teaching philosophy
“My journey with the piano started at age four when I began Suzuki piano lessons. I teach using Suzuki’s method because it fosters musicality and the development of personal character through challenging repertoire and parent-child collaboration. While Suzuki emphasizes learning by listening throughout the student’s training, I introduce note reading as soon as it is developmentally appropriate for the student. I gear my teaching to be highly supportive with the understanding that each child is unique and will develop at their own pace.”
