I continue to develop my skills as a musician in a very goal-oriented manner so I like to utilize that aspect of learning with my teaching.

My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began teaching private lessons part time 8 years ago, and have been consistently teaching students in my home studio for the last 5 years. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument. I've also found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the piano and motivate them to practice and continue to learn. Read More

Not everyone will become a professional musician, but I do believe, everyone's life can deeply enriched with increased musical comprehension.

If they want to master a song to play to a small group of friends, I'm here for them! Even if they have true aspirations of becoming a professional, I'm prepared to share both my knowledge of music, and any pertinent wisdom I've gleaned from my experiences. Read More

As stated before, I began teaching as a private guitar instructor from 2012 to early 2018. Students' age ranged from 8 to 32 year olds. I taught basic music theory from intervallic relations between certain notes via guitar fretboard to the clear understanding of triads and scales. Mainly Ionian and all its other modes. Plus 12 or 16 bar blues, soloing concepts, covering songs while understanding the written development from a melodic and harmonic standpoint. And of course becoming familiar with all the notes on the fretboard and being able to sight read standard sheet must notation and chord charts. Read More
