TEACHING PHILOSOPHY— Mathai Piano Studio
I believe in the musical potential of every student, and that making music can be fun and accessible for all ages. Since every student is different, lessons are customized to the student’s individual needs.
I focus on a classical approach, with emphasis on reading, ear-training and healthy technique. All of these are incorporated into each lesson. Reading and ear training are introduced and reinforced by weekly assignments in theory. Correct hand and arm position as well as supported posture, all contribute to a healthy and efficient way of playing the piano and organ..
These skills apply not only to keyboard study, but can be taken into all other areas of music as well as enhancing one’s personal appreciation of music in every genre.
