For the beginning student, I typically suggest a collection of specific studies from an array of sources, some designed simply for technique and others for the development of musical understanding. Naturally, these depend on the individual and their needs. I am most dedicated to facilitating the needs of each individual student and providing them the ability to express their musical ideas clearly and easily. For more advanced students, I will focus on honing technical proficiency and challenging them with new repertoire, preparing them for new musical opportunities, such as youth orchestras, chamber music, recitals, and competitions to further their growth.

My students have ranged from beginners to advanced, and I have taught children from age 5 through adults in their 80's. Throughout my classroom teaching years, I have always maintained a private studio. Read More

My methods of course depend on the experience level of the student I'm teaching. For beginners, I typically have them work through the first Suzuki book and then go from there based on what it seems they're interested in. Beyond that, specific repertoire is going to be different for each student. I believe strongly in the importance of learning to read music and learning the basics of music theory as soon as possible in a student's development, so I spend some lesson time on that. Read More

Nothing is more rewarding to me than seeing a student develop a genuine passion for music! I believe that every student learns best when they are progressing at their own pace. To support this, I set realistic, individualized goals at each lesson, helping students build a strong foundation while acknowledging each step forward. Celebrating these accomplishments fuels their desire to learn and makes them eager to dive deeper into their studies. Read More
