About Joni
I am a licensed/certified Musikgarten teacher and have enjoyed teaching piano and guitar for 18 years. My service stands out above the others not only because I love what I do but I also have the ability to work well with new beginners as well as those with more experience. My goal is to build a solid foundation of basic skills and move forward from there while having as much fun as possible! I am open to listening to what my students are interested in learning but also find using a method book of great value. I offer a free, introductory online or in studio lesson in order to ensure a good student/teacher fit. I look forward to helping you move forward with your musical journey with The Music Garden!
The creative work I do is extremely enjoyable because I get to meet with a variety of unique individuals each with their own distinct musical aspirations. Having the opportunity to guide each student through carefully thought out learning paths is of great importance to me. What works for one student may not work as well for another so the teacher you choose should be able to adjust and adapt with a flexibility that is also rooted and grounded with skill, experience, knowlege, patience and reasonable expectation of you, the student.
After staying home with my 2 children for several years, I found a job teaching group music and movement classes which I loved so much, I decided to take several years of intensive Musikgarten training and started my own successful business (The Music Garden started in 2001), branching out into piano and guitar lessons, which I continue to teach now.
I am a licensed and certified instructor with Musikgarten, an international music education program which focuses on the listening ear as the first avenue of learning. I started The Music Garden in 2001 after working in the field alongside other musicians prior to that for 10 years. I maintained my own studio of 16 students in NY State for 18 years as well as taught for The Ridgewood Conservatory (Paramus, NJ) for 13 years. I have extensive experience with new beginners as well as those with more training.

To insure that I am the right teacher for you, I offer one free 20 minute introductory lesson. At that time, I can effectively demonstrate my particular teaching style. With older students who have certain artists they like, I am open to guiding them through learning their songs, once some basic skills are mastered. After meeting with a student for the first time, a method book will be determined.
I have worked extensively with students from 4 years old to 75. I absolutely love what I do and feel I do it very well. I am proficient in a "stepping stone" approach to teaching, which builds a solid foundation of skills in either piano or guitar.
Make sure your teacher is compassionate and kind, holding the bar of expertise just high enough to stretch you to learn well.
I am particularly fond of any tasteful outdoor music events. I find them to be very enjoyable!
A few things worth thinking about before reaching out
Students should know that they will need to develop regular practice habits at home. I suggest various regimens depending on the student's age and lifestyle.

My 10 year old son has been taking piano lessons for about 6 months and we are highly satisfied! He has learned so much!!

Joan was an excellent teacher.

I’ve known Joan Swider for many years. She is an extremely talented musician (guitar, piano, percussion). She has a deep love of all kinds of music and has over 30 years experience with teaching infants to seniors. Her teaching style is one of patience with gentle motivation. I highly recommend her for children and adults who want to learn musicEllen C.
Miss Joni taught three of my children guitar and piano. One of them is now a music major in college. Her intuitive instruction, attentive manner and excellent ability were the mainstay of our experience with The Music Garden!Joanne A.
We are thoroughly enjoying piano lessons!!!Rebecca S.
I am now a college student but Miss Joni was my guitar teacher for many years. I really enjoyed our lessons. They were fun, educational and she let me pick the music I was interested in learning, though we also used a method book. We worked on strumming styles, finger picking, reading music, theory, duets, technique and so much more. I would highly recommend her!Rebekah D.
Joni served as a highly qualified addition to my staff at The St. Augustine School of Music teaching guitar, piano and leading drumming circles as well as heading up my early childhood music and movement program 2017-2018.
It was a joy and honor to have her with us as she was a master at negotiating a wide range of ages and musical abilities. She will undoubtedly do well in her online teaching as well!Xenia F.
My 5-year old son attended The Music Garden and received wonderful, holistic and developmentally appropriate music lessons. Not only did he learn piano basics, but Ms. Joni provided him opportunities to explore other instruments that introduced him to various musical textures, rhythms and sounds. The exercises and assignments were interesting and joyful. A very positive experience overall - highly recommended!View more recommendations
