Each student is different from the other, so every lesson will be tailored to their skill level and wants. I like to set goals. For me it keeps it interesting, and it makes me work hard to achieve them. My goal as a teacher is to keep students interested and challenged. Each lesson will end with realistic goal for the next lesson. The very first lesson will talk about long-term goals and as well as weekly goals so that it gives the students incentive to practice and work hard. Read More

In my studio, I have found that the greatest results from consistent thoughtful practice. My experience of performance and practice have helped me develop a method that has proven successful in my studio.I was taught in the Russian piano school and have found that the incorporation method of performance, technique, theory, and music history give a well-balanced foundation for creative development of musicians. I have worked with students from age 3-65 and all levels from beginner to advanced and found this method works the best. Read More

My goal as a private educator is to find what each of my students enjoys about learning music. When sequential learning is introduced, along with material that motivates, this encourages dedication and progression. I believe most students learn best when they feel they have input in some of the learning process. My students are also encouraged to participate in competitions and recitals. Having a goal to work towards aids in accomplishment and motivation. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Viola Clarinet
I have been teaching lessons since High School. Back then, I mostly taught beginner students on the Piano. Since College, I have expanded my teaching repertoir to include Piano, Organ, Violin, and Viola. For the past 7 years, I have been teaching and instructing my students on the best practices as blossoming musicians. Nothing can make you a better musician than practice and consistency. No matter what genre of music you are interested in, you must practice.There will always be times were you have toforce yourself to practice (because it won't always be fun), but the gains are never dull.It has been my experience that those students who apply themselves diligently, love to play the songs that they have mastered over and over again.

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
The best way to know whether your child is get ready to start the lesson is let him/her try to having one lesson. We will never know their interest until they have tried. I have taught many young students, and their parents cannot clear know whether their children love music. Because they don't have many opportunities get close to learning it professionally, so why not let them try to have one lesson?
Some parents might consider that their children are too young to have lesson, and they are afraid that if they will have pressure of having lesson. My answer is no, because one of the most important goal in my lesson, is to let my students enjoy the music and lesson. I will do my best to help them learning knowledge in a happiness lesson mode.
When will I start to see results?
Actually, after each lesson you would have progress, while which is hard to see distinctively. For beginners, when you have learned the basic theory knowledge and several short pieces, from then, you will find you have a obvious progress and you can see your results. This process generally need to take two months for young students, (around one month for adults). If you are an intermediate or advanced student, to see the results usually depends on how long you can completely learn a new piece. Because for every new piece, finishing learning all the notes is just the beginning part, focusing on the all emotional expression is the rest part, that students have to spend more time working on, like dynamic changes, right rhythm, the control of melody lines, and so on. After you working on a new piece, you will find you have a great progress whatever from your technique skills aspect or understanding to the music.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
First of all, knowing well the whole new piece can help students learning it easily. Listening the piece with reading the score as much as you can before you start practicing will help you be familiar with all the notes, and avoid play the wrong notes.
I would like to encourage students set up the realistic goals for practicing, and make them into many smaller steps to reach. For example, if you are starting learning a new piece, firstly, you need to thinking how long do I need to finish learning it completely. And then, give yourself an answer, such as one week, which can be regarded as a realistic goals. Therefore, you have to divide this piece into several parts to learning and practicing. Persisting in practicing one part daily, (just thinking each part as the smaller steps) which will be the most easy and practical way to complete your new piece.
