Michael
Classically Trained Piano Instructor
Hello: I am very excited that you are considering me to be your piano tutor. Whether one is performing or listening, music is supposed to be enjoyed. While learning a musical instrument is never easy, I believe the mastery of any skill requires patience and concentration. I would demand a lot of time and work from each student. And success would be defined as how far along they come after a month, several months, or years. Some of the warm-up skills I focus on are: scales, arpeggios (... Read more

I break down complex language in their reading passages and assignments into simple, und... Read more

I have extensive experience in elementary math, algebra, trigonometry, geom... Read more
