I love helping students discover the rich history and unique techniques behind these timeless styles. Whether you’re a school-aged learner or an adult, I tailor lessons to fit your goals and interests. We’ll explore the rhythms, syncopations, and feel that make early jazz and ragtime so special. My teaching approach is hands-on and encouraging, making challenging pieces accessible and fun. I focus on building strong technique while deepening your appreciation for historical piano music. Each lesson aims to develop your musicality and confidence at the keyboard. Together, we’ll bring these classic styles to life.

My teaching approach focuses on making music theory clear and practical. I cover fundamentals like chord progressions, inversions, and harmonic analysis, always showing how these concepts apply directly on the piano. This helps students see theory not as abstract ideas, but as tools they can use every day while playing.
I work well with those preparing for exams and classical performers who want to deepen their understanding of the music they play. Lessons are tailored to each student’s goals, ensuring their theoretical knowledge strengthens their performance skills. We break down complex ideas into simple steps, building confidence along the way.
I also emphasize how theory supports composition and improvisation, giving students a strong foundation to create their own music. My lessons balance technical skills with creative expression. With focused practice, you’ll develop both accuracy and artistry at the keyboard.
Together, we’ll unlock the full potential of your playing by linking knowledge with hands-on experience. My goal is to help you excel and enjoy every step of your musical growth.
