She chose to play the cello. She has had great teachers for individual and group classes. They are motivating, patient, knowledgeable, and know how to incorporate games into the lessons to keep the children engaged. There is also support for parents to learn how to help children practice. The director of the school, Ellen Silver, is one of the most gifted teachers I have ever seen. She is incredibly inspiring. We feel lucky that our family is part of this positive, upbeat, and encouraging community.

She immediately gave me a renewed passion for piano and music in general. She has tremendous experience which opened doors to me for pieces I didn't know about. Not only she was able to push my limits but in a few months I was very impressed by the fact that I was able to play. She also helped me work on my foundation and theory which needed to be strengthened because of my long break. It was such a pleasure to go to class every week. Since then, I have moved across the country, and I miss her so much!

I had no prior musical or performance experience. There are many guitar teachers in New York, but what really stands out about Dan is that he is truly a teacher.

He listens, builds the right foundation, then knows when to challenge me further. I highly recommend Dan as someone who is fun to play with and gets the results you deserve.

Do not fall for his free intro class advertisements - HE IS A LIAR!!!…read more After taking what he advertised on his site and on the phone as a free introductory course, he blocked the way way from leaving his studio and told my bf that he owed him $100 and that intro's aren't free and he had to pay in cash or check. He obviously didn't bring any money with him since this was offered as free and had to go to an ATM that wasn't in network and pay an ATM fee to withdraw a $100 that he demanded I pay for the free lesson he offered. Do NOT take lessons from him - INTRO CLASSES ARE NOT FREE AS ADVERTISED. HE WANTS $100 AND HE WANTS IT IN CASH RIGHT AWAY.

This review is long overdue. I've been working with Jimmy for 4.5 years and he is an incredibly…read morededicated and thoughtful teacher. Brilliant musically, deeply committed to his craft, plans carefully customized repertoires for each student, meeting you where you are, not just in general as a musician, but each week, each moment. He takes the long-term partnership approach to musical development. Kind of like a great shrink, but for guitar. Patient, empathetic. Oh and he's pretty funny too (he thinks he's funnier than he is, but he's actually hilarious). He's pretty strict on spots so it's near impossible to get in, but if this aligns with your approach to learning, and you can get a spot, I couldn't recommend anyone more highly.

Jimmy Rose is an outstanding teacher. He is committed to teaching guitar as his profession and is…read morepassionate that his students become the best musicians possible. My experience has been learning from scratch, but Jimmy has students at every level including professional musicians. I decided in January 2012, to try guitar lessons. I was almost fifty-five at the time and could not play an instrument or read music. I searched the internet for guitar instructors in Manhattan. One particular review said Jimmy Rose insisted that you learn music and not just the guitar. I called to see if he could give me lessons, but he wanted to meet me before committing. He came by the apartment and somehow a fifty-five year old conservative accountant from Texas met his approval. (Jimmy most definitely has none of these characteristics in common with me.) All he cared about was whether I really wanted to learn guitar. Since then I have had a lesson with Jimmy every week, including an eight-month period that I took by skype. My daughter and one of her friends now take lessons from him. My granddaughter takes piano lessons from another of his students. Everyone at work knows who he is. My doormen and our friends know him. He is a great friend to our family. Jimmy has a music degree from Eastman School of Music, and his exceptional knowledge of music and guitar will become apparent over your first few lessons. He starts with the basics of reading music and playing the guitar from the music. (Listen when he tells you to play slow and to tap your foot to keep the beat. I still struggle with those after almost six years.) He assigns you increasingly complex pieces picked to teach new skills. He will laugh when he reads this, but for a while I thought I might one day see the limits of Jimmy's music knowledge. That will never happen. He is extremely professional in his approach and arrives prepared for each lesson. After a while he may even bring sheet music that he has scored specifically for you. There have been numerous times over the years when my work conflicted with my scheduled lesson. He is always far more concerned than I am that we find an alternative time in the week. I give him a hard time that he should take a vacation every few years. If you want to learn about music and become the best guitarist you can be, then Jimmy is your guy. I don't play the guitar well. A little bit of talent would help, but I am hooked on learning about music and guitar from Jimmy. He believes in his ability to make me into a musician. His confidence has been really important when I have struggled or felt discouraged. He just doesn't accept anything other than moving forward. I have no defined end goal. This January will make six years that I have studied with Jimmy, and I plan to stay with him as long as I can. If you are lucky enough to find an opening in his schedule, you will learn why all of his students give him five stars. And by the way, I believe he under prices is services.
