I use an easy-to-understand, fun, and exciting teaching style that meets your own personal goals.

When I am done with work and/or private lessons near Danville, I commute home to Oakland and then am available to teach in the Oakland area in the evening (or any locations on the way). I am very flexible and would love to make it as easy as possible for you. In the convenience of your own home, my charge is $35/half hour or $65/hour. I look forward to meeting you!
