About NJ
I’ve been providing musical services to music community since 1991. I’m a second generation, collegiate level classically trained musician. I've done over 1,000 professional performances covering a wide range of styles and I've personally taught over 20,000 lessons.
I’ve had many musical jobs in addition to performing over 1000 professional gigs and teaching 20,000 lessons – I’ve taught for several music schools, one of which was a very large multi-state school where I was recognized as being one of the top few teachers out of their faculty of over 100. I’ve also managed a music school, owned a recording studio, managed a music store, worked as an instrument repair tech, served as a head sound tech for concerts and plays, I even have experience as a broadcast DJ.
I presently own NJ Music which offers lessons, individual and band/ensemble coaching services and live and studio performance. I'm also the owner of Indefinite Boundaries Multimedia LLC and I'm the founder and owner of TRUsician where I'm the web master and content and curriculum creator.

I have developed my own specialized T.R.I.A.D. teaching curriculum that focuses on physical, mental and applied skill sets along with my exclusive B.R.I.C.K. learning approach which are the quickest and most effective ways to achieve the wide range of skills required for musical success. I've also developed my unique K.I.D.S. curriculum designed specifically for kids that yields great results with less practice required than conventional teaching curricula. As the parent of a growing musician myself, I know the value of this aspect!
I can help you learn your first instrument or take you to the next level if you have prior experience. I can help you learn and play songs faster and better, get in (or start) a band, get and prepare for gigs, write your own music, improvise - the sky is the limit!
I can also help you develop important academic skills such as reading music notation, knowledge of musical vocabulary, development and application of proper practice skills and more. I also specialize in performance, audition and exam preparation (i.e. ABRSM and Trinity) which covers everything from preparation basics, to exam and audition simulations which helps to provide the absolute best preparation experience possible.
I can start from the beginning and I’ll explain every aspect in detail as well as provide easy-to-follow diagrams to use for practice and I always provide a written practice sheet after each lesson that recaps what we covered so you'll know exactly what and how (even how much) to practice!
Step 1: I provide a complete assessment of students prior knowledge and skills.
Step 2: I offer a customized curriculum based on each student's individual goals and needs.
Step 3: I provide a fun and easy to understand approach which provides all necessary information as well as the practical application of the information in the curriculum to real musical situations.
I have employed this structured, highly efficient approach for decades and it yields great results for all ages and experience levels.
Recommendations

I took guitar lessons with Jesse Kessler and they were great! Jesse is extremely knowledgable in all things music. He can answer any questions you may have about physical technique, theory, equipment, recording, teaching, etc. I had played guitar for about 2 years prior to taking lessons with Jesse and with his unique teaching style and helpful tips, my playing quickly began to improve significantly. He is an extremely friendly and patient teacher as well, and will do everything he can to make sure you are getting the most out of his lessons. Whether you are a beginner, intermediate, or advanced player, I would highly recommend lessons with Jesse.
