Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I started my private instruction practice during my high school years, where I would teach friends and students from my school. Through my musical career, I have taught students from age 6 to age 65. For me, each student presents a new challenge to find when it comes to what he/she wants to learn. Each student also has different approaches to learning. I do my best to cater to each student's needs so he/she can gain an excellent understanding of musical, theoretical, and technical concepts that will help them improve their playing. Read More

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!

I am a passionate instructor who enjoys working with students. I graduated from the University of Massachusetts Lowell in 2014 with a degree in Music Performance and Music Business. Since then I have been living in the Boston area performing, writing, and recording with other area artists. When I was younger I had started my percussion journey with marching drums, and to this day I still have a great deal of passion for the musical style. Read More

I have taught as a substitute piano teacher at Laurie Ann's Music School (Orange, CA) and the Forte Music Academy (Garden Grove, CA). I have also worked as a Music Theory Tutor at Chapman University (Orange, CA) and as a Summer Band/Percussion Instructor at Valley Christian Schools (San Jose, CA). I have recently established my own piano studio and am looking to grow my studio! My role as a teacher is to foster a curiosity and passion that will lead to a lifelong enjoyment and love of music and music-making. Read More

My mom was a Carnatic music teacher. I had once subbed for her when she was late coming from work. It was fun teaching her students. My mom also worked with children with special needs. I have watched her work and I got inspired by her. I wanted to go into Music Therapy after seeing her work, as well as the experiencing of assisting her. I have had a troubled childhood, and music helped me. Read More

Instruments: Piano

I teach classical music exclusively. My strategy for utterly inexperienced students is to remove from the equation the difficulty of reading a music score, and just allow the hands to "learn" the keyboard by having the student repeating short musical sentences (either preexisting or improvised by me on the spot). Once familiarity with the keyboard has been achieved, or if the student already reads music, we move on to his or her first book, and I tend to favor Nancy and Randall Faber's Piano Adventures.

Instruments: Drums

I have been teaching since the age of 15. I've trained young church drummers as well as older individuals looking to either get back into drumming or improve their skills even more. No matter the skill level, my approach focuses on maxing the potential of the student. My playing experience spands more than 12 years in churches, bars, shows, and small business events. Read More
