Instruments: Guitar
I'm pretty laidback and like to make the student feel comfortable. If given the opportunity I can definitely launch into some pretty passionate talks about music , to really reach out and teach my students some really cool things. At the same time though, i don't like to bore any student with certain topics if they aren't ready and willing to learn these things. It really depends on the student. I like to encourage playing or jamming in the lessons as well so that we can apply different things we are learning to actual music. Read More

Every student learns at a different pace and many students learn differently. Music is an aural art form and I've found that many younger students haven't always heard a lot of music. I like to incorporate listening and appreciation in those cases. I like to encourage creativity and share ideas that show the student they can create music of their own. I like to see the student enjoy what they are doing and I like to point out their growth, especially when they feel frustrated. Read More

I began teaching when I was a junior in highchool 5 years ago. As I progressed and study music at college I've kept on teaching as I've kept on learning, both at school and at home. Consistency is key and I always ingrain this into my students, no matter the level. The more you play the more you'll foster a love for your instruments! Being classically trained has given me a phenomenal base for my playing and I always try and incorporate the excellent form and technique it produces when teaching, especially with students of different genres!

Instruments: Guitar
For me, that created a lot of boredom and disinterest at times, so I just can't really think of any good reason to avoid that way of doing things. The teacher is the one giving the service, and I personally believe that this specific type of service should be defined by the student and not curated by the teacher! I believe in short, consistent, daily practice times, but I think practice can be useless if it isn't done correctly. Read More

My teaching experience dates back from high school days teaching church, college, university choirs, and eventually soloists or ensemble group. I have had groups who become champions in multiple competitions, I have had students who became queens of jazz vocal competitions, I have students who eventually became professional musicians and vocal artists, and I coach too while they are in a recording studio especially with first timers. Some of my students love to write their own original songs and I help them be able to choose the right vocabulary, rhymes, rhythm, melody and all. Read More

Born and raised in Paris, France I speak French, English , German and Italian fluently. From a musical family I began learning the guitar at age 6 and the cello at nine. I have had a passion for music from a very young age and would love to share this passion with new students. At 16 I shifted my professional focus onto acting and most recently graduated from the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in Midtown Manhattan. Read More

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I choose my primary instrument by chance. A friend asked if I would play bass in his band, and i said yes. He had an old bass laying around and I learned how to play by watching and listening to him. I fell in love with music and playing and finally took lessons. Playing the bass became my life. It has changed the way I think about everyday things in life. I hone in on small details and think about decisions I make all because I picked up my friends old bass. I do not know where I would be without it.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am proud of many musical accomplishments. When I first started playing I was asked to play gigs on Cape Cod, where I am originally from. I was paid very well and made connections that I hostel have til this day. Going to school for music is one of the biggest accomplishments. Going to school really helped me get organized with my music and life. I have managed bands and played in them. I have played really great venues in NYC, venues you hear your favorite bands have played. I have played with grammy award winning musicians, and have met countless friends through music.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I have had private students go on to high school bands and have been accepted to college because they have played music. I have students who were very grateful just to have played in my school band. Success, for them, is something I would hear when they said thank you to me for staying after school to help them learn a piece of music or a scale. I have given awards to my students because they have gone above and beyond what was asked of them. Some students have started their own bands in hopes of playing in NYC.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing to master on your instrument is being as good as you want to be. Playing an instrument takes constant practice. You cannot stop just because you have reached your goal. You have to sustain your goal by practicing and learning more. Music is infinite in that way. I would say technique is very hard to master since there are many techniques to choose from, but learning when not to play is the even harder. Knowing when not to play makes or breaks a musician. Great musicians know when to lay out and when to play technical.
