Piano Lessons
My son had always been interested in music and wanted desparately to take piano lessons. With much research and quite a few recommendations, we decided on Mark to be our son's piano teacher. After two years, we are very happy with our decision. Besides the convenience o...f in home lessons, it has never been a chore for our son. Mark has a way of mixing classical with pop and jazz so the kids don't get bored playing the same type of music and can actually play songs they are familiar with. In addition, since music is Mark's career, my son sees the realistic future music can have in his life. There are no recitals, so there is never that stress of learning one song for a performance. Our son can focus on learning how to play properly. Vinnie & John - New City, NY
I enjoy spending the time to take lessons with Mark...
"Mark has been giving me piano lessons for approximately 3 years. We started out learning how to read music which has also helped me to further my clarinet playing skills. He also has taught me theory, scales & technique as well and how to have fun with the music . Ma...rk has introduced me to many songs ranging from show tunes thru classical pieces. His experience in jazz and improvisation has helped my playing with piano for the "Nanuet Jazz Knights" High School band. Last year Mark was involved in helping me compose a song that won the best instrumental award at my school. We both take my lessons very seriously. Last year, I have received a 97 out of 100 on my NYSSMA solo. I enjoy spending the time to take lessons with Mark." Cody>Nanuet
He was supportive and wonderful &He custom designed a learning program
"I have always dreamed that I could play the piano. When I became 60 I said to myself . . . it would be grand to be able to accompany myself singing (I am a professional actor/singer), then I could be totally independent and play and sing day and night. A friend told me... about Mark and I told him of my dream. He was supportive and wonderful. He custom designed a learning program which put me on that specific track. It is now 2 years later, I practice every day and recently got a solo gig! I play and sing and my dream has come true. Thanks to you Mark and practice, of course - that's how you get to Carnegie Hall you know". Judy - Spring Valley
Mark was an important factor contributing to my success at NYSSMA
"Mark was an important factor contributing to my success at NYSSMA. Every week, without fail, he would have me review my scales, which was not exciting for either of us, but something that had to be done. Mark knew that NYSSMA was important to me and was determined to... help me in any way possible. He helped break up the monotony of studying my one NYSSMA piece by introducing me to short, popular songs, which were fun to play. Thanks Mark!" Ashley - New City
