TEACHING PHILOSOPHY
My goal is to train up good sightreaders and technically solid players to be their personal best at their level of ability. I emphasize musical literacy, transfer of learning and problem solving skills that will establish and promote independent learning and life long person growth and a desire for learning as well as a life long love for music and the arts.

TEACHING PHILOSOPHY
While I set high standards for students, I also believe in enriching their lives with the joy of music. I never had an adult tell me "they wished their mother would have let them quit". I challenge myself to find ways to inspire students to want to continue lessons even in today's busy society so that one day they too will not regret quitting.

TEACHING PHILOSOPHY
Every student is talented, everyone has a gift. Sometimes the talent is easy to recognize since it is visible on the surface. Often the talent rests beneath the surface. My task as a teacher is to uncover this talent and make it flourish.

TEACHING PHILOSOPHY
My goal as a teacher is, first of all, to make the student appreciate and love music, to teach beginners how to play piano and to improve one's skills in order to grow as a musician regardless of age. My teaching strategy is by having high standards to achieve the maximum result depending on student's level and intentions. To give knowledge of theory basics,skills of technique, sight reading, memorization and the most important -PERFORMING. Because performing is the best part and in the end what we all want is to play piano and enjoy our developed skills.

TEACHING PHILOSOPHY
Learning to read music and play the piano stimulates the child's brain as no other activity they have yet faced. I encourage children to solve problems on their own with the information they have, in effect teaching them how to work on their own. Children find this approach interesting and challenging, as well as beneficial to their school work habits.

TEACHING PHILOSOPHY
While I stress the necessary foundations of playing the piano - technique, theory and good practice habits - I always remember that the ultimate goal is to create a positive learning environment which allows the individual to develop to their highest level so the enjoyment of creating music is never lost. I do not want the love of music-making to disappear under the stress of overly ambitious goals. However, I will "push" the student to work to their best level to help them learn not only the craft of playing the piano, but the art of making music and creating memories at the keyboard.
