Teaching Philosophy: "My educational philosophy is to make each student’s life in music school memorable in the most positive way.  I believe that every child is an individual, and that my role as an educator is to reach out to every student and to make the music classroom an exciting place to be.  I have earned the reputation of being a knowledgeable teacher and have built great relationships with my students.  My degree in music education was earned from the Gnessin Institute of Music, in Moscow, Russia and in music performance from Boston University, School of Fine Arts.  In my teaching style, I use both the European and American ways of learning music.
Over years of teaching students from middle school to high school levels, I have learned from my mistakes and have been able to adjust my teaching style, without compromising my quest for the student's best.  In every lesson I use a routine that keeps students engaged in a learning mode.  I also understand that some young people are sensitive, shy, or uncertain, and I find a way to build trust between the student and me. That way might be giving advice, making extra time after the lesson, or on occasion, a call to confer with the parents. There is always a place for a sense of humor to ease tension or just set a student’s mind in a positive way.

"My knowledge of music is vast and meant to be shared. I have honed successful methods for teaching all types of music, including band, general music, chorus, string orchestra, and music technology to students of varying musical abilities.  Watching the students grow their proficiency in music is very rewarding, and I thrive on preparing for and giving performances with the students."


Andrei Sobchenko completed his Bachelor’s degree in Music Education and Performance at the Gnesin Institute of Music in Moscow, Russia and the Master of Music degree at Boston University.  Mr. Sobchenko has appeared as a soloist and orchestral musician in Russia, France, Germany, and the USA.  In Russia, he was Principle Saxophonist with the Russian Federation Concert Band, and he played with major orchestras, including the Moscow Philharmonic and the USSR State Symphony.  As a soloist in the USA, Andrei Sobchenko appeared on National Public Radio to premier a newly commissioned sonata for Saxophone and Piano by Pulitzer Prize composer John. Harbison.  At the XI Congreso Mundial de Saxofon in September 1997, he premiered the trio for cello saxophone and piano “Mahler in Blue Light” by composer Larry. Bell.  Mr. Sobchenko’s articles have been published in “Saxophone Journal,”USA and “Saxofonbladet,” Denmark.  In the Boston area, he is performing with Nor Trio as well as with the Longwood Symphony and with the New England Philharmonic under the directorship of Richard Pittman.  Currently, Andrei Sobchenko is working with Paul Effman Music Service Inc. instructing wind instruments in Massachusetts, and the Instrumental Music School of Concord and Carlisle.

Andrei has been teaching since 1988 and has been with Note-worthy Experiences since the Summer of 2020, where he teaches online and in person violin, saxophone, and clarinet.
