A LITTLE ABOUT ME
Teaching piano
through listening.
I studied piano performance at the University of Western Ontario and specialize in teaching the traditional Suzuki Method of Piano.
My lessons focus on learning by ear: listening closely, recognizing notes, and building the musical memory to play a melody. Repetition and familiar music help connect what students hear with what they play.
I teach private, in-person lessons in Oak Harbor. Lessons can include Suzuki repertoire, Disney music, popular melodies, and children’s favorites, with individual guidance shaped around each learner’s interests and experience.

WHAT LESSONS FEEL LIKE
Individual attention.
Music they enjoy.
A student’s favorite song can open the door to a new skill. Alongside Suzuki repertoire, lessons make room for recognizable melodies and the music that sparks their curiosity.
The aim is to develop listening, piano skills, and confidence through supportive, personalized instruction and regular practice.
