Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums
I am a versatile and engaging musician with 14 years of experience performing and composing in a wide variety of genres: Jazz, rock, hip-hop, folk, classical, electronic, electroacoustic, avant garde, ambient, soul, punk, etc. This is a resource that has proven to be invaluable in teaching students with a wide range of interest to help them develop both in technique and in finding their own voice on their instrument. In the past 7 years I have completed a Bachelor's Degree at McGill University in Montreal (Performance Jazz Drums), have performed at international festivals in Toronto and Montreal, have toured with various projects, scored two short films, and composed and produced two albums of my original music. *Note: I teach drums at all skill levels - piano and guitar from novice - intermediate.

I try to cater my lessons to the interest of my students. If a pupil’s passion for music can be harnessed, then developing musical skills can be a simple process. I have a wide variety of material I teach from, including Ted Reed’s syncopation, George Lawrence Stone’s Stick Control for the Snare Drummer and basic piano literature. I also use music selected by the student to create custom lessons. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Cello Viola Fiddle Music Keyboard
I firmly believe that students are best served when their teacher knows and cares about them. This attitude toward teaching helps me to tailor instruction to students' needs rather than following a prescriptive method. I usually begin lessons with a brief, informal conversation where we discuss the student's week and talk about things that are important to them. A strong and appropriate student-teacher relationship is the bedrock for successful goal-setting, accountability, and, of course, fun in private lessons! Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Double Bass
I love transfering my love of music to students. I help them achieve their goals at a challenging, yet doable pace. When parts of the music are too difficult, I always break them down into their simplest possible parts. I am not strict, however I am realistic, and let students know that it is critical that they practice so that they can improve. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I start beginners off with Frances Clark, The Music Tree Series. I also use the Faber-Faber Piano Adventures and Helen Marlais' Succeeding at the Piano. As students progress, I focus on repertoire pieces issuing from the baroque, classical, romantic, and modern eras as to introduce students to the history of music. Important components of home-practice include sight-reading and technique-building exercises. I also encourage sight-singing as a way of developing the student's ear. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
My favorite moments while teaching is the light bulb moments, for these to occure lessons are goal based and created around the students level of exsperiece, future goals, and personal goals. In the first lesson we set mini goals for each lesson, medium goals for the month, and large goals for something we want to work towards or a up and coming competition. I use a positive environment to help student feel good about their accomplishments, but also have them discover areas of improvement by recording them or asking them what they feel they did well and what they feel they need to work on.

Instruments: Violin Viola
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
Certainly! I started out playing the violin as a child, just like many students do. It's a wonderful instrument that I enjoyed playing for many years. However, as I continued to explore the world of classical music, I became more and more fascinated by the rich and warm tones of the viola. I was drawn to its unique sound and the unique role it plays in orchestras and chamber music ensembles.
So, I decided to give the viola a try, and I instantly fell in love with it. The transition from violin to viola was a natural one for me because many of the skills and techniques I had developed on the violin were transferable to the viola. It allowed me to explore a different range and timbre of music, and I found it to be a rewarding and fulfilling experience.
I believe that having experience with both the violin and the viola allows me to provide a more comprehensive and well-rounded education to my students. It also allows me to better understand and address the unique challenges and opportunities that each instrument presents. So, while I started with the violin, my journey into playing the viola was a decision driven by my passion for music and my desire to share that passion with others, including your child.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Yes, music definitely runs in my family. I come from a rich musical background, and both of my parents have played significant roles in shaping my musical journey.
My mother was a classical music teacher, and her passion for teaching and music was truly inspirational. She introduced me to the world of classical music at a young age, fostering my love for the violin and viola. Her dedication to her students and her deep understanding of classical music greatly influenced my own teaching style.
On the other hand, my father was a conductor and a college professor of piano. His expertise in orchestral music and piano performance exposed me to a wide range of musical experiences. His guidance and insights into conducting techniques have been invaluable in my own musical development as well as in teaching my students.
As for my brother, he is a talented musician, but he leans more towards the jazz genre. He plays a different instrument and has explored the world of improvisation and jazz theory. While our musical paths have diverged somewhat, we still share a deep appreciation for music and often find common ground in our musical discussions.
So, in short, music is a fundamental part of our family heritage, and the love for classical music has been passed down through generations, thanks to the influence of my parents and the musical discussions and experiences shared with my brother.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I'm happy to share my journey with you and your child. Becoming a professional musician, especially in the classical field, is often a combination of gradual development and defining moments. For me, it was a bit of both.
I started playing the violin and viola at a young age, just like your child. Initially, it was a hobby and a source of joy. I loved the sound of the instruments and enjoyed practicing and performing. As I continued to study and grow as a musician, there were moments along the way that solidified my passion.
One of those defining moments was when I had the opportunity to perform with a professional orchestra as a young student. The experience of playing alongside seasoned musicians and making beautiful music together was incredibly inspiring. It showed me the possibilities of what I could achieve if I pursued a career in music.
Another important factor in my decision was the guidance and support of my parents, music teachers and mentors. They saw my potential and encouraged me to continue my studies, guiding me through the rigorous training required to become a professional musician.
So, while my love for music started early and grew gradually, it was these moments and the influence of my mother and father, and my mentors that helped me make the decision to pursue a career in classical music. It's a journey that requires dedication, passion, and continuous learning, and I'm excited to be a part of your child's musical education as they embark on their own unique path in the world of classical violin and viola.
