Introduction: I'm excited to start working with you. I love your interest in music and learning the piano. I'm a pianist and music theorist with a master's degree in Music Performance and Music Theory at the University of Minnesota. For the past 19 years, I've been an active performer and had participated in multiple competitions and recitals, obtaining several prizes and distinctions, as well as given recitals in and out of the country in halls such as Carnegie Hall, Moscow House of Music, Ordway Center for Performing Arts, etc. Those experiences have given me the opportunity to know the field and open up my vision of the world. That vision has been translated into my teaching approach, and for the past 6 years, I've been motivating students to become their own musicians. Currently, I'm also a member of the faculty at Kramer School of Music in the Twin Cities. Check out my profile for more information about myself, or contact me with any questions. I look forward to starting working with you! Every student is different. Each shows a different personality and thus the outcome of their learning is always different. To me, it is fascinating to see how the same subject (music notation, harmony, sight-reading, technique, performance, styles, etc) needs to be taught differently to meet the potential of each student. The progress my students show really motivates me to do what I do because for a teacher, their students' success reflects the quality of his or her job. My objective is to enhance the student's musical strengths and use them to learn new repertoire and skills.

Daniel spends time in developing fundamental skills that will help the student play harder pieces. He is very patient, detailed, and methodical with his homework assignments. Lessons nonetheless are fun, specially when he gets his hysterical moments. He is a teacher that would leave you with a big smile and that would care about you as a student.
