Stop Obsessing Over Teacher Problems. Let's Get to Work.

My Approach
Let’s be honest: Piano teachers have been quietly contributing to the success of society for centuries.
In a world that often feels upside down, I choose to invest in what I know to be good: Studio Music Teachers like you and me.
Whether you’re looking for advice on dealing with difficult studio families, how to implement studio policies, or specific pedagogical training, I’m here to help.
30 years of piano teaching experience have taught me this: Our work is important, and we need good-hearted people to stay in the profession.
Let’s eliminate some of the noise in your brain so you can focus on the work of teaching that REALLY matters.
