Nothing is more rewarding that seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a student's desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. Read More

I'm a professional guitarist with over ten years of experience teaching music to students of all ages. My goal is always to help my students to bring out the music within them in a fun way. I like to focus in very small theoretical and very big practical components to get the most out of every single bit of information delivered. My experience as a performing musician is very vast and covers a very wide range of styles, such as Blues, Rock, Pop, Jazz, Latin, Brazilian, Country, Funk and Fusion. Read More

I like to teach to the interests and ability levels of my students. I believe in keeping lessons light and fun, while maintaining a strong emphasis on guiding my students toward becoming musically literate. A typical lesson for a younger student may include board games and coloring pages in addition to traditional "on instrument" time. I also strive to integrate technology in to my lessons, whether by using iOS apps as teaching supplements, or by monitoring home practice through a "flipped" classroom approach. Read More

As I mentioned before, my teaching style can best be described as easygoing, but precise and adapted to each students needs. I focus on the person trying to learn as much as on the learning itself. Yet, Im not demanding or harsh in my delivery or expectations. Rather than a standard, vanilla approach, I try learn my students personality, learning style, and sense of humor pretty quickly and work to adapt the facts and knowledge of music to each student as an individual human, not an appointment.

Ive been a dedicated performer, teacher and student of music since 2003. I have a passion for sharing the joy of music with students of all ages and with my community at large. My unique training in music from many different parts of the world (West Africa, India, Indonesia, Iran Eastern Europe) has given me a deep perspective on the numerous ways of teaching music and how it positively impacts society.

Apart from only taeching, I also love to learn. I love to learn about what inspires people, about what motivates them and what they dream of becoming or acomplishing. No judgements, no rushing. Everybody learns at they're own speed. I set realistic goals and encourage students to find they're own style of expression. Learning music should always be fun. As a father of a 2 year old whom loves his guitar, I can teach from the youngest of students, to the more advanced ones. Read More

I have been teaching in San Diego for over 15 years, and before that I was in Phoenix, AZ. I have been involved in countless wind bands, orchestras, and various ensembles over the years. I studied clarinet under Dr. Robert Spring and Dr. Jorge Montilla. I have a very strong piano base since I have been playing piano since I was 9. My wife is also a music teacher and taught band, guitar, and steel pa drums in Mesa, AZ. Read More

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My high school choir director! I had always loved singing, but she really inspired me with her encouragement, respect for me, and the opportunities she gave me. She made me into such a confident person and singer, and I have so much gratitude for her. Because of her, I decided that I wanted to do the same thing for other people.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I have been singing for my entire life! I loved singing more than anything in the world. For my second birthday, I received a bucket of sand toys, but I took the bucket and started playing it like a drum. As a child, I used to sing Disney songs for my family in the living room. I loved performing and being on the stage for as long as I could remember. Singing has just always been a part of me!
When will I start to see results?
Most of my students will begin seeing results immediately. I am extremely thorough with my students, and I will give them suggestions for how to improve immediately. Like learning anything, you're going to constantly improve. I am not a miracle worker. Most of the work has to come from you. I make sure to give my students the tools for successful singing, and then it is up to them to put that to practice. Your results will come faster if you practice effectively.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
In my opinion, voice lessons should not begin until a child starts puberty. This is a controversial statement, but based on my background in vocal health studies, I have found that it is more appropriate for children to begin lessons once they are beginning puberty; even after puberty. From the time a child is born to the time they reach puberty, this is a critical time for vocal exploration. Musical aptitude does not level out until the age of 9, and the voice changes during puberty in both males and females. Kids who are singers should spend their childhood singing songs and exploring their voices, and then the formal training should begin at puberty.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Don't practice voice too much! I always advise my students to practice, at MOST, 30 minutes a day. The voice is not like a regular instrument. Practicing too much can make your voice tired and even cause some vocal injuries. I believe that singing should be fun! I never want my students to become stressed or tired due to practicing too much. When practicing, I advise my students to sing a song we've been working on, record themselves. and listen to the recording. Think of some technical aspects that could be improved and sing it again!
