Instruments: Piano
I have an innate desire to share knowledge. I like to imagine my passion for teaching for my students as a development section in a symphony: Ever expansive! I started teaching piano in the Hoff-Barthelson Music School in the Scarsdale, NY community. Going further I taught and tutored piano and music theory to fellow adults in my alma mater: Manhattanville College. Currently I am the music instructor for the White Plains Youth Bureau STEAM Academy. Read More

I learned some chords on Guitar from my hippy uncle. After a few weeks, I started teaching him, and he is 60 years old. Point is, he would listen to songs on the radio like songs from The Beatles and then teach me them. I would hear the chords and realize that he might be playing a similar chord, but not the exact chord. I would play the chord for him and then he would be impressed. Read More

Instruments: Piano Trumpet
I have been a professional teacher and musician for 30 years. As a young man I traveled all around the world on cruise ships playing shows. Then, I aggressively pursued a free-lance career as a jazz trumpeter in New York City. I have always taught private lessons and I enjoy the challenge of reaching the student to inspire them to improve. Hopefully it will be fun as well. I have a proven method for teaching beginning piano students and I have extensive experience teaching the trumpet as well. Read More
Instruments: Piano Organ
I hold two degrees in music from Montclair State College, a BA and an MA in music. My primary instrument was piano and my secondary was violin. I studied piano with Murray Present, pupil of Josef and Rosinna Lhevinne at Julliard, working with him for both degrees and thereafter. My violin instructor was Dr. Jerome Landsman, member of the first Heifetz Master Class at the University of Southern California at Berklee. Read More

Whether its to develop musicality or to hone individual's instrument techniques, I believe that each students requires different goals to achieve specific results. In 2016, I graduated from Berklee College of Music with a Bachelor of Music degree in Contemporary Writing and Production. Prior to being a full time professional record producer in Manhattan, I have been performing and recording globally as a soloist, in orchestra, and lead my jazz trio. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
My advice about practicing effectively is to define the amount of time you can devote to practice, limit the scope of what you wish to work on in that practice session (i.e., I can practice 1 hour and I want to work on 4 pieces), so I'll devote 15 minutes' practice time to each piece/song I'll work on. Listen to a recording of the song/piece (if possible), play or sing it through to understand where I need to improve, then zero in on the most problematic area to repair). Make a mental or physical note of it. Practice those same pieces/songs each day, reviewing the work of the previous day and teaching myself to play or sing another section better than before. Once I learn a passage well, duplicate this small victory in this small section 3 times, but not necessarily 3 times in a row!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If you are ready to devote time to sitting with your child each day for the joy and discipline of practice time, then your child is most likely ready to start lessons:
If he or she has been exposed to music since birth or early childhood and sees; hears his or her parents engaging in things musical (humming along with a song, playing recordings, attending concerts, etc), then he/she, is most likely ready to share this joy and delve into the knowledge behind the simple enjoyment of music. Parents set the tone.
When will I start to see results?
You will see results as early as the first week if you engage in daily consistent practice. All this depends on your concentration, motivation and consistent application of effort towards a pre-determined short term goal. The more ambitious the goal, the more detailed shorter-term objectives and mile stones need to be planned out on a time line, and daily practice adhered to assiduously towards these milestones. Realize that life takes many twists and turns and your desire for yourself or for your child may have been one thing in May, but may change dramatically in December, when the path of your own life's priorities shift.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
The first teacher I studied with as a child was (or seemed to me at the time), an elderly woman with a kind disposition. I adored her and looked forward to lessons each week not just because she served milk and cookies at the lessons, but because the treasures she taught me were tidbits I shared with my music loving parents who appreciated every thing I shared with them. Later, when we immigrated to this country, I studied with both the matriarch and patriarch of a musical family, who were fun loving, creative and very witty. They spread both discipline and enthusiasm to all their five children, which, in turn, extended to students who were privileged enough to be in their sphere. I also studied piano and composition with budding performing artists at Bennington, and some established faculty there. My experiences at the College were highlights of my formative years.
