My main objective is to steer the pupil towards a place of autonomy so they are able to solve music related problems on their own and develop the intrinsic ability already present within themselves.

Instruments: Piano
I started teaching my son since he was 5 years old and have helped him win several piano competitions throughout his teenage years. For the past ten years or so, I have been teaching at private music schools, community music schools and my home studio.

Consistency helps the student improve and get more comfortable with the act of singing. Read More
