My teaching style is supportive. I like to help teach a student how to practice as well as how to play. My fondest memories as a student were those where I was learning and listening to music with my teacher. Watching them react and feel the beats is an incredibly informative part of the learning experience. Learning of to digest material and make it feel musical and fun for the student is a huge goal that I have as a teacher. Read More

I care about students achieving their goals and getting their own flow. I always do my best to inspire everyone and get them focused and ready to commit to their music. I encourage students to become greater at that, but always keeping the joy alive. Depending on the age, discovering everyone's potential is the key. I make sure student get excited for the next lesson and goes back to their instrument right after we finish the class. Read More

I like to create goals with the student, not just for them. In other words, I make sure the student's opinion is always taken in consideration to ensure that every goal set is within reason and that the student genuinely thinks it is realistic for them. I encourage students to keep a practice journal where they write down the amount of time they practiced, what scale and technique exercise they practiced, and the pieces they practiced. Read More

Currently, I'm a nineteen-year old student at UCLA! I'm entering my second year come September, and will be majoring in both Piano Performance and Mechanical Engineering. I've played piano for about 15 years now, and have taught for around 6 years alongside my mother who is also a piano teacher. I've had the opportunity to perform all over the world, from Carnegie Hall to small cities in Italy and performing before some of the world's greatest artists. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practicing is about quality and consistency. It is very important to be focused on a specific goal when you're practicing, and to also make sure you are practicing the right things. You must ask yourself, why am I practicing what I am practicing? and what is the end result for practicing what I am practicing? It is also very important to be consistent with your practice. 15 minutes of focused practiced a day is better than cramming 6 hours of practice two times a week, since your muscle memory will develop much faster.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Your child is ready to start lessons whenever they begin to show a strong interest for music and an aptitude for learning. Since children are highly capable of retaining information, it is probably the best point in life for them to start learning. There are so many connections being made in the brain at this young age, that they will soak everything in like a sponge, and in turn it will benefit them in the long run. Music has so many beneficial aspects. It is one of the only subjects in life that is mental, emotional, physical and spiritual all at once.
When will I start to see results?
The more time and effort you put into your musical pursuits, the quicker you will begin to see results. The results that you want to see can start happening within a matter of days if you are having consistent and quality practice sessions. Music is a life long endeavor, so depending on how far you want to take your musical pursuits will determine the amount of results you will receive. Ironically, the more you improve the harder on yourself you become, due your high expectations and you will want to see even more results more quickly. It is a journey up and downs, and ups and downs that is all relative to the individual.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I have had multiple teachers that have inspired me throughout my life, whether they were teaching me bass, arranging or theory, and have found that they all have something in common. They all have the ability to connect with their students in an enthusiastic way and not bog them down by being overly academic and regimented. They are able to make connections with what they are teaching to not just music itself, but with other aspects of life. I think this is very important and is something that I strive for myself as a teacher.
