I have been around music practically since I was born, as my parents were both professional musicians and our house was constantly filled with the sounds of Mozart, Beethoven and Schubert. I initially decided to study piano and violin performance but changed my focus to education and teaching. As a passionate musician, I have enjoyed playing in symphony orchestras through the years, and I've found that being part of a group of people whose purpose is to produce a beautiful work of art is one of the most enjoyable experiences one can have.

Motivations are different for every student and teacher. I always provide positive reinforcement to known work and effort, but I am also honest when it is obvious effort hasnt been put in to the work assigned. Read More
