Teaching private music lessons to students of all ages and experience levels is a dynamic and rewarding endeavor that requires adaptability and a tailored approach. To begin, I start by assessing each student's individual goals, musical tastes, and prior experience. For beginners, I focus on building a strong foundation in music theory, basic techniques, and instrument proficiency. As students progress, I gradually introduce more complex concepts and repertoire suited to their interests and abilities. Read More

Instruments: Piano

I have been teaching piano since 2005 and been very active in Greater Boston area since 2014. I've had students aged from 4 to mid-50. I also worked as a tutor at Berklee College of Music during my study. Dicipline may be the most important thing to emphasize in the very beginning stage of learning. But I see learning piano more as a creative process, encouraging students to have a personal connection with the instrument by introducing songs they know, helping them to write simple songs and so on.

Instruments: Piano Voice

Teaching voice is about so much more than teaching technique and learning a song. To sing freely one must feel safe and at liberty to try things, to make sounds which in other places are frowned upon.

I believe everyone is capable of being more expressive and learning more notes, and I aim to foster that positive attitude. Read More

Students with learning disabilities are always challenging, but I have had much success with them. Read More

I find that it drives the student to learn the instrument for himself. And as the student wants, more and more, to prove that he can "beat the instrument," he begins to work at it in ways that I can't teach. Learning an instrument is more than showing up for one hour each week. Practice is everything. I feel that my methodology encourages students to take on the instrument head on and learn how to solve problems on their own so that they can practice and improve more quickly. Read More
