This is the theory part. Once a student has a rudimental understanding of theory they can begin to compose their own songs! When this is done spontaneously people refer to it as improvisation, but don't let the names fool you. Read More

The key to my teaching style is to take my personality that has been so effective in concert and use it as a catalyst to inspired my students to gain confidence, set goals, and press on to master their instrument.

I want to inspire my students to enjoy music in their day to day life, and have a passion on playing the instrument or making music. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice

My approach/style to teaching is quite straight forward. My first question is often how long has the student been studying. Does he/she play another instrument?

Whatever the reason, it gives me great joy to see 'the expression of wonder' when a student achieves his/her goals. Read More
