Hi! I’m Penelope.
I’m an alumnus of Hofstra University in Long Island, New York where I received a master’s degree in music education.
Aside from my business, On That Note With Penelope, I am currently a special education music teacher in New York where I have been teaching for 10 years.
For 14 years, I’ve taught private students from child, adult, and in between and I have a passion to reach more people to share with them the empowering effects learning music has.
My goal is to “break things down” simply and engagingly so that you can learn music faster, with a lot more enjoyment.

When it comes to affordable pricing and excellent service, On That Note With Penelope has it all. My lessons were so simple and I was able to see results when I practiced on my own. Thank you Penelope for helping me get to level 6 in NYSSMA!
