Piano Instruction
My teaching is focused on defining artistic goals and the cultivation of musical excellence. Emphasis is on developing effective practice habits, self awareness, musical insight and healthy technique. The unique bond between teacher and student is the key to success.
Pedagogy
I offer specialized consultations to teachers of piano, all in the spirit of collegiality. Emphasis is on the practical and psychological challenges of artistic teaching, and the specifics of technique. I provide younger, less experienced teachers an opportunity to broaden their teaching skills and gain a strong pedagogical foundation.
Career and College Counseling
The focus is on the challenges of gaining entry to appropriate training programs, regardless of instrument or current skill level. The audition experience, resume preparation and a realistic assessment of ability and potential for long term development are part of the process.
