Instruments: Violin Viola
Each student is an individual first. Therefore, I create an individualized plan and approach for each student. It's also important to understand and master the fundamentals first, so each student will have a proper route carved out specifically for them in terms of what exactly needs to be worked on and improved. This will also develop self-awareness in the student, so that they can have the opportunity to take ownership of the lesson and their progress on the instrument. Read More

Although I do not teach Suzuki method, I do like to use the Suzuki method books as a resource for teaching younger students. The first piece my school-aged students learn will always be one that they know the tune to already: Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, for example. Once students are comfortable in holding and using the violin, I introduce a little bit of note reading at each lesson. For adult students, understanding of the instrument will come much faster, so I love getting my students to play music with which they can focus on making a beatiful sound while still learning the fundamentals.

For beginning students who are children, I like to start with Essential Elements and then progress to the Suzuki Method books. Later I might supplement this material with etudes and duets or pop song arrangements. For adults, I first determine their priorities and then focus my instruction on what will keep their lessons fun and engaging. Whether the student is interested in playing chamber music with friends, participating in a community orchestra, or just improving their skills so that they can experience the joy of making music, I am happy to tailor the lessons to meet their needs, Read More

For me, the most important thing is not to teach what I know. The most important thing is to teach my students to generate knowledge for themselves. In addition, the change, the result or the progress I seek is that which exerts music through its transforming power of the human being. My style is interactive. The dynamics of the class we make between the student and me. Of course, I lead the class, but the questions are very important. Read More
Instruments: Violin Viola Saxophone
The basic principle behind my teaching approach is to guide each student in a way that would empower them to tackle any musical or technical challenge. My primary goal is to help younger musicians become as independent as possible in their ability to read and interpret any musical text. In a way, this means that I attempt to teach them to become their own teachers who are able to see, hear, and transform the score into the sounds that would be accessible to all people regardless of the language they speak in their everyday life.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Violin Viola Ukulele Music Keyboard Acoustic Guitar
For beginner piano students, I have found the Faber Piano Adventures books to be quite successful. For other lessons, I try to tailor them to each student and find materials that fit with their unique music goals. I have drawn from a variety of music resources, as well as my own knowledge, to help students learn through their own unique way of thinking. I believe it is important to build off of the skills that students already have, and to find ways to support them as they grow in other areas. Read More
