About the Author
A recognized music instructor, master mentor and life coach, Nick Ambrosino began his career in education in 1986 He has always found teaching music simple, but facilitating an individual through his or her own course of learning music a much more complex matter. For Nick, learning the language of music is a metaphor for learning about one's self. "While students learn about music and self expression, they more importantly learn the creative problem solving skills that will allow them to achieve anything to which they put their efforts, regardless of whether that goal is musical or not. They learn to believe in themselves and in the achievement of their fullest potential." Nick's blog, which can be found at www.musicsimplymusic.com/blog, offers students and parents useful and motivational tips for attaining their musical and most importantly, their personal goals. Nick is the founder and director of Music Simply Music, Long Island's leading, in-H.O.M.E. (Hands On Music Experience(TM)) music-education program.
