My teaching experience dates back to my college days. When I was in college I had the opportunity to student teach students from Pre Kindergarten to 12th grade.

I have an eclectic style of teaching and may use different methods for different students. I want my students to be able to understand music and be able to play long after our lessons are over. I discuss theory and harmony as we work on different pieces. I usually end lessons by improvising along with students, or doing ear training games, which both children and adults love. Read More

There is nothing I love more than watching my students meet their singing goals and further their love of music. I meet all of my students where they are, and work with whatever skill set they have, to help them become the musicians they dream of being. I do this by encouraging regular practice sessions, and assigning music that they are passionate about learning. I always acknowledge their accomplishments, big or small, because they all matter and are all a crucial part of becoming better. Read More

I am a passionate and motivated instructor who loves working with students and sharing my love of music. In 2004, I graduated from Hartford University with a Bachelor of Arts degree in Piano Performance. In 2006, I graduated from Manhattan School of Music with a Masters degree in Piano Performance. Performing all over the world has been one of the greater experiences of my life as a musician, and I've had the opportunity to play both at the Zinc Bar in New York, as well as touring the East Coast as several performances as the pianist in the Artie Shaw and Cab Calloway Orchestras.

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Music

I am lucky enough to be associated with this thing called music. As a kid, I was introduced to the piano by my dear mother, a pipa player (traditional Chinese guitar), who has always admired western musical instruments. I was never too serious until my teenage years when I met several teachers and friends (to this day) who have shown me how to read music properly and what it means to read it properly. Read More
