I love to share my love for music with not only my student's but as well family members. I teach mostly based on the Suzuki Method. But based on each students needs, I will work with the individuals and use techniques, books, and ideas based on those needs and learning strategies of the students. I hope you have taken the time to read a little more about the Suzuki Method if you are not familiar with it. Read More

While I do like to use method books and curriculum such as Hal Leonard's Essential Elements for Strings and Alfred's Basic Adult Piano Course, I also recognize that every student is unique.

This emphasis also prevents injuries, and I've found it always improves the speed at which we learn. My teaching style is always relaxed. Gradually, as the student advances I learn how much I should expect from them and gently push them to expecting more from themselves over time.
