I approach my classes with a lot of flexibility and creativity to help the student learn in the best way possible. By flexibility I mean that I adapt to the student's need and by creativity I mean that I always enjoy making the class very engaging and entertaining using diverse ways, such as cards, and coloured music sheets for the student to understand fully. I have been taught by many teachers with different methodologies and I have come to realise the best attitude and strategies to ensure the maximum potential of the student, which is always my goal.
I am a Bachelor of International Economics student at UBC who has practiced the violin for 15 years. It has been my hobby throughout my life and I have studied it in the National Conservatory of Music of Peru for 4 years.
