About

I am a pianist and singer who started learning to play the piano at age 6, and I love teaching all students of all experience levels. Growing up I competed and placed highly in many competitions including playing with the Symphony Orchestra in my home town of Spartanburg, SC after winning it's concerto competition at the age of 17. In college I took piano from Dr. Charles Fugo at the University of South Carolina and also started taking voice lessons from Tonya Currier and Walter Cuttino. While still in college I worked with The South Carolina Opera company for a season as a member of the ensemble and as Chorus Master. 
Professionally, I have worked with different theater and opera companies as a lead actor and as a musician. I have also worked in many different church positions as a musician and singer. 
I have many years of teaching experience with piano at all experience levels.

I am a retired guy who started weekly online piano lessons with Phillip about 2 months ago. I knew how to read music from playing clarinet MANY years ago in high school and college. But I could only read treble clef (piano right hand), and was a beginner on piano. I am thrilled with my lessons with Phillip. He is extremely dedicated to playing piano, he loves music, but clearly has focused on how to be the best teacher possible. He challenges me just the right amount. By this I mean that Phillip pushes me (with encouragement always) so that I am comfortable but not TOO comfortable! I am never bored, but neither am I overwhelmed. My progress is steady, and I am so grateful to have Phillip as my piano teacher. He answers my questions patiently,and gives me the confidence that if I practice regularly (which I do), the world of piano music that I will be able to play will continue to grow. Look no further for a teacher. Phillip is an exceptional teacher!!

Phillip is a great teacher, kind, encouraging and experienced. He really knows how to make a student comfortable and loving music. He has been helping my younger daughter prepare piano competition online, starting from song selection to now perfect her piece. He is not only teaching her how to play the piece but also to understand the music theory associated with the piece, as well as the needed techniques and practice to master the piece correctly. My daughter enjoys very much learning from Phillip and gradually gains confidence in playing her piece. It is evident that Phillip enjoys teaching his students and knows how to guide them based on their levels. Thank you so much, Phillip!

Phillip is awesome, he is by far the best vocal instructor I've ever had! I'm a 27 year old male who decided to start up voice lessons again to complement my guitar playing. I'm so glad that I chose Phillip as my instructor. He knows more about singing and how to sing than any instructor I've ever had. He's great!

Phillip is a wonderful teacher for children. Both my boys enjoy piano lessons and I believe it's because of Phillip!

Teaching Style

I have experience teaching since 1995 while I was still in college. I primarily use Alfred and "Faber & Faber" piano methods for beginners. I teach how to read music, understand the theory behind the music, and the technique needed in a patient atmosphere at the pace of the student. I also teach you how the piano works and the different types of pianos as well as the history of keyboards used for different classical music. The lessons are geared toward the goals of the student no matter what level is desired.
