I typically perform an assessment with every individual during the first lesson. Depending on goals, I will recommend curriculum to achieve the desired results. If a classical approach is desired, I use the Alfred's Basic Piano series and the Hal Leonard method for guitar, along with scale and chord theory literature depending on the level of the student. I also teach jazz/pop accompaniment style improv playing so I print music out from various sources. Read More

I am a strong believer of traditional teaching methods, however, I have learn that we all learn in different ways, so I let my students discover music by teaching them how to relate to the piano first, after they become familiar with the instrument by playing easy but wonderful melodies I start with the process of teaching music notation, scales, chords, analyzing songs, music history, exercises.I teach all ages, I am very patient and supportive, never pushy but firm with my students goals.

I'm a patient teacher that wants to share every bit of knowledge I can with every student. I want to create complete musicians who understand the language of music and the guitar. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Saxophone Flute Clarinet
I've blended my methods with a response to each student I work with by requesting their trust, listening to their places of comfort and interest in playing music, and discovering new avenues of development with the student. I encourage them to draw from those areas in our sessions as we develop our repertoire and enhance individual growth from there. For beginners I tend to start with either Standard of Excellence books or Rubank and build custom practices from there. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin
I like to teach at the student's pace or what their parents have in mind. When I learned piano, my parents wanted me to learn at a high pace, and forced me to rush everything. As a result, I was able to play a lot of pieces, but the quality of the songs were not the best. I ended up slowing down and spent time to actually work on the tiny details of each song. Read More

My teaching style consists of compassion, patience and developing discipline for ones instrument little by little. Nothing is pushed, but my philosophy is "bit by bit." I want the student to be able to be challenged at the same time having fun and enjoying their instrument. I do have my own feel for each student which is completely different and varies to their ability, personality and behavior, but I am constantly tuned into my students to and what their needs and likes are.

Instruments: Piano Music Keyboard
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Classical is what I was taught and is the most pleasant to listen to casually from a pianist in my opinion. However I like all genres of music!
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I am a beginner at the guitar and recorder. My dad plays the guitar so that was initially the instrument I wanted to learn.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Maybe a track runner or a businesswoman. I was very interested in long distance track running and nearly majored in business in university. However I did not go through with either of those routes.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Yes it does! My cousin is a music prodigy who writes sheet music from auditory listening, he also writes his own music. I have 3 siblings who also play music. Two play piano and guitar, one plays the drums, and one also plays the violin and trumpet. There are usually jam sessions happening at my parent’s house!
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
It was a gradual decision for myself. I had surpassed my teachers and knew I wanted to continue learning and performing. I continued to study and perform for auditions and moved onto events from there, eventually becoming the pianist for my local church.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I was taught with Faber, Suzuki, and Alfred. I like Suzuki for the music but am not much of an auditory learner myself - however I do recommend all students listen to the songs they are learning so they understand how it's supposed to sound when they play. I usually stick to one of the three methods above since that is what I'm familiar with, however if a student has a particular method they are learning I am willing to work with them to continue that path if it seems good for them.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal practice session starts out with me doing some scales and fingering exercises to get my fingers warmed up. Then I practice the key for the piece I'm learning. After that I start with the section of music I'm dedicated to memorizing at that time. I usually try to play a whole section at a time, or whenever the music naturally takes a break, until I can get both hands down comfortably and start to memorize the piece. Then I move onto the next section until I've completed the song. This can take weeks or months depending on the length of the piece I am learning and the time I dedicate to learning it.
