Philosophy of Teaching.
Build trusting relationships with students so that they are able to grow and pursue their love of piano. Allow students the opportunity to become life long musicians, whether they choose music as a career or wish to simply enjoy piano for a lifetime. After years of teaching traditional piano, I met too many parents who told me that they had years of piano and "can no longer find Middle C." What a tragedy! Over the past eleven years, I've sought to remedy that situation. The results have been amazing. Most of my students have been with me 5-9 years and will enjoy piano for a lifetime. Relationships with a diverse group of piano teachers around the world has enabled me to expand my own joy and knowledge of teaching students of various ages and musical preference. For every hour I spend teaching, I spend at least 2-3 hours writing my own music and teaching materials, researching the best and latest from other teachers, organizing new music and games and making lesson plans. In addition to classical, jazz, music theory with practical application at the keyboard and improvisation, students in piano band also enjoy drum lessons with Mr. Al.

Online lessons available when students are too sick to come to piano but well enough for a lesson that day. All students were online at the beginning of Covid and each returned to the studio when they were comfortable.
I teach on a Yamaha Grand Piano and I also have 5 Yamaha Digital Grand Pianos for siblings, Piano Buddies, Parent /Child Lessons. Partially shared lessons and make the best use of lesson and practice time. Music for Boys ... Super Heroes!, The Adventures of Fearless Fortissimo, Piano Books for Boys, Read the Comic, Play the Music. I loved it so much, I immediately purchased My Piano Teacher Thinks She's a Ninja. This is not the music I was forced to endure as a beginning piano student.
