Teaching Philosophy
I am flexible in my teaching approach and I carefully observe the student's learning process in order to come up with the best methods. I am open to different music styles, and I encourage the students to suggest the pieces they would like to learn.
Musical Education
I began my studies at University of Toronto in 1998 but I moved to Montreal after 2 years and completed my Bachelor and Artist Diploma (classical piano) at Concordia University. I later completed most of the courses offered by the Concordia Jazz department and have been playing jazz in my spare time ever since.
Special Skills and Trainings
I have been playing jazz piano in a quartet for a couple of years on and off. I also took jazz vocal lessons at the McGill conservatory and occasionally participate in vocal jam nights. I had some students in the past who wanted to play pop songs and sing at the same time, so I was able to help them with that.

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!
