About
I have been teaching piano, vocal performance and music theory for over 30 years. My students are wide range in age: young Children thru Adults from 4 to 70+ y.o., beginners through advanced level. I concentrate on correct technique, performance, sight-reading, knowledge of theory and musical history for advanced students.
My teaching style is flexible, I can combine Russian and American methods of piano school. I teach classical, pop music and jazz, depending on individual preference. I am very skilled, patient, dedicated teacher and inspire all my students to practice and play and sing to the best of their abilities.
I enjoy to teach my students various skills and set achievable goals for them. And see them to achieve the goal and watch their progress is very satisfactory to everyone: the student and the parents.
