I have been teaching music lessons as a music therapist since 2007 and have much experience with adapted lessons for students with developmental disabilities and other limitations. I started teaching typical lessons in addition to adapted lessons in 2013 and it has been an added joy for me. I love teaching basic music lessons and music theory to children developing strong musical roots. I encourage a regular practice schedule for all of my students to help develop strong habits and engraving music in each of their lives. Read More

I believe that it is important to tailor lessons to my individual students, helping to foster a love of music and learning. I think it is important for my students to have goals that they are striving to achieve. They can be big goals, like making it into a college of choice, but I also think small ones are important, like mastering the Bb major scale. We work towards goals and celebrate accomplishments together to help drive each student's passion. Read More

When I start with a student, we immediately start working on sight-reading, as I believe it is a very important skill to have. Even the beginners students, all start sight-reading right off the bat, and build on the skill as they progress. As we go along with our lessons, we add on new concepts and integrate those into what is already learned, as well as incorporate them into music the student enjoys. Read More

My main goal in teaching is to bring out the best in my students. I make sure to take into account each students learning style and to go at their pace. My wish is to give students the tools that they need to succeed and then to allow them the freedom to fly with that. The main concept that is essential to growth in art is practice. Students will need to understand the importance of practicing regularly in order to nurture the art and develop as a musician and person. Read More

My musical experiences started at church in the 80's when I discovered that I could sing really high notes imitating Christian artists like Sandy Patty and the late puertorican soprano Yolanda Vadiz. Those experiences motivated me to consider studying music seriously not just like another hobby. I started studying voice techniques at the age of 20 at the Sacred Music Institute in the Methodist Church in Hato Rey, PR. There I took classes with tenor Jose Torres and baritone Rafael Cotto who prepared me for the audition at the Conservatory of Music of Puerto Rico. Read More

When will I start to see results?
Learning anything takes 10% theory and 90% practice. As long as the student consistently dedicates the 15min a day, the results will be immediate.
The secret is to approach the daily 15min practice as a pleasure and not a chore. In that regards, my specialty is to get the student motivated and on fire to get to see results.
With regular practice, I expect a student starting from nothing to start see very tangible results starting from 3 months. Chords form the basis of my teaching because they allow the student to play entire songs, and these can be played in all types of settings, family, friends, professional, etc. When the student notices how he can move people with his chords and have them singing and actually share musical moments of joy, he gets even more motivated to learn more, and that's the guitar snowball effect.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
As long as the child likes music and will not have any external issue with dedicating 15min daily, I consider him to be ready. As a matter of fact, there is no right age to start. In fact, children are much more capable of over-achieving themselves because they have not developed self-limiting beliefs. Therefore, all a child needs are guidance and mentorship that will spark the light inside of him to get to learn things and envision himself as an actual player.
Children do not need to have specific target songs to play. They would start with the basic music fundamentals, with tablature reading, and with playing simple classical tunes. From there, he would learn
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
In general:
In the beginning, focus on learning all chords, and practice changing your hand position from a chord to another. In addition, get a good handle on rhythm and temp, and rigorously use the metronome if needed.
When practicing existing songs:
Play slow first with the metronome. Focus on correcting the weak elements. Gradually increase speed. Once playing at comfortable speed, play alongside the music, and record yourself.
For more advanced players:
Focus on improvising, because that's where your skills will take it to the master level, your creativity will explode and you become a self-reliant musician who can play anything anytime anywhere.
When jamming with a band or other musicians, make sure you are well grounded with the rhythm and the tempo. Start playing basic. Slowly and gradually change things, alter nuances and add your own signatures. Do NOT EVER panic if you play a wrong note or tone, simply feint it and move, because it is most likely that nobody would have noticed it anyways, and besides, blue notes are part of the game.
Last words:
Do NOT get discouraged, as it took me several years just to be able to play a basic song from end to end. All you need is a consistent 15min of practice, ideally daily, but at least every other day. Once you learn, not only you cannot unlearn, but your progress speeds up at an impressive rate, and suddenly, after a few months, you end up playing lots of songs.
