I am extremely dedicated to my students. Understanding how exciting it is to play with accompaniment, I have played piano for multiple student recitals in order for them to learn collaborative skills as well.

When a piano is not available, I make arrangements in my notation software, so that they can still gain the skills and experience, therefore having the music making process a more emotionally rewarding activity.

Every day, attention needs to be spent on these studies to develop these core methods. From there, I encourage my students to let me know of their own interests and what they would like to work on.
