For more advanced students, who have an idea of what they want from their lessons, I will typically play less than with beginner students and focus on listening to the skills and techniques they have already developed.

However, I will assertively make it known if the student shows that they have not been practicing in a supportive way. Read More

I don't believe in anybody being forced to participate in a recital if it wouldn't be enjoyable. Read More
