Piano Lessons

With over 10 years of teaching experience and a master’s degree in piano performance, I take a systematic and well-rounded approach to piano education. Lessons combine technique, music reading, theory, ear training, and musical expression—helping students become confident and independent musicians.
Why Learn With Me?
My Teaching Philosophy
I believe good piano playing begins with natural movement, relaxation, and a strong technical foundation.
From the beginning, I help students understand how to use their body, arms, wrists, hands, and fingers naturally and efficiently. This creates greater fluidity, control, and confidence at the piano—and gives students the freedom to shape the tone and expression the music requires.
Alongside technique, I develop strong note reading, music theory, and chord understanding, giving students the tools to eventually learn and explore the music they want to play independently.
Most importantly, I want students to sing through the music, breathe with the phrases, listen, and truly connect with what they are playing. Lessons are tailored to each student and may include technique, repertoire, sight-reading, ear training, theory, and musical interpretation.
My goal is not simply to teach students how to play the piano, but to help them understand their instrument, express themselves through music, and become confident, independent musicians.
