Music Lessons in Fairless Hills, PA

Instruments: Piano Drums Synthesizer Latin Percussion Keyboard

I have worked writing and performing music since the age of 7, creating my own versions of four-tracks with cassette players. I worked diligently practicing my instrument for hours per day, and build a solid foundation in tempo and understanding of dynamics. I worked in music studios and home lessons for the last 15 years with newer teaching techniques developed on my own through understanding how to teach each student as an individual person. Read More

My teaching style is varied to the wants,ability, needs of the student. each lesson is designed to acheive these goals. This will increase learning,practicing, and desire to do so. I have always taught in a way that my students develop a passion for music. There is a difference in learning music and making music. My students will always make music with expression and feeling.

Instruments: Drums Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Djembe

For all students, I start off with the basic fundamentals. Proper setup, posture, stick position, and technique. I then will hand write some examples and assess the student. From there I usually will use Alfred's Beginning Drum Set Method. Once the student has a grasp on that, I will focus on rudimental drumming and snare rhythms to accompany the drum fill portion of the Alfred's book. From there we move into more advanced books that include jazz drumming and complex rock beats as well as learning popular songs of the student's choice. Read More

Instruments: Voice

I have been taking voice lessons myself since the age of 15 and have been teaching since 17 when I was involved in a unique experience being mentored by my middle and high school choir directors as I knew I would be going on in Music Education as a college student. After graduating from my Bachelors program I began teaching both private voice and elementary-high school vocal and general music. Currently I have been teaching for 18 years as a private voice teacher. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice Keyboard

I have been teaching for almost 10 years, in Philadelphia schools such as Olney High School, Nueva Esperanza, AMLA Latin School for The Performing Arts, Taller Puertorriqueo, and Philly Music Lessons. I have been consistently teaching students in my home studio within the last 6 years. As music composition and music production are rapidly changing with the rise of technology, I also teach music composition with technology in mind. As students are able to learn and play keyboard and piano, they will also learn how to make their own music using music beat-making software such as Ableton Live, Reason, ProTools, and other DAWs.

Instruments: Trumpet Trombone Euphonium Tuba

To me, nothing is more satisfying then problem solving and that is what these lessons are. I help find the roadblock in the way of your student learning, and I give them the tools to fix it. As they practice more and more, they will start to figure out there own ways to fix issues. My favorite moments aren't during the lesson at the time, its the lesson next week where I hear the progress. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Voice Bass Guitar

I began teaching five years ago around the age of twenty. Now, at twenty-five, I have had the opportunity to teach people from all walks of life, with ages ranging from 6 to 60!  I encourage students to practice "perfect practice", which means they are as relaxed as possible when practicing (mentally and physically). Daily practice is also something I cannot emphasize enough, even if only for five or ten minutes a day. Read More
