About
Watching students grow and excel in their piano playing skills.
I am currently enrolled as a Jazz performance major with a concentration in Piano at Montclair State University at the Mason Gross School of music, in my second year.
Knowing that they are eager to learn more and practice everyday.
I will teach the roots of music from, Music Theory and Scales, to learning chords and arpeggios and most importantly, reading music.
I am a long life Pianist and I have the skills in playing Jazz, Classical, and modern music.
I have been giving Piano lessons for about a year and a half now. I live in the Central Jersey area.
I have 13 total years of experience and I enjoy playing and teaching. Teaching is one of my favorite things about piano because I get to share my skills and watch others grow.
I will be attending college to study Jazz Piano Performance to further grow my skills and raise my limits to reach.
