Specialties

Hello all! I’m a profesional piano instructor and I just moved down to the South Bay. I have a bachelors degree in Music Education and I’ve taught elementary and middle school band and choir for 3 years. I just moved to Redondo Beach and looking to tutor a couple of kids in Piano. I’ve tutored privately for over 5 years and absolutely love it. I’ve played piano my whole life and I’m very passionate in both the music and the theory. Mostly I LOVE kids and seeing them progress and take a love for the musical arts. Please let me know if you are interested.

History

Established in 2011.

Private Instruction is one of the best ways to learn how to play an instrument. One-​on-​one instruction means that each students is given the type of instruction that best suits their learning styles and desires.

I offer piano lessons for students of varying age and ability. I am classically trained, but have worked with students on multiple styles of music. I start piano lessons with students ages 5 and older (including adults!) The length of a piano lessons is determined by the age and motivation of the student. Typically, lessons can range from 30, 45 or 60 minutes.

Piano has been a part of my life since a very young age. I remember the first time I played the keys, and the joy I felt from making random sounds on the black and white keys. I was inspired by my grandfather to play piano, grew up listening to classical music.

My passion for teaching piano becomes greater with each new student I have. I am highly motivated, energetic, and creative in my teaching. I believe my students appreciate working with me because I am down to earth and easy to get along with while still having high standards for them. Not only this, but I teach my students to have high standards for themselves, resulting in good technique, musicality, and most of all, a love for the music itself.
