Teaching Info
“Practice makes perfect,” however, practice without proper motivation can have a negative impact on students’ commitment to music learning. As a teacher, my aim is to help students decode the complexity of music notation and fingerings, and thus enabling them to find satisfaction in tackling more difficult music repertoire. In addition to providing basic instruction in technique and music notation, I am also able to help students manage performance anxiety by drawing from my own personal experience as a performer. Through the self-discipline and self-motivation developed in music lessons, students will be able to apply this positive attitude to other areas in their life.
