I received my education from Berklee College of Music, majoring in Contemporary Writing and Production. I currently tutor for the following subjects; violin, viola, piano, classical music theory, jazz theory, improvisation, composition/arranging and Japanese. I did my extra credit in high school teaching G5 band kids, and I was also hired from the college to tutor on some of these subjects (music theory and Japanese) as well, so I have 10+ years of experience teaching. I enjoy working with students of all ages and levels, and I grew up in 4 different countries so I have worked with people from different countries as well. I try to get the big picture during my first lesson and plan a rough class plan that works best for the student, so I do not have a set materials/go-to plan, after all, each student has different goals and learning curves and a good instructor is able to adjust accordingly. I like to be surprised by how much the students grow and that is what I strive to achieve through my lessons. Other than that, I love to cook. If you need any Japanese food recipes, I have tons of those to give you so please let me know. :)
