About
I love to teach and have good results, help to my students achieve their dreams, as vocalists and pianists, to feel comfortable on stage.
15 years of music education, Master Degree as a teacher of musical disciplines, (choir) conductor, pianist, vocalist, my education was world wide. I have unique techniques for piano and vocal lessons. With my vocal technique you'll able to sing good and speak long without harming your vocal chords, throat.
Used to conduct ensembles and choir up to 1000 at a time.
My experience as a voice teacher 20+ years; piano teacher 10+ years.
I also perform frequently as a songwriter.
I enjoy the accomplishment of my students, who understood that they can achieve their goals. My lessons help to develop not only music/voice skills, but comprehensive, critical and logical thinking, which is very important and much needed for especially now days. Also help in math.
