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

This is Walter. Mandarin Chinese is the language I started to speak at one year old.

But definitely my scientist background will make the teaching more organized, more informative, and more interesting. I have two kids and know how to work with kids. Boys and girls will have fun while learning the language in a comfortable and pleasant atmosphere. Adult students will f... Read more
