My Approach:

I took piano lessons for one year when I was 10, we played scales, and when we were done with scales for the day we played exercises. I hated it so much I didn't touch a piano for another 10 years. Every kid I help avoid that fate I consider a job well done.

Very kind and friendly.

“He is a great musician and a great teacher. He has answers to everything and always helps me when I’m confused or can’t do something.  He is also very kind and friendly.  Jesse also gives me multiple things to work on so I keep improving on different things.  He is great.”

I would easily recommend him

“Jesse has been teaching our kids music for about three years!  He is always very prompt for the piano lessons at our home which is most appreciated with our crazy schedules. As my daughter has advanced he has even come a few minutes earlier to devote more time to her outside of the planned lesson slot.  He is creative and he is always working to bring out the best in the kids and keep them motivated.  I would easily recommend Jesse as a piano teacher or for any other instrument!”

We appreciate him as our kids music teacher and recommend him highly

“He is an excellent piano teacher for many reasons. He really gets the kids to focus on the foundations and fundamentals, while also allowing them to explore their own musical interests. His goals are to have the kids really understand how to read and play music, beyond their time with him as a teacher. In my view, that is truly what a teacher should be doing with their students. We appreciate him as our kids music teacher and recommend him highly”.
