About Me

"We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit".
Practising piano and playing music is not just a routine, but it is a habit and has been my sobering way of refreshing myself. I'm passionate about sharing music and hopefully can touch others through it.

Besides teaching, I have a guitar duo, we released our first CD in 2021 and made educational videos for classical guitar. If you are interested, do not hesitate to contact me 🎶🙂

Through my courses I will teach all levels of piano playing. My approach will consist of forming an individual repertoire according to each student's needs. In case that students want to integrate piano lessons with composing, that is also something I would strongly encourage, since piano is the most frequently used instrument for composing music.
