My teaching style is dynamic, depending on my student's skill level. The progress of a student's musical skill is dependent on their willingness to practice and focus on improvement discussed during our lessons. Each student of course is on their own path and pace. Positive reinforcement and setting goals are both important to a student's development. Understanding what the student wants to get out of their music lessons is a vital aspect when it comes to their eagerness and enjoyment to practice and progress. Read More

Orff and Kodály are the requirements throughout my college study, which I integrated into my teaching and found it helpful for developing students' sense of music. I am familiar with the major piano teaching system, including Faber, Bastien, Alfred and Baker.

Learning must be fun and it must improve ones understanding of the subject at the same time if it is to be rewarding. Read More
