Cynthia Oest [aka Cindy] is a dynamic and innovative piano teacher with an extensive background in applied behavior analysis. She has been working with children with special needs for more than 20 years. She received the majority of her ABA training at the Carbone Clinic in Rockland County, NY and earned a bachelor of science in Fine Arts with a concentration in music from Long Island University, CW Post Campus.
Cynthia has been working in various settings using the principles of ABA in clinical and classroom settings, as well as teaching piano. One of Cynthia’s strengths is using what she has learned from working in ABA to individualize, and customize her piano lessons to meet the needs of each individual student. While each lesson is planned and a goal is set, Cynthia assesses and adjusts within each lesson to maximize each student's interest and progress, based on each student's ability and need.
