Mark Paulson began his music studies when he was five years old.
He received an Associate of Religious Arts degree from
Northeastern Bible College and a degree in Piano Performance
from Montclair State University. He has performed popular and
sacred music as an entertainer and church musician for over 25
years. He is an adjudicator for The National Piano Guild. Mr.
Paulson's best ability in music is to teach piano. One of his
many teachers was Eleanor Statmore who studied with Rosina
Lhévinne at Julliard. Mrs. Statmore was a wonderful pedagogy
teacher as well as a piano instructor. Mr. Paulson has also
studied with Mrs. Rhoda Nelson, Dr. Paul Satre, Dr. Ruth
Rendelman, and Mr. Edmund Battersby.
Mr. Paulson has taught piano since 1979 in private homes in Glen
Ridge and Montclair, New Jersey. He teaches adults and children
but believes that starting too soon can be frustrating for
children and can cause them to lose interest. Mr. Paulson
recommends that children have a desire to study music and are
able to read words before they begin lessons. Each student that
studies with Mr. Paulson is taught differently according to
their interests and needs. This allows him to retain his
students for long periods of time. His approach has made him a
very popular teacher.
Mr. Paulson has performed for fund raisers, churches, parties,
and weddings since 1979. He plays easy listening music on the
piano or his synthesizer. His audiences enjoy hearing him play
music by Gershwin, Porter, Berlin, and various other composers.
He also plays Broadway music, popular standards, holiday music,
and classical piano. His synthesizer makes it possible to
perform inside or outside. His music adds the perfect touch to
special occasions.
Mr. Paulson's web site at www.njpianoteacher.com is designed to
answer all of your questions.
It has been Mr. Paulson's desire to do whatever he can do to
help students and teachers develop their piano performance and
teaching skills. If he can help you, please contact him.
