As an educator with over ten years of experience, I have a wealth of knowledge and experience that will help children to excel. I attended Trinity School in New York City, where I had the opportunity to receive a high-quality education. From there, I matriculated to Columbia University. At Columbia, the core curriculum and the requirements for my major consisted primarily of English and history courses. One of the main reasons that I decided to attend Columbia is because of the focus on the core. I wanted to receive a well-rounded liberal arts education. When I became a teacher, my passion for English and literature enabled me to instill a passion for reading in my students, who had previously struggled with reading. It gives me great joy to teach students and to help them become better learners. Since graduating from Columbia in 2005, I have received dual certification in Childhood E

Over 30 years; I specialize in teaching piano, choral conducting, vocal pedagogy, ethno-musicology, composition, music theory, harmony / counterpoint, and ear-training with solfege. I have taught children 6-18 for the past 30 years. I firmly believe that great education knowledge needs to be unfettered from the towers of elite schools like the Academy of Music in Paris, The Juilliard School, and others; this is why in 2005 I initiated a project called i-Learn Music 4 Free. In this spirit that I have published over 55 music education manuals, and created 32 ear-training lessons, available for free at 32 Free Lessons for Ear-Training with Solfege {32 hours, 448 videos}. Every child can develop a professional musical ear and enjoy the benefits of a solid music education through singing with Solfege. from zero to Juilliard!!!
