I cater my teaching style to each student's age, skill level and personality. I have a patient, relaxed teaching style but I'm always ready and willing to push the student as far as they want to go, encouraging them to try their best. Lessons are usually organized into a section focused on technique and music theory followed by a period dedicated to playing songs together, polishing up repertoire and focusing on playing music in real time, together as an ensemble.

This kind of balanced diet will help the student develop rudimental, technical, and reading ability, along with creativity and musicality. Read More

My teaching experience started in college. I was one of the music teachers at Arts For Youth summer camp. It was at AFY that I got my first start to teach children music.

After college I took on private students. Read More
