Teaching Philosophy
My goal of teaching is to help my students learn to play and love music, and become better humans. Music is spiritual. It reflects a person's inner soul. I enjoy teaching students of all age. I learn about my student on every lesson and develop different strategies to teach according to the student's ability. "Do not only practice art, but get at the very heart of it; this it deserves, for only art and science raise men to the God-head." - Ludwig von Beethoven

Special Skills and Trainings
I have taken masterclasses with many prominent pianists of our days and have learn about their different pedagogy in piano playing. On top of this, I’m an orchestral conductor who always rehearse with many different musicians, I’m experienced in giving effective instructions in order for musicians to produce the ideal sound, and this is not so much different from teaching piano.
Lessons on an online platform

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!
