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
Instruments: Piano
I have been teaching piano for 17 years and have worked with a wide variety of students across many age groups and ability levels. My experience includes teaching young beginners, school-age children, teens, adult beginners, and older adults returning to music later in life. I have taught students with different learning styles, attention spans, and goals, adapting my approach to meet each students needs. In addition to teaching, I have experience performing and playing in church environments, which helped shape my understanding of music as both a personal and shared experience. Read More

Hello! While playing music is one of my favorite thing in the world, it doesn't seem to compare to teaching others how to make music. I'm a University of Michigan student who loves producing and jamming out. I started my musical career at age 10 with the cello, but pretty quickly changed to the piano. My formal education is lacking, but I've spent the last 12 years learning theory and performance through books, articles, and lots and lots of trial and error. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I like to use "Piano Adventures by Faber". Also I teach music theory and ear training. My students musical interests are important to me. I try to find materials that they will enjoy playing. Children must be thought not what to think but how to think. I ask my students to try to find the answer themselves not always giving them the answer. Read More

Hello future students! I much enjoy sharing my experience as a creative musician to my students whether they are 5 or 55, beginner or advanced. I am a patient teacher and do my best to encourage each student to find themselves as unique learners (musicians) unto themselves. I graduated from Columbia College Chicago in 2002 with a BA focus on Music Composition. While recently living in NYC, I formed a 12-member saxophone orchestra, composed and recorded two symphonies, performed and recorded with the late Glenn Branca's 100 Guitar Ensemble, and provided live Sound Design for renowned poetess Anne Carson.

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.

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My own father handed me a guitar when I was 8 years old and taught me my first chords -- this set me up for a lifetime of passionate musicianship and music study. I appreciated the fact that my father never pushed me, but only taught me what I wanted and needed to learn at the time. I have taken this principle with me into my own instruction style, where I guide the student based on their own personal interests and passions, never trying to force anything that they don't honestly care about.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most proud of the hundreds of compositions I've written, many of which haven't been recorded, many of which have -- when listening to them, I realize how important my childhood musical instruction was to my future as a player -- all of the chord voicings and musical styles I learned have come into play as I've traveled along this journey as a composer and performer. It makes me proud to know that I've shaped so many experiences with my abilities!
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I chose guitar as my primary instrument because it feels very intimate to me, the way I can hold it in my lap and in my arms, and I can feel it resonating on my tummy as the strings buzz while I play -- it's a very deep connection! Also, it's easy to travel with, I can usually take a guitar anywhere, which is great because I never know when there's going to be an opportunity for me to play!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child shows any interest in music, a particular musical instrument, or explicitly states that they want to learn, it is time for them to start! It's easy for a child to pick up an instrument, as their brains are still in a period of extraordinary expansion and development -- learning an instrument will help them not only become musicians, but will also teach them the essential virtues of patience, practice, and commitment, setting them up for a more successful adulthood!
When will I start to see results?
Results depend on how often a student practices -- if they don't practice, you may never see results. However, if they practice for at least a half an hour every day, results can start to be seen within a week or two! This development can be extremely exciting for a new student and their loved ones, as the fruit of their labor will show in amazing and inspiring ways, which will make them want to continue to learn and grow!
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
To practice effectively, I believe musicians must set a daily practice schedule, whether it is 30 minutes or 4 hours -- this daily commitment will greatly improve results, growth and fluency on our instrument. I also believe practice must involve rudiments (practicing chord structures, scales, etc.), but also must be balanced a period of "freestyle" playing, where we allow our imaginations to guide us freely; this deepens our intimacy with the instrument and develops our own personal style!
