Instruments: Piano, Voice, Music, Keyboard

I teach both classical reading and modern music theory to ensure a well rounded approach. I use the book series by Faber to cover classical reading. I believe Faber books do an excellent job at covering all areas of music. I make sure to keep tabs on my students' practicing as I believe in consistency. The student will be given work that is reasonable to practice once a day for at least 10-20 minutes a day. Read More

My word for private music teaching is, uplifting. The human connection is so key and its helping another person make music thats so amazing and such a joy.
