I come from a classical / jazz background so i am very happy to teach any style that would excite a student. Read More

I will have the have a notebook so that every class we can write down what the student needs to practice and and work on till next time.

I aim to make the student not feel judged. This creates an optimal learning experience, for Ifirmly believe that in order fortrue progress to be obtained, the student willmust notbe afraid to make mistakes.

My teaching style is relaxed and organic. Don't get me wrong, we will work hard! But it will be fun and enriching. I teach my students to appreciate the music they make, and to listen to themselves for what is working well, in addition to what can be improved. At the end of each lesson, the student and I collaborate to make goals for daily practice. Every few weeks, my students and I collaborate on goals for next few weeks and the next few months.

I am also well versed in music therapy and have used it to help people with mental disorders and physical pain achieve some level of relief. Read More
