I am passionate about teaching and sharing my love for music-making with my students. Together, we work to develop everything from the very basics to the most advanced skills, including the intricacies of technique, tone production, musicality, reed-making, and score study. It is crucial for talented young oboists to receive constructive guidance in a nurturing, supportive environment. I consider it a great personal responsibility to help my students to fall in love with the magic of music for the rest of their lives, and for them to become not only exemplary musicians but also exemplary people.
