My approach to teaching is as individual as each student. It is important that each student learns at their own pace and in their learning style. It is my job to see what the student's best playing is and push them a little past it. I help my students set goals in their lessons, both broad goals of learning pieces, and specific parts of each piece for their weekly practice. Read More

For young learners, lessons are designed to be engaging and fun, incorporating creative exercises that spark curiosity without overwhelming them. Interactive storytelling through music helps these budding pianists connect with the instrument emotionally, setting the stage for lifelong passion rather than mere proficiency. For older students, the focus shifts towards refining technique, exploring advanced repertoire, and developing a nuanced understanding of musical theory.

My love for piano teaching began my senior year of high school, 7 years ago. I enjoy teaching out of my home studio, for I believe it provides a welcoming and encouraging atmosphere for my students. During lessons, I emphasize consistent weekly practice times, music genre variety, theory, improvisation and parent involvement in the lesson plans. Recitals have proven to be very helpful in building the students confidence and awareness of their personal and musical improvement. Read More

I create a lot of my teaching material my self, and I developed at Indiana University a reading method that emphasizes the similarities between the clefs and allows the student to have a global view of the staff. My lessons are very energetic and fast paced, I normally prefer if parents are present in lesson taking notes, and when possible, I even teach the parents before I teach the students, so we have a consistent learning environment at home as well.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practice at your own pace, but put in 30 minutes a day. Play through the exercise at least 3 times before going to the next. Repetition is the key to successful learning. Follow the assignments that are outline and be prepare for the next lesson.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
When your child enjoys listening to music and shows a desire to learn new things and has an inquiring mind, that child will be ready to take on new areas to grow. The child would need to know how to count and how to read at an elementary level.
When will I start to see results?
The results would be visible after the 3rd month of training. By then, the child would be reading his or her notes and should be moving up to level Alfred Level 1A by then. At this level, the child would be playing simple songs. Finger Numbering and the Scales would also be introduced. The child would be introduced to certain teaching aids which will increase their learning. Some of this would involve working with flash cards and the Alfred activity books which include coloring and doing fun exercises. The family is encouraged to participate with their children in these exercises.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I remember my 3rd grade and her name was Ms. Harris. My fellow class members and me were in a large class room and we worked on different subjects. What I remember most about her is that during class she use to gathering us around the piano in a big circle and she played while we sang different songs. She helped me gain a love for music. This is one teacher I'll never forget.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
As a small child, I had no ideal that I could play. I remember that my parents got me a small keyboard with a beginners book. I was picking up some of the notes on my own. I also remember other kids in my neighborhood who had piano's in their homes. I remember being in some of their homes and watching them play. I learned by memory and by ear and played what they played. The neighbors encourage my mother to start me on piano lessons. She got me a nice upright piano which was once a player piano and it was converted to a regular piano. It was an antique when she got it. She assigned me to Mr. Willis E Lee for Piano Lessons. I studied under him for 18 years until he had me worked up an accomplish, advance pianist. I was on college level when I left him.
