Teaching
For over a decade, Jason has taught dozens of students of all ages to become their best musical selves. He has guided students to reach a variety of goals, from successful auditions at collegiate music programs, to outstanding scores at the NYSSMA Solo Festival, to gaining new skills in sight-reading, music theory, songwriting, and more.
In their lessons, students will explore multiple avenues of music, including improvisation and composition. No two students are identical, and lessons are tailored to each student based on their talents and needs. Students learn in a positive and enthusiastic environment, and are encouraged to share their music in annual recitals and other public performances.
Jason teaches lessons in-person in New York City and remotely from anywhere in the world. Contact here to schedule your first lesson.
What people are saying
“Jason has been a remarkable and attentive piano teacher for our daughter. Our daughter expressed an interest in learning piano as a teen, and he supported her progress and understanding of the piano thoroughly. A talented pianist himself with exceptional training, Jason has served as a mentor to our daughter as she has expressed a desire to pursue a future in music education. He is kind, patient, adaptive in his lessons and interactions. We highly recommend Jason to pianists of any age or ability to assist in broadening their understanding and abilities with the piano.”

“My daughter has been studying piano with Jason for the last three years, and I have nothing but positive things to say about him. He’s an exceptional musician, a gifted teacher, and an all-around lovely human being. She has grown significantly as piano player and gained a much deeper understanding of music theory during her time studying with Jason. In addition to being a wonderful and talented musician, his lessons begin and end in a timely manner, and he communicates with parents in a clear, consistent and professional manner. He has high expectations but is consistently kind and made lessons enjoyable. My daughter will study music in college next year, and Jason has played an important role in preparing her for the next step in her life and musical training.”
