Bill P. says, "Jonathan is an excellent and highly knowledgeable teacher, and he immediately determined the areas where I needed the most work after assessing my skill set. I had played for decades, but developed only a very shallow understanding of notation, nuance, dynamics, and pedaling. Within a couple years, my technique and interest level in all things related to the piano increased dramatically. A great attribute of his program is the use of online lessons, which Jonathan refined during the Covid lockdowns - although skeptical at first, I found that the lessons through Zoom were almost as beneficial as actually being in his studio. He has developed unique teaching tools and applies them very effectively. Highly recommended for all levels of piano students. Bill P. " Read more

Working with Faith is an absolute pleasure! She is professional, patient, and very knowledgeable about her instrument. As a teacher myself who wanted to improve my woodwind doubling, I left every lesson with my questions answered and with a desire to take my flute playing to the next level.
