Teaching method
My teaching is student-centered, practical, and encouraging. I adapt each lesson to the student’s goals, focusing on clear fundamentals, applied learning, and steady progress. I emphasize understanding why music works, not just memorizing rules.
Typical lesson:
Lessons usually include a brief check-in, focused work on a specific skill or concept, applying it to real music or exercises, and clear guidance on what to practice next. Sessions are structured but flexible.
What sets me apart:
I combine classical training with modern approaches to composition and contemporary music. I’m especially good at helping students who feel stuck, intimidated by theory, or unsure how to develop their ideas.
Who lessons are for:
Beginner to intermediate students, teens and adults. Suitable for piano/keyboard, music theory, composition, songwriting, and introductory film/game music. No prior theory required.
