My name is Ms.Inna.
I hold a Master’s Degree in Music Education, a Master of Arts, and a Master of Music, all officially evaluated and accredited by World Education Services. I am also certified by the Ontario College of Teachers (OCT) and am in Good Standing. With over 30 years of experience in music education, I am the Founder and CEO, Music Director, and Piano, Voice, and Theory Teacher at Sparks Music Academy, Toronto Campus.
My greatest joy is witnessing the growth and transformation of my students. I deeply value their uniqueness and take pride in designing customized, engaging, and student-centered lessons that help them unlock their full musical potential. I believe in nurturing creativity, confidence, and discipline through a balance of technique, expression, and theoretical understanding.
Known for being fun, creative, and passionate, I bring a wealth of performance and teaching expertise to every lesson. I work personally with each student, fostering a trusting, supportive, and inspiring environment where they feel safe to explore and flourish. Many of my students have excelled in RCM examinations, music festivals, competitions, and post-secondary music programs, and I continue to mentor them toward their individual goals—whether professional or personal.
My mission is not only to teach music, but to ignite a lifelong love for it, guiding each student to discover their unique voice and live their passion through music.
I offer:
- Private lessons in piano, voice, and theory for all ages and levels.
- RCM exam preparation from Preparatory A to ARCT.
- Individually tailored lesson plans to suit each student’s goals, strengths, and learning style.
-Performance coaching for recitals, festivals, competitions, and auditions.
- Training in sight reading, ear training, composition, and improvisation.
- Preparation for university music programs, musical theatre, and public performances.
- Opportunities to participate in seasonal concerts, multicultural music festivals, themed events, and community outreach.
- A warm, inspiring, and professional atmosphere where creativity and discipline work hand in hand.
I teach every student personally and design each lesson with purpose, passion, and precision. My goal is to guide students in discovering their musical voice, excelling with confidence, and experiencing the joy of meaningful progress.
I envision my future students as curious, passionate, and open-hearted individuals who are eager to explore their musical potential. I see them growing into confident, expressive musicians who not only master technique and theory, but also learn to communicate emotions, tell stories, and connect deeply through music.
I hope to guide students who are committed to learning, willing to embrace challenges, and excited to discover their unique voice. Whether they pursue music professionally or personally, I want them to carry the discipline, creativity, and joy they experience in lessons into every part of their lives.
Above all, I see my future students as co-creators in the journey — individuals who inspire me as much as I inspire them. Together, we’ll build a strong foundation, celebrate progress, and make music a lifelong source of growth, expression, and happiness.
