Private Music Lessons in Cambridge, MA

🎼Hi! I’m Fatima, a dedicated pianist and piano teacher with over 15 years of experience. I completed 11 years of music school training, followed by a four-year bachelor’s degree in piano performance, and I am currently pursuing my master’s degree at the Longy School of Music of Bard College. I began teaching piano when I was just 15–16 years old, preparing students for entrance exams to music schools and helping them build a solid foundation. During my bachelor’s studies, I competed extensively across Europe, earning numerous first-place awards, grand prizes, and other recognitions in international piano competitions and festivals. My teaching approach is tailored to each student’s goals, whether you’re an absolute beginner or an advanced player looking to refine your technique and interpretation. I currently teach students ranging in age from 5 to 72, and I am passionate about creating an inspiring, supportive environment where everyone can discover the joy of music. I offer lessons both in my home studio and at students’ homes. Feel free to reach out to ask about availability—lessons can start right away! Let’s make music together.🎹

I have been playing the piano and drums over 20 years! My customers trust their events and their musical learning experiences to me because I am honest, customer-focused and I easily adapt to change. I can flow with any event and value my customers needs

ATTENTION: - I'M OFFERING A SPECIAL: IN PERSON OR ONLINE, 4 1/2 HOUR LESSONS FOR 1/2 PRICE $20 EACH. WHAT WOULD NORMALLY BE $180 IS NOW $80. In person lessons must be fully vaccinated. My regular rate is $45 1/2-hour, $80 hour. There's never a contract. People want to study singing for so many reasons. You've sung all your life and want to sing better. You'd like to be able to audition for a better chorus or a part. You were told you were tone-deaf when you were 5, and haven't dared make a sound since, or if you have, people have laughed at you. Those are all good reasons. My job is to take you wherever you are, whatever you hope to achieve, and help you sing better whatever that is. The lessons themselves can be done online, or in person within New Jersey only. New Yorkers usually don't want to come to NJ, but you could take lessons online. If you're apprehensive doing lessons online, please read my reviews. Quite a few of them are from online students. There's never a contract. You can try one lesson and see what you think. Your health is the most important thing to address in lessons. People come to me with chronic sore throats from strain, limited ranges, breaks. We fix these things, and you sound great and have fun. I don't let 12-year-olds sound like they're 30. I care, and I'm good. The human voice is the most wonderful toy I can imagine. As a teacher, I get to play in everyone's toy box. It's all fun. I love helping someone who thinks they can't sing on pitch sing on pitch. I love working with people who've sung all their lives and just hope people won't laugh at them. I show members of the chorus that they're soloists, and no one's laughing. I love working with beautiful, strong, healthy voices that just need a little help to fly. I love it all.

I have a passion for singing and performing, and I absolutely love sharing that enthusiasm with people of all ages! I get excited to pick out specific repertoire perfect for individual students and to work with them in depth in order to beautifully sing that piece of music. Passionate about expression, diction, and technique I aim to inspire others to reach their highest potential and musical goals. Getting to watch my students progress over time and seeing all of their wonderful accomplishments is the best part about being a teacher for me!
