Instruments: Piano
I am a patient and dedicated piano teacher who loves to see my students pleased of their progress and their accomplishments. I was hand-picked by a group of professional piano school directors to begin training at the early age of 6 through the Music School for Gifted Children in Russia. After 11 years of intensive training in piano performance and theory, I went on to complete my Bachelors degree at Music College of Russia. Read More

Instruments: Piano Keyboard
In my teaching I foster a 'singing' approach to the piano. Nothing though makes my heart sing more than to witness a student meet and exceed his or her musical goals. I facilitate this by nurturing a respectful and caring rapport which eventually transmits itself through the instrument as beautiful music. This is enabled (by both parties) through much patience and hard work. I have seen discipline like this translate into better study habits and scholastic success. Read More

My teaching experience dates back to 3 years ago, I was teaching during each summer back home. My goal for teaching is preparing students to be well-rounded musicians and fall in love with music. I would love to encourage students and challenge them to most their potentials. I've been through a lot of struggles with my past experience of my teacher didn't know how to teach me step by step. Because of my past struggles, I would understand my students more. Read More

When I have a beginning student, I provide for them a basic lesson book that includes fun songs and introduction to theory. Each week I go over a song or two with the student and have them play for me the song or songs for their next week's lesson. If the student performs the piece well, they are rewarded with a sticker and can move on. For my more advanced students, I ask them what kind of music they are interested in and they play for me songs from their favorite movie or artist. Read More

Although I began my musical career in the Suzuki method, I intentionally balance the ear-training approach of that method with music theory to create well-rounded musicians. My students will learn how to sight read music, improvize their own melodies, perform in an ensemble (chamber and/or orchestral) and master the art of performance with a solid foundation in music theory. I generally start off with Suzuki repertoire for beginning students, but supplement that with scales, positions exercises, dexterity exercises, and sight-reading material. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Ukulele
It is my duty to help my students understand the excitement that music can bring to their lives and to the lives of others around them while secretly helping my students understand the importance of being good human beings. Every student will work at their own their own pace and goals will be set and reached based on their ability. My philosophy on educating a student in music is to make every lesson as enjoyable as possible. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
i encourage students to practice everyday if possible. Even if a student practices for 15 minutes daily they will notice progress in a few weeks. I constantly remind students to start using a timing source such as metronome and tap their foot to the beat. When music is executed effectively then its time to gradually increase speed.
Vocal students are encouraged to learn the scale and to practice breathing exercises daily if possible.
Rather than pushing for higher notes students should find their natural range and work on strengthening that part of their range. Developing healthy singing habits including diaphragmatic breathing is essential in vocal training.
When will I start to see results?
This depends on the individual. Some people progress faster than others. In my experience I have noticed that the average adult or adolescent student will notice progress in 4 weeks to 1 month. However this is under ideal circumstances if a person practices everyday (or almost everyday). Usually students measure progress by their ability to play their preferred music. Young school age children may develop skills faster with regular practice.
With Vocal students results may be noticed within two or three sessions. Of coarse this depends on many different variables. We are born with our ability to sing. However very few are born with perfect pitch. When a singer learns to breathe with the diaphragm they will notice an improvement right away. However we need to develop these healthy singing habits with regular practice. Our body is the musical instrument when singing which is why we need to "train" our brain and body.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
When a pre school age child (4 or 5 years) expresses a strong interest in playing an instrument this is a sign. Young children care nothing about self discipline so its up to the parents to encourage regular practicing. Every child has unique interest abilities. Although we all see preschool age children on you tube who seem to have mastered an instrument this is extremely rare. We need to impress on young children that playing an instrument is not instant but takes regular practice. Learning a musical instrument at a young age develops the synaptic connections in the brain. This development as well as learning self discipline can help your child in whatever discipline they pursue in the future even if they don't turn out to be a musical prodigy. Musical education can begin from day 1 by exposing children to music.
