Teaching Philosophy
Music is my true passion, and I find immense joy in passing that passion on to the next generation. I firmly believe in the value of hard work and dedicated practice, which extends beyond just learning the piano but is applicable to all aspects of life. When it comes to teaching piano, I place great emphasis on building a solid foundation in both theory and playing technique. It is crucial to lay this groundwork for students to grow and excel in their musical journey. While we focus on achieving these fundamental skills, I also ensure that my students have fun and truly enjoy the process of making music.

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!
