For beginning students who are children, I typically start with Hal Leonards Essential Elements book, as well a basic understanding of music. Once the student has progressed to have a nice grasp of the fundamentals of music, I usually begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate for their first recital performance. I also believe in the importance of listening to as many professional recordings as possible of the instrument the student is taking lessons on. Read More

The best thing in teaching is to see your students develop a passion for music, I cannot wait to do that and see the result. Be able to transmit your knowledge to someone that love it as same as you is just incredible !! As my teachers taught me, it's really important that each student progresses at his/her own pace. That is why I will begin to teach my students with the style of music, songs that they like and go from there. Read More
