My teaching experience began in high school when I started teaching beginning flute players and then branched out to advanced high schoolers as well. I encourage my students to keep performance goals in mind such as recitals and competitions. I focus on tone and musicianship development through various exercises, etudes, and classic repertoire. I love motivating my students to further their musicianship and I also love helping my students connect things they learn in music to things in their everyday life. Read More

I have found that the most effective way for me to teach is to activate the student's self-motivation, rather than trying to serve as external motivation. We will spend some time discussing the student's goals, whether they are concrete or abstract. I understand that many students have different styles of practicing! For some of my students, we ran lessons like they were drill sessions, and for others, the lessons were all about taking a deeper look into the piece itself and going through passages separately to personalize the performance.

For beginners, I typically start with fundamentals and technique combined with the, Essential Elements 2000. Once the student gets in track, I start introducing more advanced book such Rubank, J.H Luft, H.Klose and Feerling. For adults and more advanced students, most likely I develop a custom guide and protocol based on what their focus of interest is. I would provide the necessary information more related to Jazz music style and technique in order to develop a proper language. Read More
