Piano Lessons in Medfield, MA

Instruments: Piano

Music pleases our ears, so, many people would think to train their ears only; however, no one will ever play music well if ear is the only tool. Listening, visualising and touching should get involved at the same time. This is what I learned in my lessons. It is proved to be a helpful and efficient way of learning music, and I wish my student will eventually understand it. In order to achieve it, ear training, sight reading and singing will be applied.

Of course, every student is different, and an integral part of my philosophy involves getting to know each student so that I may learn their creative preferences, strengths, and weaknessness. I do not shy away from books, I do indeed enjoy working out of the Hal Leonard collection because I appreciate the step by step structure. This may apply less to guitar, however, if the student's primary ambitions are to learn songs by Green Day or The Beatles, etc. Read More

I am a big fan of planned practicing and it is especially important with younger students. I find that when students follow my exact practice instructions they play their pieces successfully!

I always set realistic goals so practicing never feels tedious or overwhelming. Read More

It is very important that the student can enjoy playing while learning music. I assign long and short pieces, so students can mark their progress and accomplishments. I ease the challenge of learning new pieces through helping them to practice properly from the start. I instill good listening in the sound they play and how they play. Students are initiated into the world of motifs, patterns, phrasings and musical structures for musical appreciation. Read More
