Instruments: Piano

Ive been teaching piano for the last 20+ years and love opening the world of music to my students. I started learning piano at age ten and continued my music education for 10 years. I was grateful to have mostly one-on one instruction, since this really trained me to be an empathetic teacher, focused on the needs of the individual student. Over the years I've also explored cello and ukulele but my first love has always been piano and Im so happy I can share this love with others. Read More

I approach teaching every student differently and by establishing a personal connection with each student and further letting the student demonstrate how he or she connects to music and why. This way, I am able to assist my students in strengthening his or her connection to music through my learned academic abilities and experiences. Students set goals with my guidance and meet them at their own pace. Students reach and exceed goals with my guidance and become self-motivated to reach their next set of goals. Read More

The approach I take is individualized and utilizes multiple teaching methods. Every student brings unique qualities and different interests and it is my job to find a way to connect those qualities and interests to music. One thing I emphasize is continued learning. If we are working on fundamentals of piano technique I find a way to slowly introduce more concepts that will be developed later on in our lessons. Read More

Before focusing on technical issues of a piece, I like to dive into the styles of composers and explain to the student what sort of cultural background the music comes from. I also try to explain the importance of the theatrical aspect when it comes to performing on an instrument like the piano. I believe it is important to teach students what it means to offer the audience a complete artistic journey and an experience that will blow them away. Read More
