Piano Lessons in Paterson, NJ

Instruments: Piano Violin

For students that are complete beginners, I like to start away from the instrument to instill some confidence in reading music and a basic understanding of harmony. Flash cards and memory games have proven to be extremely effective for me, and I've seen a huge change in confidence around a violin when the student isn't overwhelmed with trying to grasp many difficult concepts at once. Hal Leonard's books are a favorite of mine, as well as Harvey Whistler's "Introducing the --" series. Read More

In my studio and teaching methods I want everyone one to know that I teach all ages and all methods!

I customize the lessons to the age, level, and interests of the students! I do require some classical music for students to learn at all times. Read More

For every student, I first find out their personal interests in music as well as outside the music to develop a personal agenda for them. This personal agenda consists of different basic training, exercises, and repertoire that are designed to make them a better overall musician all the while becoming more skilled at the type of genre they wish to learn. On top of that, we spend a small portion of our lesson just listening and analyzing music. Read More

Instruments: Piano Music

For the past decade, I dedicated myself to teaching at the Music Academy in Krakow, where I instructed over 200 students each year. Additionally, I started offering part-time private lessons and have been regularly teaching in my home studio for the last five years. I emphasize the importance of maintaining a consistent practice schedule for younger students, as it significantly aids their progress and fosters a love for the instrument. I also believe that blending classical and contemporary music enhances students' enjoyment and motivation to practice and learn. Read More
