I am an experienced teacher, active and accredited member of the Music Teachers National Association (MTNA), and have experience in a variety of settings from standard private lessons to university pre-college faculty positions to summer festivals and intensives. I welcome any and all levels of pianists with the end goal of providing quality music education across the board. Whether you are hoping to go into music professionally or not, I believe that any approach to the keyboard deserves the highest level of teaching on my part. This is why my lessons are not simply 30/45/60 minutes a week but an ongoing partnership where I offer guidance and support as you explore what it is that you want within the wide and wonderful field of music. Whether this entails a professional opinion on an instrument, a safe place to express yourself, or a starting point for your artistic digital portfolio, it is my belief that our community can and will help you achieve whatever it is you set out to do.

I have 7+ years of piano teaching experience specializing in beginner and intermediate students. All ages are welcome. I offer a curriculum customized for each student depending on their needs and interests, composed of note reading, ear training, piano technique, music theory, performance skills, and standard piano repertoire.

Teaching for new piano learner who passion on the music!

I have designed each of my lessons to be like pieces of Legos. Starting from lesson one each lesson fits the next. This eliminates and confusion and gaps in my students knowledge and technical skills. I make everything simple, easy to understand and apply.
I define Music as the science or study of sound in relation to melody, harmony and rhythm. Once I get my students to understand each of these elements and how they work individually and together sky is the limit.
