My teaching philosophy is comprised of the following tenets:
- Identify students' abilities and goals.
- Structure individualized approaches & repertoire based on optimal pathways to learning; build on each student's strengths while redressing lacunae.
- Implement organic development of skills and knowledge; advance keyboard technique in close symbiotic relationship with music theory, analysis, and history.
- Empower independent study through self-awareness, critical thinking, and listening comprehension.
