Punctuality is one of my priorities as I mentored students who successfully passed auditions for the conservatory or private schools. I am fully qualified, with a B.M from Berklee College of Music. I have also been classically trained in a private school named the IMEP Paris College of Music, France. I am a very versatile player and teacher so I can cover any guitar styles and genres students desire to learn more about. Read More

I am a patient and flexible teacher. I have extensive knowledge of theory and various techniques, but I make sure the student is learning what they want. I believe in teaching songs to introduce new skills. Through repertoire, the student can learn theory, ear training, technique and other fundamental skills. I have been playing guitar and bass since 2000 and started playing piano and ukulele in college in 2008. I specialize in jazz and improvisation, but I have studied and love all kinds of music like folk, reggae, classical, rock and blues. Read More

I always try to guide my instruction in a fun and engaging direction to keep the student interested and motivated to get better. I am able to do this by being energetic and enthusiastic about my teaching and I feel its important to make the material matter to the student. When a student has confidence in their abilities they are able to achieve much success on their specific instrument. As I also previously mentioned, getting to know what inspires a student and knowing them on a more personal level helps develop a better student/teacher relationship and thus yields a better outcome on the instrument.

I really enjoy creating a custom plan for each student to help get them to where they want to go in playing an instrument. Read More

My experience in the music therapy field as well as my personal experience being homeschooled when I was young has led me to hold the philosophy that every student succeeds most in an individualized environment. For that reason, I first learn about the student: their interests, their strengths, their struggles, and the way that they see the world. From there, I design goals that are personal to them, and design a curriculum that works for their learning style. Read More
