Instruments: Piano, Voice, Music

However, in specific moments I am willing to push a student out of their comfort zone to get them to learn something new. Piano: I am not a stereotypical piano teacher! I am very nice, but will also tell you what you need to hear. Especially with beginner, or younger students I think it is important to increase enthusiasm for the instrument while giving students the tools they need to continue pursuing higher levels of technique and understanding.

I love to see progress and excitement in my students. This shows that I am doing my job as a teacher!

I've been teaching on and off over the past 10+ years.

Instruments: Piano, Music

My teaching approach changes from student to student depending on their level and age. I always encourage my students to be creative and my lessons are personalized based on the student's interests.

I always try to keep a balance between technique, ear training, repertoire and music theory. Read More
