Meyer started his piano pedagogical career while at Mannes in his second year. In his senior year, he shifted his focus to pedagogy, taking as many applicable pedagogy classes in music as he could. In that same year, he worked as a Mannes tutor in two fields of study: Music Theory, and Ear Training and Dictation. In addition to his pedagogical and solo studies, Meyer rehearsed and performed with many colleagues in their classes, masterclasses, and regular performances.
