I love learning, and I want to make your learning experience as fun and easy as possible. A lot of teachers rely on repetition and boring busywork, but I believe that learning should be fun and interesting. Creativity is key, even for "uncreative" subjects like Math. I'm a fun guy. I graduated from Carthage College in 2010 with a degree in Computer Science and a minor in Japanese. I spent my last semester abroad in Japan a tutored English while I was there. When I came home, I started fixi... Read more
Bob
Piano instruction, ages 7 up. Reading, ear training, theory...
I've been teaching for over 40 years and performing for 50. My curriculum is initially classically based: sight reading, ear training, and theory. With time, the students preferences come into play. Classical is the base for knowledge, from which all other styles can be derived. I will take students from 7 years up. I have all the references you wish; 75% of my students continue learning/playing after they leave me. Last but not least, I make it a pleasurable experience. No "I hate pi... Read more

I also inaugurated and led several interdisciplinary initiatives, sometimes administering a program... Read more
