Instruments: Guitar Cello Bass Guitar
I began teaching a younger cello student while I was in high school, serving as an intermediary between him and his primary teacher. There, I was just an extra pair of ears, but it helped me to focus on my own technique and how to most efficiently play my instrument. Thus, I believe classical methods of teaching are most effective for getting a student off the ground and running on the cello. Read More

My teaching expereince dates back to before I graduated undergraduate school. Since I had a semester to wait for Commencement, I was afforded an opportunity to work as a Teacher assistant, in an Open Classroom Learning Environment. This immediately preceded a very rewarding Student Teaching experience in the rural southern state of North Carolina. I was as challenging an experience as I have ever had being that my travel mileage on some days was as much as 80 miles. Upon my return to New York, I was afforded an opportunity to teach Beginner Band Grades 4,5 and 6, per diem for one year. Read More

Throughout my 20 plus years of teaching In these music conservatory’s I have developed a method of teaching for the student that is personally adapted for each student to make them better players professionally or for fun.

Instruments: Drums
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Challenge yourself, and keep score. With drums it is a matter of perfecting as well as building stamina and muscle over time. Play an easy song with size C-5 sticks, add a few 16ths here and there on the hi-hat, make it game. You want to be limber, comfortable, familiar and adaptable when playing the drums. Try to play a variety of rhythms, change between them, alternate, collate, change time signature. Develop the basic rudiments of rock and jazz into a fun game when you practice and warm up alone.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Under 5 it can be hard to tell, as drums are a primal attraction of children and incredibly fun. However tapping their feet at a young age is often said to be a tell tale sign of a future drummer; as well as emulating musicians and drummers when seen in real life. Sometimes a toy drumset is a good test: some kids may blow you away with an original rhythm! If you're still unsure, see how long they can keep a rhythm in a basic hand clapping game with them or iphone/tablet synthesizer. Music and electronic technology have diverged into the ultimate child musician identifier.
When will I start to see results?
4-5 weeks.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Professor Paul Davies and Robert Hartwell at Foothill College in Los Altos both fully engulfed my in the academics of music in a way I don't think either one of them will ever realize. The effect they have had on my knowledge of music and discovery of new music was truly profound.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
It chose me to be perfectly honest. I was drumming out 7/4 on the dinner table with no training or lessons. My aunt and uncle would babysit me and take me to their marching band practice and events. The best view of my uncle playing horn would be right next to the tympani and snare in the orchestra pit. At 2 I would kick my crib in time to pink floyd and bebop jazz.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
My songs and my albums.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
My favorite genres to play are rock, metal, jazz fusion and post rock. These are among the most challenging as they are the most demanding both for stamina and innovation. Jazz drums could very well be the most fun kind of music to play, and when combined with your favorite world genres the possibilities are endless. My favorite record to play front to back The Inner Mounting Flame by Mahavishnu Orchestra.
