Ben is an amazing musician and a wonderful human! He approaches the instrument intuitively and incorporates musical theory and playful jam sessions into every lesson. We recommend him whole-heartedly. Here is a note from my 10-year old son Jacob: Ben is my favorite piano teacher and always will be. I have learned so much in the past year. To me, he is so special because I can learn my favorite song and have fun learning it. Even when I'm really sad because I haven't had enough time to practice, the class is always fun because of him. Playing Classical music like Eine Kleine Nacht Musik is really fun after playing some crazy hip-hop or even Taylor Swift.

Jacob is very patient, skilled, and highly informed in music theory. I learned so much and we made a lot of progress in just one lesson. Definitely hit the jackpot having him as a teacher!

Within ONE lesson, Howard could pinpoint EXACTLY what my trouble areas are, and not only is he able to articulate a very clear plan for dealing with those, but he has also helped me with the burdening amount of pain that plagues my joints and muscles when I play something technically demanding! Furthermore, he is very focused, understanding, knowledgeable and gentle! After having many verbally.... difficult teachers whose teaching involved quite a bit of negative reinforcement, it is an absolute pleasure and an eye opening experience to have a patient, understanding teacher. Some people may learn quite well in that fashion, and there was a period of time when I actually believed, or rather was brainwashed into thinking that being verbally berated would serve as motivation. But now I see quite clearly that is not the case: I learn a lot better and I am more motivated to practice when I find it a pleasure to go to my piano lessons! Thank you, Howard for all your dedication, patience and knowledge!

Shane has been my piano teacher for several years, and I’ve learned so much under his guidance. He is not only a master pianist but also an exceptional teacher who can work with students of all levels. He continually challenges me to grow and improve, keeping me motivated and inspired on my piano journey. I genuinely look forward to my lessons with Shane every week!
