"We are so lucky to have found Frida! She has proven to be not only an amazing piano and theory teacher, but also extremely warm, kind and patient. Our daughter, almost 9 years old, always looks forward to her piano lessons. She is learning so quickly, thanks to Frida. Our daughter says that Frida never yells and makes lessons fun (especially what might otherwise be boring). Frida breaks down hard pieces and makes them easier to play. Frida works very hard teaching a variety of important components of piano playing, including sight reading, how to use rhythm, and hand posture. We highly recommend her to anyone in search of a piano teacher."

“Eureka! Recently found a patient teacher who is teaching me to both count and improvise. Building on my accumulated knowledge, I am evolving into a bonafide pianist! More importantly, Frida has developed my confidence so that I am willing to play for fellow human beings! Believe me — this is progress!”

"Both of my children have been attending Frida's piano classes for more than 4 years and love it. They seem to always ask me "when can we have piano?" Frida has been so kind and warm to us that she is like family now. She can work with you in ways that are both friendly and challenging, but not too intimidating. Frida's personal talent and music knowledge are equally important as her capacity for coaching. I know first hand how well she directs, instructs, inspires, and motivates my children. Not only do my children play well, but they're also literate in music theory because of Frida's emphasis on its value in understanding music as a language, not only as expressions of sounds. She works hard and expects the same from my kids and that's why we recommend her to everyone."

"Taking lessons with Frida has greatly improved my life and the time shared in lessons is never without appreciation. Always keeping her word, Frida works very respectably with you ensuring that your understanding of the material is put first. There is no pressure but expectations and goals are reasonably set and expected to be reached. If you are willing to open yourself to the world of music I am sure Frida will be able to guide you."

"Ms. Frida Nemirovsky is a remarkable teacher, possessing a high degree of professionalism, a comprehensive knowledge of music history and theory, and an incredibly warm personality. Additionally, she has the ability to inspire and encourage and can do so without pressuring one exceedingly. She has taught me for more than 6 years, and I can say unequivocally that I've learned a lot from her. From probing into contrapuntal harmonies and structural elements of sonatas, she has unlocked a world of emotions and meanings without which my appreciation for music would stagger. I recommend her to anyone interested in a rich and satisfying experience."

"As an education specialist, in the course of my long career I have seen few educators of Frida's grade. Frida is a remarkable teacher. I have had a privilege to personally witness her teaching over a span of six month when she gave group music lessons at Two Together in New York City, the tutoring non-profit the Queens branch of which I headed at the time. Being a song expert, Frida uses a large variety of age appropriate songs that inspire her students. The use of classical music for activities and games enriches her lesson. Frida has the rare ability to teach effectively in three languages: English, Russian and Hebrew."

"Frida is a very knowledgeable piano teacher with many years of experience and outstanding teaching methods and skills. She expands her teaching skills to fit the needs of her students. Frida is very passionate and enthusiastic about teaching and sharing her knowledge with her students. She pays a great attention to detail and music theory. Frida is very dedicated and has a true commitment to excellence. My son started taking piano lessons without knowing anything at all. He now plays piano at his best. Most importantly he enjoys her lessons and looks forward to having them."
