I first always start with warm-ups. I believe warm-ups really are the building blocks of technique which is vital to learning piano, voice or any instrument under the sun. Next we look at the level or etude book if we are working with piano or instruments. These songs are short and have a mini lesson/technique hidden in them. These further build the students' ability to play more difficult pieces later. Read More

I generally do not teach directly from a book. I only use them as guides. I always felt that was the lazy way of doing things. A book doesn't know the student.

I take pride in teaching the way that works best for you or your child. Read More

It is important to me that a student both enjoys and learns from their lessons. I strive to make lessons well-rounded. While piano instruction is certainly central to each lesson, I also spend time teaching music theory and ear training.

The ultimate goal I maintain with students is to see them become independent and proficient learners, as well as to see them making music as a regular part of their lives. Read More

Since I teach people of all ages, I have learned that I cannot simply follow one type of lesson structure.  During my lessons I learn about not just the talent a person has but also about the person themselves.  Therefore, each lesson plan is tailored specific to that individual. The individual helps us to find the appropriate balance in our teaching method. When that balance has been obtained, only then can the student reach their fullest potential. Read More
