Why I Teach Piano
I’ve always found that listening to the music I love brings me great joy. It continues to inspire and motivate me to grow and develop my own musicianship. When I play piano, I feel energized, nourished, and joyful. My life becomes more vibrant. This is my way of sharing my love.
When I teach, I see my students’ abilities develop and advance over time. As this happens, they too begin to experience this joy in their own lives, and it becomes part of their identity. I care deeply for each of my students, and I know that their developing musicianship is a way that they can go on to share their love.
Transformational Approach to Piano (TAP System)
The hundreds of hours I spent performing as a solo jazz pianist enabled me to define my own style into an effective teaching method. TAP is a proven method of teaching piano which has evolved from my multi-faceted musical career. TAP makes it possible for me to help students reach their individual goals more quickly and successfully.
