Learning to play the piano should always be a fulfilling and enriching adventure! As a teacher, my objectives are:
• To inspire a love of all kinds of music through the study of piano;
• To develop poise and confidence through performance;
• To encourage students constantly and offer a broad and enriched program of instruction - including theory, technique, keyboard harmony, composition, sight reading and ensemble playing, as well as repertoire and performance skills
• To guide the development of each student’s musical potential to as full a degree as possible.
