Instruments: Guitar Bass Guitar
As a rule, I let the student dictate what they would like to learn and where they would like to start. From there, depending on what skill level they are already at, I will choose what aspects of formal training that would help them to best achieve their goals. With beginners, I always pay attention to how they hold and operate the instrument to ensure that they do not develop techniques and habits that could cause them physical injury or significantly hinder their progress down the line.

My teaching style is all about enjoying music and the instrument. I can pick up when a student is frustrated, confused or embarrassed and adjust the lesson accordingly. Overall, I want my students to have fun! I enjoy teaching how to read music and once a few notes are learned, I start applying it to songs that my students really enjoy. I also like to teach scales and harmonic structure so my students can begin to understand what's really going on in the music they enjoy. Read More

When a student has got the basics down, I will begin to teach them songs of their choosing and recommend songs to learn. For more intermediate to advanced students, I will find their passion and see what they want to play. I will work to inspire them and get them to perform as much as possible. I understand that everyone learns differently, so I will make each student their own unique lesson plan in order to maximize learning. Read More

For stringed instruments, I uses the Suzuki method for teaching the basic repertory of the instruments. This method is an ear training method in which the student plays by ear. It starts out very simple so students of all ages can learn and progress very quickly. For learning to read music I use one of the method books like "A Tune a day" or Strictly Strings which teach the fundamentals of read music and music theory. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practice in small bits. Once you start overthinking or forgetting stuff you have to take a break. Studies prove for any topic you retain information for up to 20 minutes.
I highly recommend to practice effectively for a short time. It doesn't matter if your schedule is tight either going to school or working. You can sort out the most important things you want to have down and be able to improve.
Repetition is good as well. Those two will get you results.
For example, learning a song try starting with couple measures (small bits) and repeat them until you have them down, then move forward to the next parts.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Anyone is ready to start lessons at anytime. Music will develop different skills and will bring joy to anybody.
Having the desire of learning is the best thing to encounter in a student.
I personally wanted to learn music when I was 6 years old but my parents thought it was not the best time or that I'd quit for being too young. Later on they realized I was focused on nothing else but music to a point of graduating College and moving out of the country I was raised.
I want to give anybody the opportunity of helping them to do and learn what they want.
When will I start to see results?
Results are subjective to anybody's opinion and needs.
Results depend on the teacher and also the student. The teacher can give the material to the student but if the student shows no interest on keeping up, then the pace would be slower.
I'd rather focus on what the student wants to learn and start from there; Therefore, as a teacher, I can keep the student interest and will to keep learning and improving.
My interest is to show the students their own improvements from the first day to few lessons later.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
I think there is never enough things to learn, practice and improve. We always have something to learn as musicians.
We have theory and rules to follow, but there is always something new to do or deviate from the music theory that ends up being a hit on billboard every day.
The hardest thing to master is to know you have to keep practicing no matter how good you think you are.
It's challenging getting out of the comfort zone once you identified what you want or what you're good at on your instrument. Techniques and styles will always come and go.
