About
I have been teaching for almost 30 years and enjoy teaching students of all ages. I make sure the students have strong foundation with the basics of music and provide many opportunities for students to perform in recitals, festivals and participate in piano exams. Most of all, I make sure they're having fun during their lessons.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
We start right away on how to read music. Students will play notes and music from their first lesson! I always like to find out a little more about each student to help them learn their best.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a Masters of Music in Piano Performance and have taught for over 20 years at several music schools. I have also performed in many different cities throughout the world from New York, Praque to Bangkok. I have worked with children and adults of all ages and enjoy teaching everyone.
How did you get started teaching?
I taught my mom's students as well as taught at a precollege program while I was doing my Masters degree at Rice University. I also taught class piano while I was doing my Masters degree as well.
What types of students have you worked with?
I have worked with children from 3 years old to senior citizens to their 80's. I have also taught special needs children, autistic children and blind students as well.
What advice would you give a student looking to hire a teacher in your area of expertise?
Meet with the teacher and see how you fit with him or her. You can also ask for a trial lesson. Teachers should also have a strong background in music and teaching experience. Someone patient is a plus.
What questions should students think through before talking to teachers about their needs?
Go over the teacher's studio policy and what is expected of them as a student.
