Instruments: Piano Voice Violin Fiddle
Hello! My name is Julia and I'm an NYC-based actor/musician. I graduated in 2015 from Shenandoah Conservatory with a BFA in Acting. I'm also a proud National Theatre Institute and Moscow Art Theater alumna. In 2017, I completed my year and a half run with the Broadway National Tour of Once the Musical as the female swing, understudying: Girl (piano), Rza (violin) and Ex-Girlfriend (violin). Since then, I have toured nationally with The Rockin' Road to Dublin (Female Fiddler), Cirque Musica: Holiday Wishes (Flying Violinist) and Celtic Illusion (Canadian Tour) as the Fiddler. Read More
Instruments: Piano Drums Keyboard
If I'm teaching a beginning drummer or pianist my first goal is to help them realize that music is fun and the ability to play it is a gift. One of the most important concepts I teach my students is the ONE MONTH RULE. Multiple studies show that it takes at least a month to establish a new habit or routine. How does this relate to music? With younger students, I make sure to communicate with the parents about their practicing routine. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I am a young, passionate and committed piano performer and instructor. After earning my High School Diploma in Piano Performance with the highest score (100/100) and honors, I decided to move to the U.S. (which I have the citizenship from), to continue my performing and academic career. I am currently studying at Mannes School of Music under the tutelage of Jerome Rose, world-class pianist and instructor. I believe that a carreer in music is one of the most extraordinary things that someone can experience, living and feeling the beauty of this art every single day. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar
Sometimes the best way to learn is to just pick up the guitar and play it. I try to keep this in mind when engaging with a student. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Ukulele Music Keyboard Acoustic Guitar
I teach from my home studio. I teach private lessons and give my students my full attention which has proved to be the key to my continually increasing student enrollment and high retention rate. Music has been an integral part of my life, playing a major role in both my personal and professional life. I embrace the chance to be immersed in it, to share my enthusiasm for and expertise in the area of music education, promoting creative development and student performance skills. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I have professional experience in classical, musical theater, and jazz styles and am comfortable teaching at every level. With regard to teaching, I have experience in one-on-one and group settings in my home and at Bach to Rock music school. Ive been teaching private vocal lessons for over 10 years, both vocal training and piano.I believe students should have fun while learning and participate in music outside of the classroom, so I encourage them to participate in recitals, competitions, and even songwriting to stay motivated and celebrate their progress.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Set a specific time every day/week. Make sure the student eats a hour before the lesson. Put on your mind to "receive" mode and that there aren't any distractions in the room. If a section of a piece is problematic that we would work on that part first. A metronome can be helpful at first when practicing. If possible, internally sing the piece down and up again. The instructor can play one hand while the student plays the other. There are also pieces for 2 pianos. Practicing doesn't have to be boring at all. it can be a creator of fun, drama, adventure...
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If the child has a great deal of energy and it is focused on inner thought,
If the child has a little energy and it is focused on outer thought.
If the child can sign-a-long from DVD tracks, or if the child can dance to a children show, they are ready for lessons.
If the students stop crying when music is being played.
If the students bang on kitchen utensils.
they are ready for lessons.
If the student asks the family for piano at home,
they are ready for lessons.
If the student starts playing what he hears on the radio,
they are ready for lessons.
When will I start to see results?
A parent of slower IQ will find themselves seeing results in either a month or less.
A parent of medium IQ will take 2-3 weeks, while advanced students for 1-2 weeks.
This isn't set in stone, some of their grades fluctuate from (ex. third to second) and some rearrangement will probably occur. But by the end of the course all grades should normalize.
It is important that the children wants to be here, but excessive crying (for youngest class) lesson after lesson indicates a problem. I would gently ask the child "whats wrong", or "is the music giving you a problem?". Sometimes the personal touch can help students with bad attitude.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
When I was just starting my undergraduate I was very impressed by Charles Wuorinen, Pulitzer Prize and MacArthur award winner. He taught for New Jersey and commuted to New York if there was an engagement (he also has a home on West End Avenue).
Wuorinen's music is daring and electrifying to the listener. It also has moments of eerie calm where the instruments can stretch out and blend together. His pieces tend to be large with well-defined sections.
He also takes the older composer (Machaut) and arranged it in his style. Similar pieces are over his output.
