Degrees / Training / Special Info:

BS in music (piano) Moscow Institure of Music named after Ippolitov-Ivanov

MA in Musik.CUNI Lehman College, f NY.

Overview:

I am a life time piano player. Start music at the age of 6, play piano ever since. Was performing extensively as a gifted young pianist. Stop concert activity later at time. Moved to USA from Moscow (Russia) in 1990. Completed my education at Lehman College with MS in Music pedagogy in 2006. Was on board with "MUSIKA" during 2003-2005 (not sure). Teach piano at Bronx Conservatory of Music and Bronx House Music school. My students are successful NYSSMA participants (all levels ), some are playing as concert masters in churches, some continue in colleges, pursuing musical careers .

EXPERIENCE

My teaching experience dates long time back, when I start teaching music to my young daughter and her friends. I never stop those activities, teaching my friends, their kids and grand kids, organizing musical shows, puppet theaters and life concerts at homes, libraries, churches. Music has no borders, it is international language of hearts and souls Therefore It must be live, must be heard, must be done together. I am teaching professionally for 15 years. My youngest pianist was 4 (8 already) my oldest is 74. Both are dedicated musicians.

METHODS USED
All methods of musical pedagogy are at my disposal. Depending on age, musicality, physical abilities, we can learn : by ear, using Solfege syllables. Letter-Numeric approach, Middle C-G concept. I use practical theory at Key board, encouraging to compose music. Have special approach to developing practical technical skills. I use all in combination, depending on previous experiences of the student. Despite of all "Easy Piano" methods circulating in public, the most part of piano success depends on practicing diligently and regularly. I try to explain this to all, and encourage my students by playing myself and together for fun.

LESSON STYLE
Lessons are structured: 1. Check the homework. 2. Work on mistakes and problems, then proceed to the new segment, if possible. 3. Detail and start practicing a new segment. Questions from the student and clarifications of them. 4. Write down the homework together with the student, focusing on goals, time and amount of practicing. Ask the student to repeat the homework out-loud. 5. Practical theory at the piano, practical exercises for fingers and technical skills from the day one. 6. Discussion of progress. Discussion of desire to play a specific song or piece, and how to "get there".

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.
