My teaching experience started when I was a musician at the University of Maryland.  I was able to work with undergraduate vocal students and had a private studio where I worked with students over the DC/Baltimore area.  I continued my teaching at the Doral conservatory of music where I worked with many young singers hoping to get into some of the best private music schools in the Miami  area.

In my classroom and extracurricular programs, I focus on helping students develop musical skills while also building teamwork, listening abilities, and artistic confidence. I direct school ensembles and organize performances that allow students to experience the excitement of preparing for and presenting music to an audience. These opportunities help students understand that music is not only something to study, but something to share. In addition to my work in the classroom, I maintain a teaching studio where I provide individualized instruction, particularly in saxophone. Read More

My approach to teaching focuses on the importance of fundamental exercises. Along with this, I work with the student to create a dialogue that reinforces their interest in lessons. We apply these techniques directly to music-making in order to create a fun, satisfying, and rewarding experience. I have a passion for making music and I love to share that with others. When teaching new students, I believe it is important to establish that music-making is supposed to be a gratifying experience, with communication being a key factor: if a student doesn't understand something or needs further explanation, I am more than happy to work with that student so that they feel confident moving forward.

My teaching experience dates back after my college years during the years of home private studying most musical instruments as I began teaching various instruments to group students at the christian churches. When some of my advanced students started to request private lessons, I founded College Music Lessons. I never have students who just can not understand their instruments. They took the first lessons; they ready for the next ones. Read More

For beginning students I focus on the fundamentals of playing a saxophone: Setting up your instrument, reading music, breath training, and embouchure. Once the student progresses to a bit higher level, we start with rudimentary songs that allow the student to work on playing full songs. For more musically experienced students new to saxophone, I still start with the same foundational training and set up, but have a more rapid approach to having them play full songs in genre's they enjoy.
