My teaching experience began when I was a freshman in college, and has converted to a full time position a few months after graduation.

I am a dedicated musician who loves music and likes to teach and share the things I know to others. I graduated from Galileo University in 2007 and I was a formal member of the National Symphony of Guatemala. I studied in the National Conservatory of Music of Guatemala and I began my teaching experience there for a few years as assistant professor. I lived in Rockford Illinois for 4 years and I moved recently to Colorado. Read More

Practice Practice Practice! and wanting to practice. Probably the most important thing in music at first. The biggest problem is method in itself. There is not just one way to teach everyone. Music is a lifelong study. It never ends. So learning should be the encouragement of accomplishment. Which has to involve learning some theory but focus on mechanical and listening skills as well. Whether we practice the same drum beat over and over or strumming the same chords its here that we find what we call music. Read More
Instruments: Piano Drums
As a licensed teacher with experience teaching pretty much every age (1st grade-adult) and skill level of students, across a wide variety of subjects (English lit.-music theory), I have developed a music program that gets students learning fast -- and enjoying it! As much as I love making music -- being part of a group performing songs live is a huge thrill! -- that's not my profession... My profession is teaching. Read More
Instruments: Piano Flute Piccolo Keyboard
Developing a passion for music and having the confidence to perform is why I love my job. I love seeing my students achieve goals. I believe setting goals and accomplishing them are important, so I support my students until the end. Being able to perform and having the ability to capture an audience, first starts with the performer. I believe gaining confidence through an instrument is possible. I encourage students to tell me their goals and dreams so I can do my best to allow them to come true. Read More
Instruments: Accordion
When will I start to see results?
In students with some talent, I see results within three lessons. In students with natural talent, generally after one lesson and a week of practice. If a child does not have, at least, some innate musical 'feel,' it is probably better to try another of the arts. I know people who are geniuses who can't sing or play no matter what their intelligence level. I know people who sat down at a piano when they were little and can play with the slightest bit of instruction. Look at Stevie Wonder or Ray Charles. Also, great jazz artists like Errol Garner, never had a lesson!
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
The first big one was when I played Mozart's Rondo Ala Turk at a talent contest when I was 10 years old. I was always asked to join other kids playing instruments and the neighbors had their children take lessons from me. When I conquered (that's the only word I can use) Malaguena at twelve, I was very happy with myself and all the neighbors and friends were telling me how great I was. I went through a period of plateau, then I played in a couple or rock bands and wedding bands. I became bored when my aunt told me that I should take lessons from Chelso Ferrari - It changed the way I played and gave me a way to make money for school. But just the accomplishment of learning how to play jazz chords, is what I am most proud of.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
It was known in the neighborhood that I could play well, so I was hired to play a couple of (very poor) weddings when I was about 14. Then by word of mouth and recommendation of my final teacher I played lots of weddings, barmitzvahs etc.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I learned to play quickly when I started, most likely because my sister and father were playing and I heard music all the time. Like most kids, I found practice to be boring and difficult. I learned backwards, I played mostly by ear and would practice parts of classical songs until I got them right and then put them all together. I did not understand chord structure although I could play Mozart. When I began studying with Chelso Ferrari, he opened up a new world to me. It wasn't that he played better than my other teachers, which he did. But he showed me how certain chord enhancements changed the sound of almost any song! My playing got better after one lesson (I was already very advanced on the bass left hand) He showed me that I intrinsically knew what I couldn't understand technically. Then I learned what I was doing by rote and I had to really re-learn what I knew already. Then I could take any song I knew and enhance it.
