If you are an organist or an aspiring classical composer or simply a music savant, the two books by Morris are a must for you. For the more focused on just classical , I use the repertoire from the Suzuki piano books. Once Bayer is finished the student is ready for advanced piano studies. Read More

My teaching style is based on traditional classical approach of Russian Piano teaching method. For younger, beginner level student lessons are structured around different activities and games (for very young students) to learn notes reading and rhythm. For intermediate and more advanced students each lesson starts with a warm up, of scales, arpeggios, etudes or other technical pieces. After that we move onto working on individual pieces of music. Student is explained what needs to be done to achieve desired results for each specific piece, and the homework is written in a notebook for the following lesson. Read More

My focus is on Technique, Warm ups, and Injury Prevention on each instrument. I like to give precise instructions on how to build up discipline and practice regimens.

I try to make each lesson, fun and inspirational. Each person learns differently. This is known as "modality" Auditory By ear, or tonal instruction Kinesthetic By feel, learns from physically being shown, a hands-on learner Visual By sight, by fret board position memory and shape.

I am a very patient and understanding person teaching all ages, learning styles/abilities and cultures. What the students love is crucial in order to capture that magic to incorporate into the weekly lesson plans. I also specialize in have following extra areas: Special needs (creative music art), "Princess/Pirate Music" (youngsters), Coach Music as a natural form of alleviating some social emotional problems for some students...in other words making daily stresses seem not so big after a refreshing music class for most, lol!

For children who are at a beginner level, I like to use Piano Adventures until they reach level 2B, and then switch them over to the piano series edited by Keith Snell from the Neil A. Kjos Piano Library to introduce them to the serious study of classical music and theory. At this point, I also begin to create my own lesson plans to introduce them to musical concepts and repertoire they otherwise would not encounter in the conventional methods. Read More

I find it extremely rewarding to see students enjoy the music they're playing and accomplish more than they ever thought possible. For this reason, I work with students at a pace conducive to their level. Although, I will challenge their ability, it will be done in such a way where the student can see their progress no matter how big or small that may be. I also encourage students to come with music that they enjoy listening to and would like to play. Read More
