My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began teaching private lessons part time. I have been consistently teaching students since 2018. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument. 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
Instruments: Piano Voice
Hello! I've been teaching music as long as I've been performing, going back many years. I'm an energetic, supportive teacher and coach, who is focused on each student's needs. Since I've performed worldwide in many different genres, I'm very comfortable working in styles ranging from pop to musical theatre, jazz and blues to classical music. I've taught voice at Berklee College of Music, and several other schools, where I've enjoyed teaching people of all ages, backgrounds and ethnicities. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Ukulele Recorder Keyboard
One of the biggest discoveries I made while studying was that I didnt want to teach those who did not want to learn. I decided to steer myself away from public school music education, and teach in a more relaxed setting, where I would be able to teach what the student wanted to learn, instead of pouring heart and effort into a subject that didnt interest them, and would therefore fall on deaf ears.

I have experience of teaching children and adults for over 30 years and have worked with students in Russia, Canada and USA. My teaching experience started in 1984 in Russia, when I was a college student. Those days I worked part time at music school. Then I taught private lessons in Vancouver, Canada for 6 years. I have been teaching lessons in my home studio in Lutz, Florida since 2009. I love to encourage my students to learn how to play many different genres to have a clear idea that music is endless and they always can find music pieces that they really enjoy playing. Read More

It is really fulfilling for me to see my students use the knowledge they gain from my instructions to improve their playing level. Effective practice habits are agreed upon between myself and each student. Goals cannot be achieved without effective practice habits. Students are encouraged to participate in their community and school music performance activities, enter competitions and do music examinations. These activities build self-confidence, help students to develop a sense of accomplishment and measure their progress. Read More

I teach the student as much as they can absorb while making sure they understand the material.I have never run out of material to teach.I teach proper technique and about scales because every song written is based on scales.I also work on songs with the student at the same time so they can see and understand how the songs and scales are used together.After the basics are understood we move on to songs the student wants to learn.I can also tailor lessons to a students wants or needs if desired.I have been doing this quite a while and understand what works.

Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet French Horn Music
I am an energetic and encouraging instructor who loves seeing students get excited about learning new things. I have B.M. in Acoustic Composition and Electronic Music, 10 years of playing/performing French horn, 5 rigorous years of piano instruction and performance, and a whole lifetime of singing. I wear a lot of hats in my professional life that range from composer to ethnomusicologist (specializing in UK identities and politics in music) to performer (formerly primarily horn but now primarily piano and voice) to music administrator to teacher.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
The great Suzuki taught through the mother-tongue method. He believed that learning music was similar to learning a language. My view aligns with his philosophy. I believe that students are ready to start learning music as soon as they are ready to begin learning how to speak. The process of learning music is very similar to the process of learning language: trial and error is essential, and mapping the meaning of musical tones is a lot like learning to map the meaning of words.
When will I start to see results?
Results are not about speed. The first thing to understand about music is that almost all of the difficulties are due to not understanding something. If you start from the standpoint that music should be easy, then the only task is learning how to make it easy. In this way, music is a series of exercises in self-exploration.
I believe that results can be achieved every time you pick up your instrument. If you try to make it better each time you play, you are learning something. On the other hand, it can take more than a lifetime to master. It ultimately depends upon your goals and your level of determination.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I was very lucky to have good teachers growing up. I started playing the violin before the first grade. My elementary school had a Suzuki program, so I learned how to play by ear for the first four or five years of my training. My elementary school teacher was my first major inspiration because he showed us how good it felt to achieve something.
My private teachers, especially my theory teachers, really solidified my interest in music. In particular, my violin teacher in high school played with a major symphony orchestra, and he showed me what the highest level of musicianship looked like.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practicing effectively is a very subjective experience, but I have a few words of advice. The most important aspect of practicing is realizing that almost every musical issue happens above the shoulders, not below them. In other words, you should approach practicing from the perspective that all difficulties are due to a lack of understanding and not a lack of physical skill. If you start from the assumption that everything should be easy and it is only a matter of figuring out how to make it easy, it is a lot more effective than starting from the standpoint that it should be hard.
