I have taught quite literally all ages. 5-75. Styles and lesson books used varied depending upon student and school. I usually taught Suzuki for violin, viola and classical guitar (tend to prefer Scott Tennant Pumping Nylon book for classical guitar though). And usually Faber Piano Adventures for young piano students. Eventually going to Clementi Sonatinas and Chopin Preludes. Also Mel Bay Modern Guitar for beginning rock/jazz guitarists. Then eventually going to Mickey Bakers Jazz Guitar books. Read More

For beginning students who are children, I typically start with Piano or Guitar Lessons for the Young Beginner by Andrew Scott and Gary Turner. The student, even at a young age, learns an introduction to music theory. Each concept is taught in a very methodical and step-by-step approach. As a teacher, I am looking to prepare students for ongoing learning for years to come. The language of music can be very confusing and I am looking for ways to minimize those perplexing times.

I have been involved in music for most of my life; it is simply who I am. From teaching and composing to arranging and producing, all aspects of this art intrigue me and give me great satisfaction to share with others. I graduated from Columbia College Chicago in 2015 with a Bachelor of the Arts in Music Composition and a minor in Management. It has been my pleasure to perform all over the city of Chicago, from the House of Blues and the Bottom Lounge, to Chicago Acoustic Underground and Reggies. Read More

Music is the power, engine and trigger of the best emotions and feeling I can think of. That's my main consideration about a lifelong relationship with music. I pick up the guitar for the first time at nine years old, after piano and cello, but I properly started my academic path at the Conservatory "Ghedini" (Cuneo) and the Academy of Modern Music in Turin few years later. I then graduated from Berklee College of Music in Boston, guitar performance with Summa cum Laude. Read More

Starting in 2012 when I lived in Sonoma County in Northern California I started my own business of giving private music lessons from beginner to advanced at peoples homes. Through this I gained meaningful experience on how to communicate with students and forming long lasting bonds that guided them through a meaningful musical journey. In 2014 I was hired by a local private music school called Art and Soul Music Studios where I continued my same methods of teaching. Read More

Some of them have graduated from Berklee, Musician's Institute, and others just see music as a hobby and I respect and encourage them all equally. I've had adult students just picking up an instrument for the first time and seasoned pros that need some new perspective. My teaching has been a massive part of my career, including private lessons, working at School of Rock for 9 years, and masterclasses in my native Venezuela and The Netherlands. Read More
