Greetings! I studied music in Russia in 1980s and hold degree in piano teaching and collaborative piano performance. My approach to teaching music emphasizes music appreciation and artistic expression coupled with effective study techniques. I have taught piano and voice for over 30 years to both adults and children. Music is a language and my goal is always to lead students in learning how to communicate using this beautiful tool.

I have taught hundreds of people how to play guitar from the ground up, or improve their existing skills. My lesson plans are developed around YOU, because it is not about ME. We now have a wealth of online resources, and this is a great thing, but one problem I am hearing is about information overload. Even in online lessons, it can sometimes be difficult to preserve the human element. If you are in the Greater Rochester NY area and are interested in beginning or enhancing your playing, contact me, and let's see if I can help you out, I usually can. I teach 1 hr. lessons, and can work on flexible schedules and even short-term projects, if ne...

Hi, I'm Jordan! I am from the NYC area, currently living in Rochester, New York. I am a young, energetic, high level instrumentalist with a special interest in teaching music. I love teaching all kinds of music, especially to beginners. I use a student-centered approach and encourage people from all backgrounds and skill levels! My favorite topics to teach are piano, saxophone, music theory, composition, and jazz improvisation. I believe that studying music is a privilege and is vital to becoming a well-rounded person.

My 11 year old grandson, Mason, has been taking classical piano lessons from Dr. Newbrough for almost 2 years, and we find Dr. Newbrough to be a brilliant and inspiring instructor. Every week when we get to Mason’s lesson it feels like we’re passing through a magical portal to a place of peace and well-being! Dr. Newbrough’s sense of humor and use of metaphors exude positive energy which helps to build Mason’s self confidence. Mason anticipates his lesson every week and works hard to make his teacher proud of his accomplishments. Since he has ADHD, Mason has difficulty maintaining his concentration and self control, but Dr. Newbrough is keenly aware of his need to move and then recenter his focus. Mason’s self esteem and belief in himself has soared, culminating in his excitement to perform at recitals and even competitions which I never thought he would do! The gift of piano music and practice in our house has changed and charged our home (and the neighbors’ homes when the windows are open!) with a rare calming ambience and feeling that all is right in the world. As an added bonus, Mason’s piano practice provides an antidote to playing video games all the time, lol ! The beautiful Newbrough Piano Academy has many confident and loving teachers dedicated to infusing piano music into the lives of students young and old. We are blessed to have found this amazing gem of a place, and plan to stay for many years!

Jack has been an awesome instructor to have for my son. He takes the time to explain why different things matter and to come up with ways to explain things in terms he can understand using things that interest him.
