However, that's an intimidating road to stare down, when you're at the start! But the journey of learning music is all part of the fun. To help make this more palatable, I like to get to know the student a bit more, to understand what it is that they enjoy listening to, and why they like it. By incorporating material that they enjoy, and by keeping the environment of the lesson fun, safe, and comfortable, it's easy to give people the tools they need to really enjoy playing their instrument to their fullest potential.

I have been teaching for over thirty years. I have enjoyed every minute of it. I feel very fortunate to have a job that really doesn't feel like work because I enjoy it so much. I have taught in many music stores over the years. I have taught group classes as well as private lessons. I have put on recitals for my students. When I teach a student I teach a little differently for every student because every student is different and everyone has a different ability. Read More

I only teach Intermediate and Advanced students, and my method really depends on the particular student. I don't believe in a single, "core curriculum" for piano-playing. It really depends on the students' goals, strengths/weaknesses, etc. For my beginning intermediate students, I usually give a selection of little pieces to learn by Bach, Schubert, and Schumann to start developing their ear and sense of rhythm/musicality. I also highly encourage my students to learn new things constantly so that they get more comfortable learning new music fast! Read More

Instruments: Piano

I love music and I love teaching! I took piano lessons as a child, was in a band as a teenager, and began giving piano lessons in my 20's. I teach all styles of music, sight-reading, music theory and ear training. For those students more more interested in learning pop or jazz, I give special attention to chords and "lead sheet" playing. I have worked with many singers to teach them how to accompany themselves on piano. Read More
