I studied classical piano for 10 years and have a minor in music from Carroll University. I studied piano & music theory with Ray Santisi. Ray was an instructor at the Berklee School of Music in Boston. I played piano in the Lobby Bar of the Pfister Hotel for over 25 years. In 2020, the Pfister cut back on their entertainment due to the Covid. I have also played for Royal Caribbean Ships and other cruise lines. I only teach 1-hour lessons.

Aroba M. says, "Frank has been a tremendous help through my advancements in piano technique and interpretation. His application of Italian bel-canto principles, as well as his natural exercises of the hands and wrists, has broadened my technique in indescribable ways. Just by watching his hands play the keyboard, I can apply his principles to create an incredible interpretation from a technical and interpretive standpoint." Read more

I aim to connect with people and push them to express themselves through music. Piano lessons with me allow you to explore your intererests past reading notes and rhythms. Student learning is reinforced through flaschcards, puzzles, and recorded videos to assist with practice outside of lessons. Connecting with people in a one-on-one hands-on setting is my greatest joy from music. Music can bring out many emotions that can make you feel happy, sad, energized, or relieved. These emotions can relieve stress, improve mood, and provide an escape when everything seems to go wrong....

Have been teaching for 25 years. Degree is on Music Therapy but found my true place was in teaching. I enjoy beginners of all ages and enjoy watching each student progress over time.

Also enjoy playing duets with my students as well as continuing lessons for myself. I enjoy watching students get hooked on music "for life ".I take a casual approach but can. Be firm when needed. It's never boring. Every student is different and I enjoy the challenge of figuring out a different way to explain c...

Ms. Jennifer did a wonderful job with my two daughters, ages 8 and 7. In the short few months they had with Jennifer I feel they had amazing progress. Additionally she is very accommodating to any concerns we may have brought to her. She always keeps us up to date on their progress and what they need to focus on. I would have continued to keep my girls with her for the long term but sadly we are moving out of state. I would highly recommend her!
