Putting a smile at the end of each lesson is my teaching goal!
I have been teaching classical piano for more than 20 years. My education background includes Master degree from UCLA. Currently I am a piano judge for Music Teacher's Association of California (MTAC).
My students regularly share their music at school, recitals and senior homes. Students also have the opportunity to take the Certificate of Merit (CM) or National Guild piano evaluations.

I have played a wide variety of repertoire in classical piano from Bach, to Beethoven to Frederic Kuhlau in recitals in the past six years. I also write music in classical piano and can help students mainly with technique and expressiveness when playing.

In classical piano lessons we can explore works the great works of the classical composers. My favorites are Bach, Beethoven, and Debussy. I am always happy to assign repertoire but welcome students bringing in a piece they'd like to learn.

On every 4th Wednesday evening, I offer a free monthly FaceTime performance class for all students, all levels of study beginning in September 2020. To engage fully during weekly remote sessionS, I encourage all piano, guitar and composition students to set up a dedicated music learning space in their homes.

I bring a sense of fun to each lesson while seeking to connect with each student’s innate musical ability. My approach is individualized for each student. I also seek to cultivate music as a regular family activity within the home. To that purpose, I’ve composed engaging piano duets based on familiar musical phrases which students can play with a recorded backing track or with other family members.

With young beginners, budding music pros and dedicated music lovers, I incorporate theory, technique and repertoire building in every piano and composition lesson. I will nurture your creative expressivity and encourage you to practice daily. Composition lessons also range in
