Experience
I have been tutoring privately since 2005 with students aged 8 (yes, young kids nowadays get tutors!) to 18 and older. My teaching philosophy prioritizes an upbeat, encouraging environment. I want my students to understand concepts - rather than simply memorizing - to ensure they can continue as independent scholars! As a musicologist, my work has been shared at international conferences and published in academic journals. My background as a pianist has brought me around the globe as a performer and I also enjoy teaching piano to children and adults.
