Music Lessons in Homestead, FL

Instruments: Piano

I started teaching shortly after getting my Diploma from the National Guild of Piano. I started teaching part-time in college and eventually started teaching full time once I had finished. I teach all levels and all ages but I love teaching the little ones. I use a lot of games in my teaching to make piano learning fun. I use flash cards, timers, stickers, and prizes to reward my best students. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Voice Flute Bass Guitar Ukulele Music Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I first started teaching after I went good around middle school. I was giving charity classes to a bunch of friends from school who later decided to follow up their guitar studies academically and I gave them the foundation. I started teaching because my teacher said I was already good enough and if I could help him teach the other students, so I did until he retired and me and my Duo Partner took over the school.

Instruments: Piano Violin Cello

My teaching originated in high school when I taught a few beginners the wonderful  basics of the cello.  I've now taught for over 15 years and have brought all students of all levels to new heights.  When teaching, I explain what it is that I do when I play and how to learn this.  Just performing would not allow me to share my insights from years of my musical journey.

Instruments: Saxophone

During my time at FIU I was a Teaching Assistant with the FIU Marching Band. There I assisted in the direction and teaching of the marching band students, and attended all performances. For the past 5 years or so I have been teaching private saxophone students as well. My experience with saxophone consists of classical pedagogy. Classical saxophone is a beautiful and forgotten art that I wish to share with my students. Read More

Instruments: Voice

I usually build the lesson goals individually with each student by getting to know each other. One basic goal in all lessons though is to develope passion for music and for the human voice as a music instrument. Read More

Instruments: Violin

I began teaching violin to beginner-intermediate players as an undergraduate studying music education. My own teachers emphasized a consistent practice schedule and ensured I enjoyed learning, and I seek to do the same with my students. My career in communication led me to teach students of all ages and showed me how to create a comfortable learning environment, look for underlying patterns that cause and block success, and open dialogues throughout the process.
