Taking students who are beginners and advancing them to the level where they can perform the masters. In young children, I enjoy seeing how it affects their schoolwork, especially math. For more advanced students, I enjoy training them on technique development and musicianship. Helping my students develop stage presence and confidence through student recitals and competitions is quite gratifying to me. Enabling dedicated and talented students receive scholarships is also a benifit.
