I have a patient, focused, goal-oriented teaching style derived from pedagogical practices and my own personal experiences as a musician. Studying with me will help you cultivate technique that is fine and precise, develop a deeper appreciation for music, and most importantly, help you perfect the art of practicing smart.

We will be going through a fairly even distribution of scales, etudes, and repertoire that I will carefully select based on your current abilities. Read More
