My teaching philosophy is rooted in helping students experience the magic of music. I focus on offering encouragement and expertise while making learning enjoyable and relevant to each student’s interests. I believe in building a strong foundation in music theory, history, and technique, while also connecting lessons to songs students love.

I aim to foster creativity, exploration, and a deeper understanding of music, encouraging perseverance and viewing challenges as growth opportunities. Ultimately, I want to inspire a lifelong love for music and provide the tools for students to thrive both musically and personally.
