Hi everyone! My name is Rachel Lieberman, known on stage as Rachel Rose, I’m a Brooklyn-based singer-songwriter with over 10 years of experiencing singing, performing, and writing original music. I studied psychology at the University of Texas at Austin, specializing in child development.

Since moving to New York in 2018, I’ve had the privilege of performing at venues like Bowery Ballroom, Brooklyn Bowl, and PEAK Performances at Montclair State University. I sang the National Anthem at a sold-out MSG Rangers game, appeared on The Tonight Show’s Battle of the Instant Songwriters with Jimmy Fallon, and was an official SXSW Artist in 2024. I was a judge favorite on NPR’s Tiny Desk Contest in 2023, and my original song, “Remember Me” was recognized by American Songwriter as a top 1% submission of 2023.

Marrying my passion for music/performance with my background in psychology and child development has given me a unique edge as a teacher. I've always believed that the psychology of learning is just as important as picking up the instrument itself. In my experience, combining positive reinforcement, patience, and different communication styles are key to getting kids genuinely excited about playing.

I've heard too many stories of one-size-fits-all lesson plans, or forced practice sessions that drain the joy out of music altogether. My goal is to make sure that every child leaves my lessons feeling supported, seen, and excited about their instrument. I will never copy and paste my lessons because no two kids learn the same way.

Whether you're picking up the pen, guitar, or piano for the first time, or looking to take your craft to the next level, I'd love to help you reach your goals
