I have studied piano privately for almost 10 years. My first experience teaching piano was in high-school, when I taught after school lessons.

For example, I have found that my classical training has helped me approach all genres and styles of music. As I continue to teach and learn in different musical territories, I constantly return to the fundamentals. Read More

We move slowly through techniques in order to fully understand posture and how to use your body correctly to not form bad habits that might hurt our playing down the line. Read More
