I like to see students getting excited about learning new concepts in music. I also like to see music becoming a part of their lives and learning. I enjoy passing on what I've been given. I like to see music becoming a part of students lives and being an enjoyable experience for years to come. One area I specialize in is helping students with their band or ensemble music and giving them the extra help they may need to excel in their band or choir classes in school. Read More

My teaching style is diverse, I like to pull ideas from all kinds of sources so that I can relate things easier and hopefully make learning more fun. I also stress the importance of being disciplined and focusing on goals whether practicing or performing. My style of teaching depends on the student and his or her goals . My aim however is to teach them not to just play songs but also to fully understand their instrument and thus be able to write their own music , improvise and play with other musicians. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
In 2009 I started writing songs for Motivational Speakers. The direction of my lyrics went from stories about my life to consciously sending a positive message to my audience. I became involved with a band that played "posi" music and performed many of my songs. I joined the Empower Music Association and participated in their conferences. Music has always motivated me to touch people's hearts in such a way that they find the courage to follow their dreams. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Voice Acoustic Guitar
For voice, I like to start with making sure the placement is good and that the tone begin produced is nice and full. After that working on moving smoothly though notes while keeping the voice aligned, handling vowels and consonants, and gradually extending range. Repertoire is used to help support the lessons and gradually increases with the ability of the student. For guitar, in either the styles that use a flatpick or the finger-styles, I like to build a library of chords and progressions linked to an understanding of keys and scales (music theory). Read More

I began teaching at the age of 19 and within one year ended up teaching over 70 drummers weekly at four different locations in which I managed 2 of them. I then went on to open my own studio in 2007 to great success. Recently, desiring more musical adventures, I've decided to relocate to Las Vegas in search of more music opportunities in The Music Business. I have taught thousands of drummers and guitar players over the year and am looking forward to teaching thousands more! Read More

I love helping people learn music. I honestly believe that anyone can play an instrument with some work and everyone has a song to share. In 2012, I graduated from the University of Hawaii with a Bachelors Degree in Music Business. I started a band my junior year of high school called Local Uprising and we have traveled the states, opened up for some of the biggest reggae acts like Steel Pulse, Alpha Blondy, JBoog and Stephen Marley, we had #1 songs on radio and got nominated last year for Reggae Breakout Artist of the Year.

My teaching method is entirely student driven. Every student has different goals and different styles of learning. Because of this, the "cookie-cutter" approach many teachers take are ineffective. I take the time during the first lesson to ask the student what their short and long term goals are with their instrument, and from there I can start laying out a lesson plan. As I have more lessons with the student, I can observe their learning style and adjust my teaching approach accordingly. Read More

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child has not developed the necessary strength to hold an instrument, practicing will be of little avail as they need time to mature. However, regardless of when they can start, I would highly recommend that you have them get started with exposing them to all different types of music. This is especially true if your child is anywhere from third trimester to 2-3 years of age where they can either harness or "prune" off the natural born ability to hear music with what's been called absolute pitch or perfect pitch recognition. Plus, listening to music will inspire them to learn more about the subject giving them a great advantage that I never experienced in my early years. Help them out; it's really darn important to get them involved ASAP!
When will I start to see results?
If all goes well, the first day you should have seen and felt elevations by way of building passion and desire to learn and gain more from your future experiences. However, just as many people fail in many other endeavors in life, it is possible that if no efforts are made, that you will not see results, EVER! That's right, why not address the elephant in the room, which is to say, you will learn in due time that the student is the best teacher.
As my favorite teacher and professor passed on to me his phrases, I will forward them to you:
Embrace the Process,
Trust the Process,
Enjoy the Process!
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Being efficient is a product of acquiring and honing various tools. Over time they will allow you to master any type of music with ease and great enjoyment. There's a long list of tools that I, or any competent educator for that matter, can offer you. It's important to use one tool at a time for maximum benefit.
Three of the most effective tools I have come across for simple mastery thus far: is singing all of the melody, singing the harmonic layers separately - but treated like a melodic line, and singing the bass. It is important to note that while singing, we must have a clear musical intent in mind so as to transfer this musicality to our instruments. The final tool, for now, is practicing v e r y s l o w l y. It should seem meditative. While being fully aware of mind and body, we can pinpoint the errors of our understanding greatly with this tool.
Overall, if you give time and effort, in an accurate and consistent manner, and rotate the use of these tools, over long periods time but broken up in small manageable goals, one can achieve a staggering amount of progress in minimal amounts of time. It's fun to practice getting better!
From my experience, I highly recommend having a dedicated teacher to help teach and develop these tools with the student.
