My son started learning piano with Jonathan since age 5 and he’s a junior now, still taking weekly lessons at his own choice, which says a lot about Jonathan’s teaching quality. He’s patient and encouraging, and his lessons are challenging and rewarding. Most importantly he is willing to listen to my son and keeping the love of music going. In addition to techniques, he introduces music theories in the lessons and help him prepare for NYSSMA. He’s very professional and always prepared for lessons. My son truly enjoys the lessons after so many years and it looks like music will be part of his life. For that we are forever indebted to Jonathan. Overall, I would highly recommend Jonathan to anyone looking for a patient, competent, and skilled instructor who is dedicated to helping his students achieve their musical goals.
