Instruments: Drums
Apart from being the drummer for Seek Irony, I worked as a professional session drummer for ten years before moving to the US about a year and a half ago. I used to play drums for half of the music industry in Israel. So far, I’ve recorded drums on over fifty records and performed over a thousand shows in my drumming career.Right before moving to the US, I was asked to record drums for a special musical project on a song that involved Israel and China’s top singers and was meant to celebrate a twenty-year anniversary of diplomacy between the two countries.

Instruments: Piano Violin Drums
Music has been one of my passions since I was a little girl! I took up piano at age 8, violin at 13, and drums at 15. I've been known to belt out a tune here and there, too! There is nothing better than having an afternoon to lose yourself to creating and playing music. In high school, I was Concert Master of the Philharmonic Orchestra. I've had the opportunity to perform on the drums at various venues and was invited by my drum instructor to return to the studio to become an instructor myself, where I taught for three years.

Patience is the key. For the teacher and the student. There's no need to get upset or angry. Music isn't hard, bricks are. Music just takes time. If there's a section of the music that's challenging, I like to take it in chunks. By focussing on the first couple bars and once that's clean, we can look at the next couple bars. Then adding the four bars, and repeating that. Read More

I strive to create an environment in my lessons where students have free to explore and express their passions and find their voice to become great musicians and people. In my lessons, I prioritize three main goals: technical proficiency, music literacy, and the performance of enjoyable repertoire. These goals are taught through age and experience-appropriate method books, along with supplemental technical materials that are shared with students as well. Finally, musical literacy and technique come together in application of repertoire! Read More

My method is simple , edgy and creative the approach is extremely understandable and fun as long as the student continues to set personal time for self practice the sky is the limit I personally take student on stage to perform with my band when I feel and see they are ready they learn many original songs that I have written and help them find their confidence on stage we will work on stage presence, showmanship and most of all working in a top notch rock n roll band there is a lot of involvement when comes to performing and entertaining an audience this is a bit more than recital or playing your favorite cover song htere's alot of creativity that goes on with my methods.

Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Depending on the instrument, I refer to a variety of methods books and other sources...no one book is going to provide you with a 'comprehensive' approach to all things on your instrument--that's what lessons are for! Years ago, I went through book level 1 (beginner), level 2 (intermediate), and level 3 (advanced) from different publishers and for each book and for each level of that book, I compiled (in chronological order) numerous excerpts and put them into Finale software. By doing so, I'm then able to format their appearance however I prefer (e.g., AlphaNotes, beat numbers or sticking for drummers as 'lyrics' under each note, enlarged staff and note size as well as increased spacing between staves and number of systems on each page; special fonts, etc.) I then can quickly transpose to any other instrument, save, print, or e-mail, etc. I prefer not to copy pages out of books!
I started on the Ed Sueta Band Methods books myself (ca, 1990-1992), and when I first started teaching in NJ everyone was using Bruce Pearson's Standard of Excellence books; here in TX everyone uses Essential Elements. They all have similar songs in a logical order, only the layout is different. I sometimes pull from Rubank or Premier Performance. For violin, I recommend All For Strings (and get the accompanying theory workbook, too). For piano, I mostly use Keys to Successful Piano Performance (by William Workinger and Ed Sueta). For drums, I also use: Stick Control for the Snare Drummer, Progressive Steps to Syncopation (by Ted Reed), and Joel Rothman's Mini-Monster Book of Rock Drumming.
FYI: All exercises for warm-up purposes (to build and maintain skills) are created by me using Finale for each instrument. I've copyrighted my own material which begins each lesson I teach. If there is a physical muscle or theory skill required in the music, then custom-tailored by both skill level and instrument I have an exercise to combat that!
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
My step-father had a used, generic-brand alto saxophone in the back of his closet from his days of playing in school bands. When the time came for me to choose an elective for junior high, I chose band as I always liked both the look of the saxophone as well as its sound (as heard from many selections of pop music in a variety of specific genres).
But I must tell you that music (school band with the saxophone) was my only extra-curricular activity. Coming from a large family, that was all we could afford, and failure was not an option. So, I practiced at least 2-3 hours every single day! The saxophone accompanied me to friends' houses, on family vacations to see distant relatives, at church functions...as long as everyone was awake I played. I played because I wanted to achieve certain results (e.g., specific techniques, the ability to master various songs, etc.)
