About your music teacher
I’m a passionate music educator with over fifteen years of experience nurturing musicians of all ages and backgrounds. With a Bachelor’s degree in Music, I’ve dedicated my career to sharing the beauty and discipline of sound in its many forms. My teaching embraces a wide range of genres including Baroque, Jazz, Rock, and Contemporary styles, allowing students to explore both classical foundations and modern expressions. I focus on music theory, performance, composition, and improvisation—helping learners understand not only how to play, but why music moves us. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of mentoring students for live stage performances, music competitions, and advanced academic pursuits in music. Many of my students have grown to perform confidently on stage, compose their own pieces, and even begin teaching others. I believe every student has a unique musical story, and my goal is to guide them toward finding their own sound and confidence through consistent practice and creative exploration. Teaching Philosophy: I believe music education should go far beyond technical mastery—it should ignite imagination, emotion, and individuality. My classroom is a space where curiosity thrives and mistakes are seen as stepping stones to growth. I combine structure with encouragement, tradition with innovation, and discipline with joy. Each lesson is tailored to meet the learner’s goals, whether that means preparing for graded exams, building performance skills, or simply developing a lifelong relationship with music. For me, teaching music is not just about creating musicians—it’s about inspiring human connection, self-expression, and the courage to communicate through sound.

Music lessons at a glance
My music methodology is built on the belief that learning music should be both structured and inspiring. I combine traditional techniques with contemporary approaches to create a dynamic and engaging learning experience. Every lesson begins with a focus on strong fundamentals—music theory, rhythm, notation, and ear training—while gradually incorporating creativity through improvisation, composition, and live performance. I design lesson plans around each student’s goals, learning pace, and preferred genres, ensuring that every learner feels challenged yet comfortable. Classical discipline helps build precision and control, while modern genres like Jazz, Rock, and Contemporary styles encourage freedom of expression. Practical application is central to my teaching—students perform, compose, and collaborate to truly internalize what they learn. I also emphasize critical listening and interpretation, helping students understand the emotional and cultural context behind every piece. My aim is not only to teach how to play music, but how to feel, think, and live it—turning each session into a meaningful journey of sound, creativity, and self-discovery.
