Teaching Philosophy
The piano and music as a whole is something that is very important to me and has shaped me into who I am today. I find many things essential when it comes to mastering the piano. A liking for the instrument is very important and I believe it is essential for the individual studying to form a close bond with the piano and view it as an old and close friend. Something I do to always keep the passion and joy of playing the piano is that I always play pieces that mean something to me because then I find it much easier to express the feelings in the music and to express my feelings while playing.
Musical Education
Currently I am attending the University of Alberta I am entering my fourth year of studies aiming for a Bachelors in Music in piano studies. I am in performance route
Awards and Distinctions
I have received certificates from the Kiwanis festival (Arts and speech festival) I have achieved honourable mention in the 2024 IPPA Conero International piano competition. I have played in masterclasses for well known pianists.
Special Skills and Trainings
I have been studying piano for almost 13 years now, I started at a young age but my passion didn't really begin until I was a teenager after I had listened to the music of Sergei Rachmaninoff which made me fall fully in love with his music and the piano. I started taking lessons at the Giovanni music school under Greg Mulyk who was formerly a student of Jacques Depres at the University of Alberta. Greg had helped build the basic fundamentals and prepared me for my journey in music which I have learnt to love and cherish as a big part of me.

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!
