Teaching Philosophy

I am a person who loves to learn, to challenge myself, and to connect with musicians who love to do the same. And just as there is an endless variety of music to listen to and learn from so is there an endless variety of musicians, each with their own tastes, aspirations, and learning styles. It is for this reason that I believe in an individualized and pluralistic approach to teaching.

​

My students will learn to be the best versions of themselves by expanding on their passions and strengths, while challenging their weaknesses and tastes. I will encourage them to always learn more, to approach their study with an open mind, and to strive to be better.
