to back track to fix bad habits or implement necessary technique you didn't on your own. While this feels like negative results your still making progress towards the penultimate goal of mastery. Having a teacher will not only help make sure you're making consistent progress but we'll also be there to celebrate the progress you don't always recognize when teaching yourself as well as fixing habits and finding solutions that would take years longer on your own.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I had really great connections with all my music teachers in middle and high school, especially with my middle and high school choir teachers which is definitely what inspired me to be a teacher. I saw what they did everyday and thought to myself how fun it would be to be in their shoes teaching music all day. I think the way they inspired me more so in high school was as a teachers assistant I got to see the nuance of teaching and how you get to share a part of yourself with others through music. I was inspired by how much my teachers loved what they did and put so much time and effort into sharing music with us.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
My biggest advice to practicing effectively is to have a consistent practice routine that you take full advantage of. Even when doing the repetitive "easy" stuff like warm ups and exercises, giving it your full focus and effort is the fastest way to make progress in your solo repertoire, leading to your improvement of skill. Practicing everyday for a short period of time will do you more good than practicing for a long period of time less frequently, like 1-2 days a week. 15 minutes a day minimum for children and 30 minutes a day minimum for adults is what I recommend and make every minute of your practice count. I like to think of my practice routine as 20% warm ups and exercises, 20% sight reading and literacy training, and 60% repertoire practice.
