I approach each student as an individual. Some students take things slow and steady, while others I can barely fit enough into their weekly lessons to keep them happy, and either way is just fine. My ultimate goal as a teacher is to make myself obsolete - I aim to teach my students how to learn, how to be critics of themselves for more effective practice time, and eventually, how to either need a teacher that can take them to more advanced levels, or to play without a teacher.

As a viola teacher, my teaching style is characterized by a combination of technical precision, artistic exploration, and personalized mentorship. I believe in nurturing a supportive and encouraging environment where my students can thrive and develop a lifelong love for music. I also strive to inspire creativity and musical expression. I encourage my students to delve into the emotional depths of music and explore different interpretations. Together, we analyze the phrasing, dynamics, and nuances of each piece, aiming to create performances that resonate with both the player and the audience. Read More

I have been teaching privately part time for the past 4 years working with students in grades K-12. My main goal in lessons is for my students to not only succeed at a new skill once, but to be confident in their ability to repeat their success in practice at home and at our next lessons. I encourage positive feedback and positive "self-talk" as a means of boosting self-efficacy. I think an important part of learning is goal setting and outlining specific, achievable steps to reach that goal so that progress can be tracked and the process of learning can become less ambiguous.

I got the chance to be instructed by great minds like Viktor Uzur (known worldwide for the Richter/Uzur Duo) and work along side talented students like Fan Ya Lin (pianist with a professorship at Julliard).
