About Itai
Itai graduated from SUNY Purchase with a BA in Studio Composition in 2007, and from Hebrew College with a Masters' Degree in Jewish Education in June, 2016. He has been working in after-school, Hebrew school, camp, and other supplementary educational settings for over ten years. Itai's Hebrew students are either studying for their bnei mitzvah, maintaining their conversational Hebrew, or learning for the purpose of competence of services or Torah study. His piano students have ranged from five-year olds just starting, to young children learning Classical pieces, to teens learning to play the songs they like, to adults working on their songwriting and improvisation. Lessons will accommodate the student's goals. Itai's strengths are improvisation, music theory and ear training, and accompaniment of popular songs - rock, theater, pop, folk,
etc. As a musician, Itai writes songs, composes music for communal singing, improvises, and plays in a Klezmer band. Aside from tutoring, Itai works as a songleader, teaches at the Hebrew school at his synagogue, growing a new outdoor Hebrew school, and occasionally teaches at an outdoor education program.

About Lucia
Hello! My name is Lucia, I am native Spanish speaker from Barcelona, Spain.
I started teaching students when I was very young at the age of 17 as a private tutor.
My passion for teaching went on so I ended up doing a master in education for Spanish and English language after getting my degree in Translation & interpreting.
I was an english teacher in a private school during two years in Barcelona. Now I am moving to Boston and I am very excited to have my new team of students! Really looking forward to meeting you!
My classes can be adapted to the needs of each student. We can follow a traditional methodology (focusing on the area that involves more difficulty), or combine it with more up-to-date exercises and activities (working with TV shows and series, music, conversations ...) where, without realizing, you will be learning and at
