I have more than 25 years of teaching experience, and enjoy working with piano students of all ages and abilities, including students considering careers in music. I teach privately in Manhattan, and also serve on the piano faculties of two New York City music schools: Third Street Music School Settlement, and Turtle Bay Music School. I also present master classes regularly in Alberta, Canada and elsewhere.

Educational Philosophy:

All teachers endeavor to share their skills, knowledge, and enjoyment of the subject they teach. Beyond this, I hope also to instill in my students a love of learning, a broad interest in art and culture, and to help them realize their own self-expression through music. Naturally, strong student motivation is paramount for success. Therefore, the underlying focus of every lesson is an effort to pass on to students my passion for great music – seeds which, I hope, may grow into a lifetime of enjoyment.
