Instruments: Piano, Music, Keyboard
I have been teaching musicians of all ages and levels ever since my first year of undergraduate in 2016. I have been contracted every summer since then by Summer Sonatina, a piano camp in Bennington, VT, to teach five to six 45 minute lessons a day. While I do teach at all levels, I tend to gravitate more towards serious intermediate-advanced students. I am a classical pianist, but am able to teach any and all styles involving piano or any other keyboard instruments. Read More
Instruments: Piano
It is important for me that a student be passionate about music and what they are learning. I understand that students progress at different speeds than other students. I take each student on a case by case basis and adapt my teaching styles to best suit them so that they may progress while maintaining their passion regarding music. I also ask the students if they have goal pieces or other long term goals that they have in mind, and we work together to meet them. Read More

I write all my own lesson materials focusing on what the student needs to know to play, understand, and enjoy music to achieve their goals. I have used several method books in the past but find them all limited or focused on styles or technique that is not what the student wants or needs to learn. I can teach from any established method if that is preferred, but instead enjoy challenging the student to understand what music is and how music is played on their chosen instrument, not just to read.

Instruments: Piano
I like to make it fun. I teach them the songs and play I for them myself so they can see it played and hear it. Sometimes we watch utube videos of the song being played. I teach the fingering first and the notes along with it. I have contests and games and learning apps. I have recitals to encourage them to practice and prepare. These also give them experience performing in front of a group. Read More
Instruments: Piano, Saxophone, Flute, Clarinet
I have been teaching the saxophone since 2008, to both kids and adults, beginners and advanced players. I always like to incorporate music theory and aural skills into my lessons as I believe those subjects are a must in becoming a well-rounded musician. I do not usually follow a book/method page-to-page but rather adjust the curriculum to each and every student. Each on of my students has different goals and aspiration and it would not be fair to them to force them to follow one book/curriculum. Read More
