I've had the opportunity to teach Ensemble music in a High school for students between 12-16 years old. Also did master classes for adults looking into genres like Boleros, Vals and Classical Music (Nylon Guitar).

I've also found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the piano and motivate them to practice and continue to learn. Read More

I began teaching piano when I was 16 years old and I am very fortunate to be able to share the passion that my teacher shared with me. It's crucial to me that students are learning the pieces that they wish to learn and support each students personality so they are progressing while having fun. I also make a point of sharing little anecdotes and fun facts from world history, literature, science, and nature, as music is embedded in all of those things. Read More

Very flexible, friendly, understanding and supportive teacher. I encourage my students to play duets with me and their friends (if applicable) and participate in recitals.I also try to teach them basic music theory unless they object, and help them to understand music, learn more about the history of music, and related matters. Some of my students take Royal Conservatory of Music tests regularly.
