Piano Lessons in Franklin Lakes, NJ

Instruments: Piano Voice Flute Ukulele

I approach teaching on an individual basis, meaning it's important to me to know the goals, hopes, passions, and if applicable, the worries or insecurities the student is feeling. In a first lesson I identify something that is special and unique about each student, and build their technique from this place. I find this helps the difficult areas feel a little less challenging because they already have something they feel proud of when working through the discomfort of something new or intimidating.

I have been teaching music since I was a young high school student. Over the years, I have crafted a unique and open method to teaching music that makes students feel engaged with their practice. I started my journey in middle school on the saxophone, taking my studies to the esteemed William Paterson University in New Jersey. Over my years of study there and in New York, I connected with other instruments I played such as the flute, piano, and guitar, and taught each of them along the way. Read More

Instruments: Piano Drums Synthesizer Orchestral Percussion Keyboard

I tailor each lesson to the student; my goal is to find the best way to bring the instrument to the student (as opposed to forcing the student to the instrument). For beginners, we can learn basic beats, basic fills, learn the fundamentals of technique and how to read music. If possible I like to play along on drums or piano to get the feeling of playing with other people. Read More

My name is Gregg, I like to define music as aural changes over time, a change people listen to regardless of their personal styles. The teaching of music is then a transmittal of a new language with all its nuances. It is these changes that first attracted me to music. I really started my career in music at a concert for a whole high school. I "reached the wall" and went over it, all my playing seemed effortless and still in sync with the rest of that venue.

Half musician and half computer programmer, I graduated from Southern Connecticut State University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Music Theory and Composition.

I develop my own software, synthesizers, and tools to assist me in my musical journey, and hopefully yours. Read More
