Teaching Philosophy
My passion for music has always been a driving force in my life, and I am convinced that it has the power to bring happiness to every soul it touches. To me, joy is an integral aspect of the learning process, especially when it comes to music. My ultimate aim as a teacher is to inspire my students to experience the pure joy of making music and to nurture their creativity in developing their unique musical styles. Through a supportive and encouraging learning environment, I am dedicated to guiding my students on a transformative journey where they can find their own musical voice and unleash the magic of music in their lives.
Musical Education
From the age of nine to twenty-two, I dedicated myself to private piano studies under the guidance of a classically trained teacher from The Royal Conservatory of Music. During this time, I successfully completed the RCM Level 9 practical exam with first-class honors, showcasing my commitment to excellence in piano performance. Additionally, I pursued multiple theory exams, reaching up to Level 10 harmony, further solidifying my understanding of the theoretical aspects of music. These years of diligent study have shaped my passion for piano and ignited my desire to share the beauty of music with others.

Special Skills and Trainings
My musical journey began with weekly piano lessons, where I acquired advanced knowledge about piano and the Royal Conservatory of Music (RCM) curriculum. Under the guidance of my piano teacher, supplemented by exploration at home, I delved into various aspects of music and even started composing my own piano pieces. As my passion for music grew, I embraced teaching, gaining five years of valuable experience. It all started as a substitute teacher for my own piano instructor, and later I had the privilege of teaching at a music school for about one and a half years. Through these experiences, I have honed my teaching skills and further solidified my abilities as a pianist, reinforcing my dedication to both teaching and playing the piano.

Our Promise to You
Getting Started Together
We don't offer free trials, but we do something better - a relaxed 2-lesson getting-to-know-you period. You can pause anytime with just 24 hours notice. After your third lesson, we ask for a friendly 2-lesson heads up if you need to stop.
Life Happens - We Get It
Give us 24 hours notice for any cancellation or reschedule and you'll receive full credit. Planning a family vacation or summer break? Perfect - just let us know a day ahead and we'll pause your lessons.
When You're Under the Weather
If illness strikes with short notice (less than 24 hours), you'll still be charged since your teacher has reserved that time. However, most teachers are happy to offer makeup lessons when possible - they have the final say, especially if last-minute cancellations become a pattern.
Stopping Lessons
Need to take a break? We just ask for a 2-lesson notice:
Weekly lessons = 2 weeks notice
Every other week = 3 weeks notice
Twice weekly = 1 week notice
Summer breaks are different - no notice period needed when you return in the fall!
