I love what I do.
I have the privilege of teaching students to love music, to learn how to feel through a piece of music and to be changed by the discipline of this art.
Teaching is my gift and my passion and I feel a high degree of responsibility to my parents who choose me to influence their children in the area of piano study.
To that end, I expect students to work hard, to think, to participate with me in the teaching/learning process. I’m not really a fan of “I don’t know” answers.
Engage.
Listen.
Agree and disagree
and let’s work together to make music fun and interesting.
For me personally, I always want to be better at my craft, at my own playing and practicing, and I expect to foster that desire in a student.
