My experience with teaching started when I was completing my Bachelors degree. I taught both privately from my own home studio as well as a contracted teaching artist at several music schools. For me, teaching has always been one of my biggest passions. I enjoy creating an environment where students can not only grow and develop their skills but also explore the different nuances in music. One thing that is very important to me as a teacher is encouraging students to be consistent in their practice time. Read More

I strongly value theory and technical groundwork, but I also believe in guiding students toward the genres and compositions where they will find their own passion for music. With a solid foundation and an inner drive to keep playing, even beginner musicians can reach goals that may have previously seemed insurmountable.

My approach/style to teaching is quite straight forward. My first question is often how long has the student been studying. Does he/she play another instrument?

Whatever the reason, it gives me great joy to see 'the expression of wonder' when a student achieves his/her goals. Read More

I have had many students on and off over the years. I tend to focus on making music or teaching but not both as I find doing anything well involves 100% committment.

The methods I teach will not only get you progressing but self-progressing and will cover a variety of instruments. Read More
