“A piano lesson is not only a lesson for acquiring technical skills. A piano lesson is a combination of many aspects which combine body, mind and feelings. In a piano lesson, you use your ears, move your fingers, sing, clap, read a new language and much more while learning the discipline of practicing and having fun. It is an experience which changes your life and approach to things. This is why it is so important for me to be a teacher who is able to make students enjoy music in every single aspect.”
