Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet Piccolo Music
I incorporate method books into all of my lessons, as well as any technique books that are appropriate for each specific student. The method books that I begin with are Essential Elements, the I Recommend series, Standard of Excellence, and Tradition of Excellence. The technique books depend on the specific instrument and ability level. I feel that it is very important to get every student playing actual sheet music as soon as possible, regardless of skill level. Read More
Instruments: Double Bass
My teaching experience has not been particularly extensive professionally. I have taught privately on and off since I was 20, however I have never really had the time to pursue it the way I am now that I am out of school. With younger students, we work slowly and reach milestones confidently to ensure the student feels they are achieving something while we work to promote healthy playing habits that won't lead to injury down the path.

Instruments: Mallet Percussion
I have been teaching Persian santur for 16 years and enjoyed being a music faculty for four years. Read More
Instruments: Piano Keyboard
My teaching experience begins from my college time til now. I personally love to play modern and classical music. Keep practicing and listening to different style of music is my focus to my students. Regular practice, like playing 30 to 45 minutes everyday, can lead to huge progress of learning piano. I will encourage intermediate to advanced students to the level that they want to achieve in playing piano. I will keep encouraging my students to play songs they love and so from there they will have motivation of practicing piano by themselves daily. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Ukulele
I am a pragmatic teacher. I coach my students in order that they succeed in all areas of life, not just in the performing arts field. My lessons ensure that the students mind and body are working optimally. I published a thesis at Sonoma State University, which validates that those who sing and play piano, are more likely to attend graduate school as well as think with excellent cognitive ability.

Instruments: Guitar Music Electric Guitar
My formal training and music abilities have led me towards a versatile path in the understanding of music. I am passionate about world cultures, and like to incorporate the elements of ancestry and sound healing in my own work. My role as composer sparked at an early age, when I first took the guitar and begun my first conscious and ever intuitive journey of channeling music and sound. In 2017, I was commissioned to score a full length modern dance production, choreographed and directed by Enrique Faundez, (Santiago, Chile). Read More
Instruments: Piano Trombone Euphonium Tuba Keyboard
I have been teaching music for 8 years now. My experience includes wind ensembles, jazz orchestras, jazz combos, and chamber groups. I currently hold a position at Chabot Community as the Low Brass Instructor and Jazz Trombone Instructor. I teach all ages ranging from elementary school all the way up to the collegiate level. I currently work for notable organizations such as the Stanford Jazz Workshop where I mentor various junior high to high school aged students who are part of an all-star auction based ensemble.

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Set a routine and stick to it! With that though, avoid getting into ruts. Don't practice the same thing over and over again just because it is easy or you sound good on it. While repetition is good and necessary, make sure you stretch yourself and attempt something new when you can. Sight reading is a great way to accomplish this. It's also a fantastic way to develop all of your skills and musicality. Finally make sure every practice session includes something you hate doing i.e. a difficult exercise, scales, whatever, and something you love doing, i.e a favorite song or etude. Finding these balances will make your practice sessions fly by and be extremely effective.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If they show interest, they are ready. Generally if they can count to 10 and know their ABCs and can focus on a task for 20+ minutes, they can take lessons. I recommend not starting them off with brass or singing lessons until they are at least 10 years old. Most kids simply don't have the lung development until that age to really be successful. If they are interested in playing a wind instrument or singing, it is usually best to start them off with piano and then work those other things in. I have developed breathing exercises for younger students that go well with playing piano to get them into good habits so when they reach a good age, they are set up for success.
When will I start to see results?
This is a very difficult to answer and very loaded question. Every student is different. While it is my job to give a student the tools for success, the practice time at home between lessons is where the real progress is made. My true job is to teach a student HOW to practice, so that when they practice, they are successful. The student must take it upon themselves to take what they have earned in lessons and practice at home. If a students has difficulties practicing at home, then we can work on finding a way to make them want to practice. Practicing is the absolute only way to get better at music. Coming into lessons unprepared will never work out for the student.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I have had many teachers who have inspired me to be a musician. From a very young age, my parents saw and nurtured my musical desires. My father sang in community and church groups and my mother was always singing. My first grade school music teacher got me involved in the school choir and band. My biggest influence as I grew up and decided to go into music as a profession was definitely
