The first lessons usually pass by understanding the student's perception of music and defining the basic building blocks of music. The piece selections progress in parallel with the person's technique and knowledge of music theory. I find the entrance to the methods considered essential in classical piano education suitable for children and young people preparing for exams. adults can freely choose what they want.With Beyer and Czerny books, which are considered as the beginning works of classical piano education, we prevent the possibility of the student's being overwhelmed with more than one source while improving the musical notation perception and technique.

More than a decade ago I began giving music lessons in both private and group formats. It was an unexpected "diversion," but a very natural fit! It brings me great joy to see a student enjoying the guitar, advancing on the instrument, and entering into that "fellowship of guitarists," which means everything from jamming with their friends, to being able to learn any song they want, to understanding a meme about the G string always going out of tune.

I believe playing an instrument "well" requires lots of understanding of details about the instrument and the music. A music score is an instruction on how and which note to play and it's the performer's creativity that embellishes the result(performance). I have been teaching my students piano lesson with music theory to learn how to read the score and understand all the details(rhythm, note, sound, articulations, form, etc.) so that they not only learn how to play the instrument but also learn about general knowledge of music that they can apply to any instrument or other styles of music.

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! I strive to find an individual approach to each student and it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace.

So I teach my students how to use the time allocated for personal practice more effectively and how to develop good practice habits. Read More
