Lessons by Appointment

Private Instrument Lessons with Musication

The Brooklyn-based Musication offers personalized private, one-on-one lessons on both piano/keyboard and guitar/ukulele for the young beginner to the advancing student who’s been playing for a while. Their primary goal in teaching is to not only help build music skills on the instrument but also to inspire the fun, creativity, and joy that comes with learning to play an instrument.

Private Tutoring by Smith Street Workshop 

We provide French tutoring and academic support for students from Pre-K through high school. The most important aspect of our teaching is to build confidence and to engender a sense of optimism and curiosity in our students when faced with a complex new concept. We look forward to helping your child rediscover the joy of learning and a sense of wonder when faced with intellectual challenges.
