My name is Jahnvi and I am currently earning my bachelor's degree in Music Education at New York University. I have been teaching private lessons for 3 years now, specializing in voice, piano, and music theory. I grew up singing musical theatre, pop, jazz, classical, and classical Hindustani music from India. My passion for singing soon developed into a passion for instrumental music as I picked up clarinet, flute, piano, and guitar. Read More

Students have to listen to the sound they are making - whether these are scales or the repertoire. They will become great pianists if their concentration is great. There is no miracle in piano playing. it is a precise and exact art much like carving. All students know - "we have to practice." That is easy - anybody can practice. Laziness is not a problem any more. Lack of interest, however, can be a huge problem, and it arises because students do not know HOW to practice. Read More

I believe strongly in approaching each student with a blank slate. This means that, before even considering a workbook or a songbook, I take the time to learn from my student about what makes him or her most excited about music. If I find out that my student loves the theme song from La La Land, we're going to learn that! If he or she wants to understand how it's possible for a major scale and a natural minor scale to share the exact same notes, then we'll explore it, not only theoretically, but practically.

For beginning students, I start with Michael Aaron and Michael Aaron Music Theory books. The beginner students really enjoy these theory books! I also incorporate Fabers Music Adventures into the lessons. As the student progresses, I begin to introduce pieces appropriate for their levels and tastes. Each student learns and progresses individually and I take that into account when suggesting repertoire for them. One student may want a classical piece while another student may want a song by Bruno Mars. Read More

I am a pianist, music copyist, arranger, composer and instructor.

I was taken under piano apprenticeship by my mentor, the renowned modernist pianist Edmund Niemann. With him I truly understood what it means to have a great piano teacher. Read More
