Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Flute Clarinet
I like to have a balance in my lessons between fun and challenge. I do this by setting realistic goals each week for my students, dependent on their level of perfomance and the pace that they are progressing. Not everyone will progress at the same pace, and I feel that it is more important for a student to master a particular lesson than to move quickly through the lesson book. Read More
Instruments: Piano
The most important thing for me is to see my students could find their favorite pieces and develop a passion for music, that's the basis for them to progress at their pace. Also, I will help to set up weekly goals for my students, to encourage them to arrange their practice. So during that process, they will recognize the importance of accomplishments and encouragements to keep their passion for music, to desire to learn more and make more progress on the path. Read More

I write all my own lesson materials focusing on what the student needs to know to play, understand, and enjoy music to achieve their goals. I have used several method books in the past but find them all limited or focused on styles or technique that is not what the student wants or needs to learn. I can teach from any established method if that is preferred, but instead enjoy challenging the student to understand what music is and how music is played on their chosen instrument, not just to read.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Classical Guitar
I studied music with the intention to be the teacher I wanted as a youth. I am kind, patient, and creative. I have perfected a process to where 30 minutes of conceptualization matched with strategic practice, will help you get much closer to your goal, in half the time. why should it take years to master an instrument? The traditional approaches used are good, but people desire to make gains quickly. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet
I have been teaching the saxophone since 2008, to both kids and adults, beginners and advanced players. I always like to incorporate music theory and aural skills into my lessons as I believe those subjects are a must in becoming a well-rounded musician. I do not usually follow a book/method page-to-page but rather adjust the curriculum to each and every student. Each on of my students has different goals and aspiration and it would not be fair to them to force them to follow one book/curriculum. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Viola
My approach to teaching is gentle and warm while maintaining high standards of excellence for both my instruction as well as my expectations of my students. When we both strive to do our best work each lesson, we have fun and learn new things which leads to more interest and pride on the student's part. There is nothing more exciting in teaching than seeing students progress and be proud of what they have done. Read More
Instruments: Cello
When will I start to see results?
Results happen very gradually over a long period of time. Sometimes, since we hear ourselves play everyday when practicing, it's difficult to notice improvement over a long period of time, because the progress is so gradual. Because of this, I recommend that the student record a video of themselves playing every once in a while. If you practice consistently over a long period of time, you might be shocked at how much progress you've made when you look back at your videos from the past.
That being said, I think most students can start seeing significant improvements in their playing within 2-3 months! Of course, progress in entirely dependent on practicing effectively, very consistently, over a long period of time. You can see results even sooner if you are motivated to practice really hard.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child enjoys playing their instrument and wants to improve, they are ready to start lessons in my opinion. Good practicing and improvement comes when one applies the knowledge they have learned into their playing, and private lessons are the absolute best way to do this. Also, building good technical habits from the beginning is so crucial, and having a private teacher to keep checking on and adjusting the students technique can be so incredibly helpful. Because of this, I believe one should begin lessons as soon as there is a clear motivation to improve, as private lessons are the best way to achieve that improvement.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practice slowly! That's the best piece of advice I have for practicing effectively. Slow practice allows you to focus on the detail of everything you do, from how your bow is working, to left hand intonation, tone production, articulation and more- slow practice enables you to zoom in and work on much more detail than you could at a faster tempo. And slow practice doesn't have to be boring! In fact, I'm a firm believer that practice should never be boring. Slow practice is a chance to explore music up close in personal, and you get to really decide what you want to say with a piece. I also believe that experimentation is so crucial to make good progress in the practice room. You have to try things you haven't tried before every day, always trying to push your limits. You never know if something works for you or not if you haven't tried it, and cello playing is so depende
