My daughters have taken piano, uke and guitar lessons from Ben! He is easy to work with and with busy schedules was really nice to find a local instructor who teaches multiple instruments.

We leaned on Ben heavily starting in COVID for piano lessons for our home-bound first grader. Ben was patient and engaging — even over zoom — and was able to instill in our son the basic building blocks for reading and playing music. Our son’s love of music blossomed as a result of those lessons — and we were ever so grateful for the flexibility and innovation in his willingness to teach on that platform. Highly recommend JC Instrumental.

Mr.Ben is a great teacher. My son used to learn piano at his studio for almost 2 years. Due to my son's some other commitments he had to stop the classes unfortunately. But one on one tutor in Jersey Heights was the best option for us. Thank you Mr.Ben for all the efforts you have taken.

Ben taught my kids for several years. My kids were squirrelly and distractable - but Ben was amazing! Calm, responsive. And he did house calls for a bit extra! (A real life saver for us when we had another baby). Highly recommended!

My son took lessons with Mr. Ben at three years of age. Mr. Ben was incredibly patient (he has a daughter about that age, so he totally gets young kids), and my son enjoyed it. Highly recommend! He's a local dad in the Heights which is a plus.
