I love to see my students succeed and want them to desire to continue play music. I also want to see them having fun during their lessons and be able to motivate them to have fun even while practicing at home. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Ukulele Acoustic Guitar

At the beginning of my experience with each student, I assess what the goals are for each student/their family, in the musical learning process.

As the need arises, I will make modifications or changes to the teaching, which better suit the student. Read More
