Where I Teach:
Ages Taught: 6-60
With over two decades dedicated to the piano, I have passionately contributed my musical talents to our local church. Possessing a distinction from the Associate Board of the Royal Schools of Music reflects my commitment to excellence. Continually advancing my knowledge, I am poised to share insights and collaborate with students of all ages. My enthusiasm lies in not just imparting my passion for music but also aiding others in comprehending and relishing the art, creating a harmonious journey of musical exploration and appreciation.
My background includes instructing students across various age groups, from beginners to those at an intermediate level. I am dedicated to collaborating closely with each student to devise a tailored curriculum that suits their needs best. It brings me joy to assist students in grasping and comprehending new concepts. The teaching process, for me, is a two-way street—I not only impart knowledge but also gain insights from my students. Sharing the wealth of information I've accumulated over the years and passing it on to the next generation of aspiring students is something I find truly fulfilling.
My teaching philosophy centers on navigating students' diverse abilities and learning challenges. For young beginners, I choose the Piano Adventure series, incorporating extra techniques for a solid foundational understanding. Adult learners benefit from the adaptable Adult Piano Adventure series, offering flexibility and catering to varied backgrounds. Understanding each student's distinctive characteristics is crucial; I tailor lessons based on proficiency, challenges, and individual interests, making the learning experience effective and enjoyable. Whether with young beginners or adults, the goal is to provide a solid foundation, aligning lessons with personal tastes, fostering engagement beyond technical skills. In summary, my teaching philosophy prioritizes recognizing unique student needs, ensuring an enjoyable and engaging learning journey.
It brings me great joy to witness students loving music! I strongly believe in allowing everyone to learn at their own pace, and to facilitate this, I establish realistic goals in each lesson. When students accomplish these goals, it not only brings them happiness but also sparks curiosity for further learning. I take the time to understand each student's preferences so that I can tailor my teaching methods to suit their enjoyment, making the learning experience captivating for all. As a music teacher, my goal is to cultivate a warm and welcoming learning environment. I celebrate students' achievements to instill a sense of pride, setting goals based on their abilities and interests. I also encourage ongoing learning beyond our lessons by prompting students to explore music independently. Recognizing each student's preferences is integral to my teaching approach, whether it involves a specific music genre, a favorite artist, or a desire to create their own music. I utilize these insights to make learning enjoyable and meaningful for each student. In my view, learning music extends beyond acquiring technical skills; it's about nurturing a lifelong love for music. By celebrating each student's success, fostering curiosity, and adapting lessons to their preferences, I aim to create a joyful and engaging space for discovering and enjoying music together.
