Introduction
I offer professional private lessons for the piano. I'm experienced with students of all ages, and all skill levels. I have a Bachelor's in Music from Wayne State, and I've been working as a full time performer and teacher since 2005! I teach note reading, improvisation, and music theory. We can focus on classical, jazz, show tunes, pop standards, or all of the above. I'm also very experienced with music for religious services. Working with me will give you the skills you need to succeed as a live performer, either as a soloist, or in a group or musical theater setting. In addition to being an experienced musician, I am excellent at presenting information in a clear and understandable way. I tailor each lesson to the specific needs of the student. Every age group, and every type of student, needs a specific approach. The true advantage of a private instructor is their ability to tailor each lesson specifically to you! I'd love to hear from you, to learn more about your goals. Thanks so much, -Matt [Covid-19 Response] Lessons are available virtually, over Zoom, FaceTime or Skype. If you prefer a different video service I'd love to learn about it! When meeting in person in my home, you can expect all surfaces to be sanitized immediately before you arrive, including: -The piano keyboard -The door knob -Pens / Pencils Hand sanitizer will always be available, and I will be wearing a face covering during the lesson.

Matt was very welcoming and took the time to make me comfortable trying something I was very unfamiliar with (singing). His intro to some basic vocal concepts was a great platform into uncharted territory; and though I ultimately decided not to pursue ongoing lessons, I felt like his road map for the future was personalized and encouraging.

Matt is very knowledgeable, patient and calm. My boys look forward to their lessons every week. We do both piano and voice. I think my boys have gained a lot during the short time we have been with Matt so far.

We hired Matt to provide piano lessons to our teenage son, who has a classical music background. However, our son wanted to add pop music to his experience. Matt has proved to be the right person for the job! Our son has already had 6 lessons with Matt and is eager to continue. Matt has the talent, skill and patience to give his students the best experience.
