I am extremely dedicated to my students. Understanding how exciting it is to play with accompaniment, I have played piano for multiple student recitals in order for them to learn collaborative skills as well. The piano is also a great way to teach harmony, music theory and improvisation because of its a visual and kinaesthetic elements. When a piano is not available, I make arrangements in my notation software, so that they can still gain the skills and experience, therefore having the music making process a more emotionally rewarding activity.

It all starts from fundamentals such as having good posture, listening to correct intonations, and learning bow technique. I believe the more students play scales and etudes such as Kayser, Wolfhart, Kreutzer,and Suzuki, the better they would become as a musicians in the future. As the students master the basics and get to know their violins, we'll move on to more advanced topics such as music theory and music history giving them all the knowledge needed to play complex pieces within just a few years of holding their violins for the first time.

My philosophy is that music is part of life and useful in all phases of learning. You may have been labled "right brained" creative or 'left brained" analytical, music connects the two together.

Watching students progress and fall in love with music is deeply rewarding for me. I approach my teaching in a fun and friendly way, using our outlined goals to guide us through learning the instrument. I like to help my students set up their own customized practice schedule and will make notes throughout our lesson so that the student is completely clear on what they must do on their own, With every new element that I introduce, I work on it until I see understanding from the student, so I can see that they know what to work on.

My style is rooted deeply in performance and dramatic interpretation. We will work extensively on microexpressions, which are genuine expressions provoked by real emotion. If we think of real experiences when we sing that we relate to, it will transform the performance and bring it to life. The performance will be more believable. My goal as a teacher is to help you give your best performance that allows the audience to have an emotional experience. Read More
