Instruments: Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I have been teaching guitar for 6 years now. My teaching experience started in high school, when I was 17 years old. I worked at the Boys and Girls club and taught basic guitar and songwriting to kids aged 8-14. In college and in my first year out of college I taught private lessons to students of various ages. My main goal, especially for younger students, is to make lessons as fun as possible in order to retain interest. Read More

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing a student progress, or better yet, develop a love for music. When my students succeed, I feel as though I have. I feel as though every student should progress at their own pace and music especially should not be something that stresses the student out (especially when it is art). I have had many teachers that were very old-fashioned and harsh in their ways and this can give the student a distaste for music. Read More

Instruments: Piano Flute

For me it is really important to see students learning and advancing in music. Understanding every student needs and abilities allows me to set up clear and objective goals for every lesson. Keeping motivating the students through certifying their progress helps them to keep learning. It is also important for me that each student has fun, otherwise I do not feel like I am doing my job!

Every child has their own way of learning. Some are visual, others aural, verbal or kinesthetic. As a teacher I will adapt my lessons to each child needs. The basic structure of the lesson is review/present the new concept, apply it and at the end of the lesson discuss the new given homework for the following lesson. I will go to the student pace. I also take into account their reason of learning music and no matter what I try to make lessons interesting and fun for them. Read More

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. Read More

Instruments: Piano Saxophone Music

I am lucky enough to be associated with this thing called music. As a kid, I was introduced to the piano by my dear mother, a pipa player (traditional Chinese guitar), who has always admired western musical instruments. I was never too serious until my teenage years when I met several teachers and friends (to this day) who have shown me how to read music properly and what it means to read it properly. Read More

Instruments: Bass Guitar

From my experience at Berklee and working as a professional musician, I have learned that practice, self-discipline, passion and curiosity are the key elements I like to emphasize for younger students, as it helps to develop the motivation behind learning music and to play any instrument. I encourage my students to open their ears and expose themselves to any music styles because I think all of us can learn from it, and apply things we like to our own music. Read More
