My teaching philosophy centers on immersion and personalization—helping each student connect deeply with music while developing a solid technical foundation. Every lesson is tailored to the individual’s learning style, goals, and pace. I emphasize hands-on playing and active listening to strengthen ear training, rhythm, and musical awareness. Students learn to understand music from the inside out, mastering core concepts like harmony, chord structure, and phrasing before moving on to more advanced material. I believe technique should serve expression, so we focus not only on accuracy and control but also on tone, dynamics, and creativity. Whether you’re practicing scales or performing full pieces, my goal is to make each session immersive, engaging, and personally meaningful—transforming your piano studies into a lifelong skill and source of joy.
