Teaching Style

“My teaching philosophy is that a lesson should be tailored to the student’s individual interests and goals. I like catering to each student’s musical taste and meeting them exactly where they are at. In addition, I make every student improvise, seeking to foster creativity and free expression at the piano. This is built around an understanding of music theory, which she incorporates into each lesson.”
