Utilizing the philosophy of experiential education, I encourage my students to explore music through their own personal experiences.

My purpose is to not only teach the technical aspects of the instrument but also develop a deeper and more personal connection to music. Read More

I always start with applicable musical theory to help the student understand the basics of piano and what are the proper techniques to play the instrument. The same applies to voice lessons.

Each student is individual, so based on the pace I create a schedule, which always includes implementing the learnt material more and more, so that student can perform basics automatically correct.
