My approach to teaching piano is simple and flexible. I work with the unique learning styles, interests, and goals of each student. If you’re a beginner, I’ll get you started quickly with the basic skills. From there, we’ll explore new music, building your skills along the way. We’ll follow a method book and supplement with other music as well as scales, ear training, theory, performance skills, and more. I’ll be attentive to your needs and interests, and am always open to suggestions.

Get results fast! Using my 3-pronged approach, you'll more in a 1/2 hr than you'd learn in 2 hrs with an ordinary piano teacher. Even if you're a beginner, you'll learn how to read music, play chords, and improvise. Each of these 3 prongs re-enforces each other -- and makes learning fun! You'll be able to progress as far and as fast as you want to. I particularly enjoy teaching advanced students "tricks of the trade" that allow them to become working musicians.
