I love to see kids progress in music and become excited about it!! My teaching style is very paced and hands on. If a student isn't getting something, I like to slow it down until they they do. I'm very complimentary and positive during lessons; this helps the student be confident. I also try to give the student a guideline on how to practice and how to pace themselves throughout this process. Read More

As a piano instructor I like to work beginers through a few books that have both a visual and comprehensive element which accomodates various learning styles. I continue with intermediate students teaching them scales, arpeggios, chords, jazz/pop harmony (if they wish to persue that), sonatinas (if they wish to persue that route as well), and other repertoire that they want to learn. From there we focus on the style and genre the student gets more enjoyment playing in. Read More

My teaching philosophy is "exploration as a road to mastery." I help students build a repertoire they can perform. This tends to be a combination of songs they know and love, and songs that I introduce them to. I introduce the elements of music theory in relation to songs. Scales, harmony, and ear training are grasped better, and enjoyed more, once a student has context. My goal is to have each student feel safe in the learning process, while still pushing them out of their comfort zone. Read More

My teaching philosophy is that students blossom at their own pace. Some concepts might be more difficult for some to grasp than others. Students may excel in some areas and struggle in others. I teach sustainable and kind methods of practice and learning. I believe that a teachers true job is to teach a student how to practice. I encourage short and long term goal-setting. I believe that what keeps any musician coming back to the woodshed is enthusiasm. Read More

I am a motivated instructor who wants to get the absolute best out of my students. I attended Berklee College of Music in Boston, MA where I studied jazz piano and songwriting. This was one of the most rewarding experiences of my life, but where I benefited from the most at Berklee was through meeting people. At Berklee, I met my studio band with whom I recorded my first studio album, "Finer Things", which is available everywhere. Read More
