Teaching Philosophy
Committed to fostering a supportive and collaborative learning environment, I am passionate about guiding students of all ages and skill levels to reach their full potential. Whether you're embarking on your musical journey as a beginner, seeking improvement, or an advanced musician craving a fresh perspective, I'm here to help. Together, we'll explore various strategies and techniques tailored to your individual needs, empowering you to achieve your goals and elevate your playing to the next level.
People with Different Abilities
We all possess unique abilities and strengths that shape our pursuits and endeavors. Embracing our strengths allows us to excel and continuously improve, even when faced with challenges. Trying, with dignity, opens pathways to growth and self-discovery, often leading to surprising achievements—a sentiment mirrored in the journey of mastering a string instrument.
For individuals with diverse abilities, navigating challenges may require additional support and motivation. As an advocate for inclusivity, I welcome people of all ages and abilities, along with their families and caregivers, to explore the enriching world of string instruments. With a background encompassing performance, teaching, and extensive experience as a life coach and clinician, I am equipped to provide tailored guidance and support. My expertise includes working with individuals with learning disabilities, autism spectrum disorders, pervasive developmental disabilities (PDD), and traumatic brain injuries (TBI), reinforced by training in Applied Behavior Analysis and leadership in engagement initiatives. Together, let's embark on a musical journey that celebrates diversity and empowers every individual to reach their full potential.
