RCM Certified
I LOVE teaching my students!! As a certified RCM piano and theory teacher, I have been helping people of all ages develop their piano skills for over 15 years. My approach is to help design a personal program of study for each student since everyone is unique. The RCM program provides an excellent framework for piano study; however, I also use other methods and programs, depending on a person's needs and interests. Through weekly lessons, performance opportunities at my recitals, and preparation for both piano and theory exams for those who enjoy such challenges, it is my main hope that I instill in my students enthusiasm for playing the piano and developing themselves as musicians.
