Instruments: Piano

I started taking piano lessons at age of five and already knew that it would be my career’s path. I always loved everything that related to music: dancing, composing, and singing in a school choir. I participated in many recitals, competitions winning some prizes, so it became clear I could not see my life without music. I enjoyed playing many different types of concerts in Russia getting the best experience as a piano player. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice

Often, the song is in a different genre entirely!) Piano: I generally teach from the Alfred Beginning Piano series, and the Hanon book of 60 exercises, to build strength and dexterity in the fingers. Theory and sightreading is introduced on day-one, and emphasized in every lesson going forward. I will always recommend additional books that are tailored to your interests -- there are a few blues fakebooks I love to recommend, for example, as well as classical etudes, improv books, and more, all to help round out your education.

I teach for each student individually and to their strengths, not what has worked for others. Read More

My general philosophy in music teaching is to ensure that the student, regardless of background and ability, learns something from music aside from performance skills. Nothing excites me more than to see that a student feels happy from learning something new or overcoming a challenge. However, I also aim to build a positive relationship with students by seeking new ways to keep the lessons fun and to ensure that they are satisfied with the music they are learning, etc. Read More
