About
Teaching is a pleasure to me because I know the difference it can make in people's lives. I’m a dedicated teacher and always strive to make the learning process accessible and enjoyable, fully adapted to each student’s goals. I earned my degrees from UEMG in Brazil, Pennsylvania State University, and the University of Miami. I was a member of the Henry Mancini Orchestra and String Quartet.
Teaching Style
My method, developed through extensive research and practical experience, covers all levels from beginner to advanced. My belief is that effective teaching begins with truly listening to each student’s individual needs. That’s why you can expect lessons that are thoughtfully planned according to your goals, pace, and learning style.
