Introduction
Greetings! I am a full-time professional performing musician in NYC with a degree from The Curtis Institute of Music in Philadelphia, and am currently adjunct music faculty at NYU, Rutgers and Columbia University. Started teaching piano on the side for fun, and enjoyed it so much I’m now looking to expand my studio. I’m experienced teaching kids and adults of all ages and ability levels. I provide a fun, friendly, informative atmosphere where the students are comfortable and challenged. Online teaching during Covid-19 proved effective, and it’s a wonderful solo activity for kids of all ages. I love experiencing the joy of my students discovering music and instilling a sense of accomplishment and discipline in my students. The study of music has shown to have important cross-training educational benefits. But most of all, learning music is fun!

My 8 year old son started piano lesson during covid. Mark allowed for virtual classes, which was so convenient. His friendliness and professionalism made him the obvious choice and my son loves his piano lesson. I am very impressed by how much he’s learned in such a short time. Mark is patient, playful and punctual and you can tell he has a true love for music. We’re thrilled to have found him!

Mr. Mark is a wonderful teacher. My boys have been taking piano lessons with him since January. The transition to virtual classes was very easy. He is very attentive with both my boys. The kids have learned so much in the past 6 months and really enjoy and really look forward for their piano lessons with Mr. Mark.

Mark has been providing piano lessons to my son (now 8) for over a year now. Mark is amazing, he is excellent with my son; patient, friendly, but a very strong teacher. We love to hear my son practice at home and are amazed at his advancement, we have recommended Mark to our friends who are very thankful to us and will continue to do so to anyone looking for a friendly, very accommodating, excellent musician to teach their young child the art and love of playing piano!

My son has been with Mr Mark for almost 2 years. Mr Mark is very patient, responsible. He’s always willing to give more. During the pandemic, we had to choose virtual class with Mr Mark, but it didn’t reduce the quality of the lesson. In addition, Mr Mark always record the music that my son needs to practice after the class, so my son can better understand it. I think Mr Mark is a wonderful teacher and my son is very enjoyed every time when he has class with Mr Mark.
