Teacher

I believe that teaching music is first of all about helping a student become an independent musician. Technique matters, of course, but it is only the beginning. I want my students to understand what they are playing, to listen, to ask questions, to make decisions and gradually to develop their own musical voice. For me, a good lesson is not simply the transmission of information: it is a conversation in which trust, curiosity and high standards can exist at the same time.

My teaching is deeply influenced by the Kodály approach, in which music is not an isolated skill but part of a broader musical and human education. I work with beginners, advanced performers and future teachers, with children as well as adults. Whatever the level, I try to meet the person in front of me where they are, while helping them move beyond what they already know. I care about independent practising, creativity and musical understanding just as much as about accuracy and technical progress.

I also believe that a teacher should remain a practising musician. Performing, chamber music, research and teaching continuously inform one another in my work. I want my students to experience music not as a collection of requirements, but as something alive — something worth working for, thinking about and sharing with others. My aim is ultimately simple: to give each student the confidence and tools to continue learning without me.
