Instruments: Piano

My teaching has been a very gratifying experience for me. After my career in Advertising, I returned to music and playing piano ( as well as being a Pre-School Music teacher). I have been teaching for over 15 years and you might say I am a “ Seasoned Pro “. My students are of all ages and abilities. I love when a student requests a particular piece to play or tells me of playing piano for friends and family. Read More

My teaching method is to provide exercises, pieces, and etudes that are at an appropriate level for the student. I listen to my students play, and I comment on good aspects and any problems. During each lesson, I will explain how performance problems can be corrected. This will ensure that the student will develop good fundamentals for musical performance. The fundamentals that I teach are tone, time, rhythm, articulation, vibrato, finger technique, music reading, and basic music theory. Read More

Im a very go with the flow type of teacher. I will always cater to my students needs, so if that means sticking with one song for a year, thats what we will do. What I dont want to happen is for music to become a chore, so if we find that something isnt working, I have no problem switching it up. Any progress we make in lessons is good progress, and I will make sure to acknowledge that. Read More
