Mimi is a Toronto-based pianist, collaborator, and music educator.
She enjoys working with students of all ages and believes in the joy of music making. Inspired by the pedagogical approaches of Orff, Kodály, Dalcroze, and Edwin Gordon, singing, movement, and play are always integrated into her lessons. Her teaching philosophy revolves around building a solid technical foundation from a young age, and at the same time fostering one’s musicality through creativity, imagination, and emotional connection.
Mimi holds a Master of Music in Piano Pedagogy and Performance from the University of Toronto. In addition, she holds an ARCT in Piano Performance from the RCM and a Bachelor of Education from OISE. As part of the Concurrent Teacher Education Program, she also received a full-tuition scholarship and was named a University of Toronto Scholar.
