About Leif
I have played piano for 9 years, and this last year I completed a successful Grade 8 Royal Conservatory of Music (RCM) piano exam. Besides playing piano, I have also enjoyed performing in the Okanagan Symphony Youth Orchestra (OSYO), and my high school choir, even having 3 of my symphonic compositions played by the OSYO! I have received 5/5 on the Advanced Placement (AP) Music Theory exam and been awarded scholarships by the BC Arts Council and BC Ministry of Education to help with my university studies in composition. My current composition teacher is the acclaimed Canadian composer Stephen Chatman.

I am a university music student, piano player, and composer, and I am highly passionate about helping others learn more about music! I have a very flexible schedule and am excited to help you pursue your musical interests, whether you're starting from scratch on the piano, wanting to learn how to read music, or more about music theory. Want to know how to compose music? I can help turn your musical ideas into musical reality. As your teacher, I can teach you to play the music that interests you, teach music theory concepts you're curious about, or how to compose your own music, all adapted to your level, learning style and goals. Each student's lessons will be slightly different, but a typical piano lesson will include troubleshooting challenging parts of the pieces you are working on, and setting short and long-term goals for them. In the case of music theory lessons, students will receive personalized worksheets, get feedback on previous work, as well as instruction on key concepts, or topics they are curious about. For students wanting to compose, they will receive custom exercises to develop composing skills, help finding their artistic voice through music listening suggestions, and feedback on their compositions. I emphasize enjoying music and making each lesson as fun and exciting as possible, which is why let students decide what they want to learn! As your teacher, I will support your development as a musician with excellent YouTube channels, books, and educational websites.

In the rare case I have to cancel a lesson, there will be no charge for the cancelled lesson, and I will refund your payment if you have already paid me. However, if you need to cancel a lesson, please notify me ASAP, preferably a day in advance so I can make arrangements with other students. Except in urgent or unexpected situations, I will still charge for a lesson you cancelled if am not properly notified.
