I have a patient, focused, goal-oriented teaching style derived from pedagogical practices and my own personal experiences as a musician.

I am particularly inspired by the positive reinforcement methods employed by Suzuki, which successfully encourage and motivate any student. 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
