Instruction methods are chosen according to the needs, abilities, and desires of the students. Instruction materials differ depending on the age of the student and the ability of the student. An emphasis on my part is exposing the student to material of the highest quality. This will often mean the exposure to some of the simpler classical pieces written by the great composers fairly early in their musical journey. I encourage a wide variety of material for each student.I also provide an extensive lending library for additional sightreading at home. Read More

My teaching style starts with really trying to understand the student that I am teaching, when I can do that, it makes the whole process of teaching easier. For example, in my experience, something that works for some students, really wont work for others, and if I can identify why something isnt working for a student, I can give them the right tools to fix it. I will usually start with asking the student to play something for me or see what they want to learn, then give them things based on what I hear in their playing, or what they tell me. Read More

Lessons will feature a warm-up period, followed by review of material from previous lessons, playing of new material, and wrap-up with sightreading and assignments for next lesson. Students are often encouraged to self-evaluate and set their own level of rigor. I believe in a collaborative approach that involves questioning students and having students ask questions of themselves. More than having students be able to perform technically, I want students to have an understanding of music and their instrument intimately, from their own awareness, rather than rote explanation or practice.

I don't ever use a universal single method or approach to teach all. Some methods work better for some students but not others. That's why I use different method books with different students. *** Lesson Details *** Various teaching methods for different individuals for sight-reading, ear-training, techniques, interpretation, performance, artistry. *** Specialties *** All genres are taught, yet specialize in classical piano *** Adult Students/Age Sixteen or Older *** Students in this age group feel free to request the specific genre they want to study, unlike youngsters who are taught for every aspect and genre in music Read More
