My approach to teaching piano centers around making the material accessible and easy to understand. This can involve using a variety of techniques such as breaking down complex concepts into smaller pieces, using analogies, and providing practical examples to illustrate the material. I also believe that it's important to encourage students to actively participate in their own learning process. This can include asking questions, practicing techniques, and engaging in creative problem-solving exercises. Read More

Im a working pianist, educator, music director, and accompanist. My greatest passion however is teaching, and I try to weave that into every part of my musical life and work. I graduated in the spring of 2022 with my bachelors in music from Rollins College in Winter Park Florida, studying under Dr. Gloria Cook.

Before each class I have my full lesson prepared and can use a standard musical instruction book if the parent would like or if I feel that it is necessary. Read More
