Teaching
Lessons rooted in technique, expression, and a deep connection to the music — for students who want to play with intention.
Pedagogical Approach
Technique in service of expression
A solid technical foundation is never the goal — it is the freedom to say something at the keyboard. My teaching builds that foundation carefully, then turns immediately toward phrasing, color, and the intention behind every note.
Technique
Posture, tone production, and control developed patiently, so the hands never limit the imagination.
Expression
Phrasing, dynamics, and color explored from the very first pieces, not saved for advanced study.
Connection
A deep, personal relationship to the music — understanding what a piece asks and how to answer it.
Who It’s For
From first notes to advanced repertoire
I welcome beginners and advanced players alike, students of all ages. Whether you are sitting at the piano for the first time or refining a demanding program, lessons are shaped around where you are and where you want to go.
- Complete beginners building their first foundation
- Returning players rekindling an old love of the instrument
- Advanced students preparing repertoire, auditions, or exams
- Children and adults — every age is the right age to begin
Lesson Format
How lessons are structured
01
Private, one-on-one
Every lesson is individual and undivided — full attention on your playing, your questions, and your progress.
02
In person or online
Lessons are offered in New York and remotely, so you can study from the studio or from your own instrument at home.
Lesson length and frequency are set together, tailored to your goals and pace — weekly study for steady growth, or a rhythm that suits your schedule.
