Review Time
I'm a gigging pianist who had reached an impasse in my jazz development before meeting Charlie. Charlie changed all that.
Over the years I had worked with several local jazz mentors, with limited results. I now needed to find someone who understood my plight and could really help me move forward.
Enter Charlie - a consummate professional educator and a superb jazz pianist. Charlie really helped me break down my barriers using his tried-and-true jazz method.
Access to the Novu Academy was the icing. It provided me with terrific tools and tutorials to get me working at my own pace between lessons. Invaluable.
Taken together, I was able to chart a truly results-oriented path towards developing my own jazz voice. Thank you Charlie !
Highly Recommended.
As a performing pianist, I was at a standstill in my jazz journey until I met Charlie. He turned everything around for me. Despite working with several local jazz mentors over the years with minimal results, I needed someone who truly understood my challenges. Charlie is a consummate professional and an exceptional jazz pianist. He helped me dismantle my barriers using his effective jazz teaching methods. Access to the academy was the cherry on top, providing me with fantastic tools and tutorials to work at my own pace. Together, I was able to carve out a results-driven path towards developing my own jazz voice. Highly recommended!
My journey with the academy has been fantastic. As a member, I have access to a wealth of quality resources from beginner to advanced levels. The online courses are well-structured and allow for repeated viewing until mastery is achieved. The real breakthrough came after I scheduled ten private coaching sessions. From our first session, I knew I was learning from a seasoned professional. The foundation laid by the academy has been invaluable. As a beginner, I found joy in reading and playing jazz standards for the first time. If you've struggled with piano or feel burnt out, consider joining the academy to unlock a new musical world.
I had an incredible ten weeks with Charlie. After playing piano for 12 years, I was eager to explore jazz but didn't know where to begin. Relying on online resources only slowed my progress. Charlie broke down jazz concepts into manageable pieces, especially for beginners, making them easy to grasp. He is a wonderful instructor who made our lessons informative and enjoyable. We tackled several standards and the intricacies of improvisation. His academy is rich with resources, clearly reflecting the effort he put into the courses. I highly recommend the academy and his lessons for anyone keen on starting jazz or willing to put in the effort.
I had a great experience with Charlie’s one-on-one tutorials. His delivery is excellent, and he’s always willing to assist outside of lesson hours with personalized videos. Charlie is serious and consistent in his approach. If you're serious about improving your jazz piano skills, I highly recommend him and his academy.
Charlie is an outstanding coach and teacher! He has a unique talent for breaking down complex concepts into practical applications. Throughout my jazz sessions, he was consistently supportive and motivating. The academy is a treasure trove of resources, accessible at any time. The layout is user-friendly and easy to navigate. Thank you!
Charlie possesses an incredible depth of knowledge on how to effectively teach students at any skill level in jazz. He's also an accomplished classical musician and everything in between. I always left our lessons feeling empowered with the tools to elevate my playing. It’s all about trusting the process and putting in the effort daily, but Charlie is there to support you throughout, making it enjoyable. As a piano teacher myself, I've tried various programs and instructors, but none compare to the results I achieved with his one-on-one coaching and academy. If you're ready to commit and work hard, Charlie is the teacher for you.
Charlie is warm and welcoming, making it easy to connect with him. Each lesson, he is fully engaged and meets me at my level. His voicing system is crucial for grasping the foundations of jazz piano, and it's surprising that major institutions aren't utilizing it. His teaching style is clear and digestible, and he's flexible with scheduling, making learning accessible. If you want to truly understand and feel jazz piano rather than just play, Charlie's academy is the place to be. I can't recommend him enough!
During our initial consultation, Charlie demonstrated his attentiveness and professionalism while also being very welcoming. I felt confident investing my time and energy in pursuing my goals. Learning from him was about more than just jazz piano; it was about receiving support and understanding throughout the process. He is highly organized and teaches in ways that are easy to grasp. Each session offered unique methods and strategies that were incredibly helpful. I thoroughly enjoyed learning about jazz fundamentals and spread voicing. I highly recommend him and appreciate his assistance in every aspect.
My experience with the academy and Charlie has been very positive, supportive, and enjoyable! In jazz, consistent progress is tough without a good mentor. Charlie is an exceptional musician and an even better teacher. He remains positive, motivates me during struggles, and encourages improvement in every class. He customizes lessons to match personal goals and is always available for questions. After starting with a ten-week program and seeing remarkable improvements, I enrolled in another fifteen-week course. The academy's website is an excellent platform for learning jazz, offering a vast library of lessons tailored to any skill level. I intend to continue my classes to deepen my love for music every day!
