About Me:
I make it my first priority to understand how each individual student most easily learns, while drawing on very specific and time-tested methods for teaching technique and repertoire. Most importantly, though, I believe that the most conducive environment for learning is one in which, above all, the student is never afraid to make mistakes, and, in fact, welcomes the inevitable hurdles and challenges in discovering the instrument as part of a process self-discovery and musicianship.
