Her greatest goal in teaching is to create a motivating and enjoyable learning process. She works to build a safe and encouraging relationship as she celebrates her student’s progress.

As a music teacher, Ms. Naomi incorporates a variety of methods including the Suzuki method, which is an educational system that aims to teach children how to play music with the same ease that they learn to speak their language. This process includes listening, imitation, and repetition. She also believes that a successful learning process is founded in a triangular relationship between the teacher, student, and parents. She not only teaches her students, but also seeks to communicate to parents how to be a support to their child’s musical journey.
