About Me
Teaching has always been appealing to me, it always felt like sharing, helping and guiding. It also carries a huge amount of responsibility of course. Finding the best way to teach an individual can be challenging and yet extremely rewarding too. My strongest skill is to be able to determine exactly and very quickly, what it is that the student needs to move forward. Many of my students are professionals in the music business and some still call me from time to time for some advice or, just to chat.
