Music Lessons in Kingsburg, CA

Instruments: Piano Voice Music Keyboard

I am from a family of musicians. As a child I performed all over California. As an adult I still perform and teach piano, composition, and voice. I also have been successful in teaching through distant learning so although I am located in California, I am able to reach my students and make a difference in their musical lives. I am an accomplished composer, pianist and vocalist. As a piano student I was asked directly into the piano Masters program at California State University Fresno thus bypassing the bachelor studies.

I always teach based of what the student knows and/or what the student is interested in. I teach technical aspects, as well as repertoire and music theory. A healthy vocal sound is our number one priority. I integrate music theory within a students music lessons through their repertoire. Students will become familiar with sight-singing melodies and rhythms of various levels. I will introduce repertoire appropriate for the voice type and technical skill level. Read More

Instruments: Lute

In my personal and professional opinion, all students deserve individualized lesson plans. Methodology is the vessel for teaching, and without a strong method, one can not teach. I do pride myself on creating lesson plans solely based on the players level, goals, abilities and choice of repertoire. Method books generally contain the "how," but not the "why." The "how" is simple, but to understand "why" is different all together. For instance, knowing "why" the thumb needs correct posture will tell you "how" to place it. Read More

Instruments: Trombone Euphonium Tuba

I start my first lessons by having students play their favorite song. I do this only for students who have played the trombone before. I use this to see what level they are at.

I also encourage to students to practice at least 1 hour a day. Read More
