Instruments: Piano Accordion

I have been giving private piano lessons to children and adults for over 10 years. It is extremely gratifiying and rewarding to see students grasp concepts and learn to play. My lessons extend beyond just learning to play a piece of music.  I also discuss theory and harmony when appropriate as we learn new music.  I encourage improvising and email links to various performers in a variety of genres.   Read More

I keep my lessons low pressure and laid back. This is a fun hobby for my students and I try to keep it that way! At the same time, I work with the student to set goals to keep them accountable and making progress. I don't make students perform in front of anybody else unless that is a goal of theirs to work towards. Depending on the student's level, having me playing along with them at times is also something I use to help the student feel more comfortable. Read More

Instruments: Piano Trumpet

I have learned several approaches to the instrument from various teachers. I believe that to understand the instrument and command the instrument takes firstly knowing your own body and secondly knowing the way you learn. Myself and the student will progessively grasp this understanding through certain exercises such as journaling or whatever we may come up with! This is a checklist for being a stud at Trumpet: Get that air goin', and the blood pumpin'! Read More

I meet the student where she/he is. If a beginner, I want her to leave the lesson playing or singing a simple song with a smile. If he is advanced, I want him to leave the lesson engaged even more with the piece we are working on. I use the Faber Book Series for piano teaching and supplement it with my own collection of pieces and teaching tools. This might include a segment of a Beethoven Sonata for an intermediate student, a note-naming App to help beginners learn the language of music, or a version of a student's favorite holiday song to capture their interest.

Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Oboe English Horn Keyboard

I have been teaching over 8 years. I had the privilege to teach at a very young age at my teachers’ request. I tutored students who needed extra help, or had failed their exams. I taught oboe, piano, solfege, harmony and ear training. At the time, I didn’t know how much responsibility I was taking on. But, after seeing all of them pass, I realized I could do more than help them succeed in one class. Read More
