I love teaching piano and sharing my love of music with my students! It’s been a busy year as the studio has grown and I’ve sought to provide the best for my students. 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 may choose from seven different pianos in my studio: I teach on a Yamaha Grand Piano and I also have 5 Yamaha Digital Grand Pianos and a Yamaha P 105 Digital. This allows for siblings, Music Buddies, Parent /Child Lessons to be partially shared and makes 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.
