I can help you develop your repertoire and refine your skills with a variety of classical composers to learn from

In my 7 year musical career, I have become a skilled sheet music reader, song interpreter, and can play in key well with other musicians.

These three components of musicianship are essential for the growth of anybody starting out. Becoming comfortable in these areas will inspire students to continue growing their musical capabilities.

My prices are lower than what you may find in the area because while I am very good at music and have 7 solid years of diverse experience, I feel I can provide the most benefit in the beginning stages of the students learning path, so cheap prices my make up for a lack of schooling or professional training; but I have given many lessons before and my students have all been very successful!

Being taught by me includes sight reading basics first and then moving onto playing popular songs and playing in key. I am very comfortable teaching any age.

I am a young professional myself and would be eager to teach you or your family member!

I have been profoundly classically trained in music for over 12 years. Started as a tutor at the age of 16 and kept going till this day, for over 11 years now.

For me it is very important students gets to feel comfortable at my lessons, as in this way they can focus better, have more fun and learn faster how to hit their goals in the musical field.

I am patient as I take my time to work with you through the different levels. I provide the student with positive reinforcement at each level of performance. I also encourage my students to practice and always look forward to playing for guests and at recitals as this boost their confidence level.

I have been teaching piano since 2014 after graduation from college with a Bachelor's in Management and Piano Minor.
