But I try my best to do that in love while encouraging them when I see even the smallest improvement. I feel as though the key is to play as much as possible.

Instruments: Piano Voice

I studied dance at the age of 6. My mom bought a piano for herself to learn to play.

Committment, joy, and passion are the keys to learning and growing as a music student.  I enjoy teaching all styles, as well having students learn to arrange and express their own style within the piece they are learning.
