I have been a passionate composer, piano teacher, theory teacher & piano examiner for many years. I am also committed to mentoring teachers in establishing then growing their piano studios.
My fundamental philosophy is to build relationships that are friendly, uplifting, informative & fun for any age and skill level.
Based in Annerley, Brisbane, Australia, and online, I have been teaching and examining AMEB piano and theory for many years.
While what's popular has changed, having fun, and making lessons relevant hasn't. For me it's all about my piano students enjoying their learning while achieving their goals in whatever style appeals to them.
I write my own teaching resources & arrange pieces that my students request. Every student has an individual program designed to help them achieve their goals. I assist piano teachers and students with how to set clear goals, & then design bespoke step-by-step strategies to achieve these.
I mentor piano teachers in piano studio business and teaching. My long-term goal for each piano student or piano teacher is to outgrow me, and to become fully independent & skillful in piano and theory, and studio business.
