Piano Lessons in Woodbury, CT

Instruments: Piano Voice Ukulele Music Keyboard

I create custom lesson plans for each student based on their goals, experience level, learning style, and musical interests. A typical voice lesson includes vocal warmups, ear training, style exploration, and repertoire work. I draw from vocal anatomy, healthy technique practices, and real-world performing experience to build strong, versatile singers. For piano students, I introduce music theory, rhythm, and note-reading in a clear and creative way that emphasizes musicality and confidence. Read More

Instruments: Piano Synthesizer Keyboard

My teaching experience dates back 20 years,as I began teaching private music lessons upon graduating from college. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument. I've also found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the piano and motivate them to practice and continue to learn. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Flute Music Keyboard Acoustic Guitar

Nothing is more important to me than seeing my students enjoy the time they dedicate to taking lessons and learning an instrument. All too often students take lessons out of obligation and ultimately dread their lesson time every week! The last thing I would ever want my students to feel is pressured. I want my students to feel excited about what they are pursuing, and hopefully I can add to that excitement by fostering a positive atmosphere during lessons. Read More

Instruments: Piano Bass Guitar Double Bass

I have written several books for the upright and electric bass player that cover all aspects of learning to play the bass. Depending on goals, for most upright players I would recommend a solid grounding in Simandl for learning the hand positions and fingerboard. I also recommend transcribing as well as sight reading and some jazz harmony. All these things are incorporated into my lessons. For electric and upright players I recommend learning tunes, musicianship, technical studies, and maintaining a professional attitude on the gig. Read More

I'm a Jazz/Classical pianist, composer, and educator. I graduated from Concordia University and started my career as a Jazz pianist in Montreal QC.
