"I am a recent graduate of UCSD with a master's degree in international relations, and a B.A. in economics and music from UCSD as well. As my academic background suggests, I am interested in many different subjects (if I could have also studied history, physics and literature, I would have!). I have taught music lessons for over a decade to students of all ages and musical backgrounds.

Finally, my teaching experience has taught me the value of patience, and that if you are patient ...
