BMus Hons, PhD
For the past ten years I have been teaching piano at primary schools and Canberra Music Tuition.

My teaching style is one of encouragement and support, and I am passionate about passing on my knowledge and furthering my teaching experience. I love helping students on their musical journey whether they are preparing for the AMEB exams or simply developing a love for playing.

I completed my Bachelor of Music degree at the Australian National University where I took piano lessons from Arnan Wiesel. Throughout my studies, I have participated in lessons and master-classes with Geoffrey Tozer, Geoffrey Lancaster, Geoffrey Saba, John Luxton and many others.

My passion for teaching led me to compose piano pieces of pedagogic intent for my Honours thesis. I completed my Honours degree with Professor Larry Sitsky in 2009 and received First Class Honours. These compositions can be found in the ANU and NLA websites: https://openresearch-repository.anu.edu.au/handle/1885/8989, http://trove.nla.gov.au/work/164774435?q&versionId=179617992. These pieces set out to work on some of the principles of the piano technique. Apart from piano pedagogy, my other research interests include the music of the avant-garde composers, music analysis and art/music teachers’ professional development
(education.unimelb.edu.au/__data/assets/pdf_file/0003/…/upitis-atri-paper.pdf).

I have recently completed my doctoral studies at the ANU School of Music under the
supervision of Professor Sitsky. In my PhD thesis I examined the piano compositions of
the Russian avant-garde composer, Nikolai Obukhov.
