My name is Natalie. I am an experienced teacher of classical piano from Brooklyn, New York. I have been teaching students privately for many years. It is always a pleasure for me to watch thm grow and develop as artists. In my view, the key to teaching is flexibility. With each student, I assess the baseline level of skills and then go on to develop those skills in each and every student.
I have taught piano for the past 20 years. I started with the Russian method, continuing with the European method, and now adding various American teaching methods, including Suzuki method.

During my lessons, I not only practice technique, but also teach students about composers, styles, music history, and of course music theory. I always try to make learning fun, instead of drilling. I believe that if you are passionate about your goals, you will achieve more than constant repetition.
