Teaching Philosophy
My teaching philosophy is to engage and educate minds, touch hearts, and transform lives through the medium of music. I aim to help my students learn how to play their instruments while having fun and nurturing a strong sense of musicianship. Music, beyond being an art form, is an educational, uplifting, and entertaining experience that enriches lives.
Musical Education
I graduated from the University of the Philippines with a Bachelor of Music degree, major in clarinet.
Special Skills and Trainings
I do clinics and /or band workshops in different schools around Calgary.

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!
