I excel in teaching Piano Repertoire, Technical requirements, and Music Theory to beginners who want to start playing. My approach emphasizes Finger Placement, training Rythm, and Sight Reading, ensuring a comprehensive learning experience. I’m also a singing tutor. I teach proper breath technique, and exersizes to expand resonance in order to increase the potential in every singer. For each student, I create a different warm up routine. I tailor lessons to individual needs, fostering a deep connection with music. Let's embark on a musical journey together!

In my role as a piano tutor specializing in teaching kids, adults, and beginners, I focus on a technique-driven, expressive, and creative teaching style. By integrating music theory, technical exersizes, sight reading, ear training, performance coaching, and personalized artist development, I ensure an engaging and practical learning experience. I leverage tech tools like online sheet music, metronome apps, and virtual piano apps to create an interactive online learning environment.
