My teaching experience dates back to my college days,as I began teaching private lessons 17 years ago,and have been consistently teaching students in my home or students home for the last 17 years.Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for students,as it tends to help the students progress and gain a passion for the instrument.I have also found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the violin and motivate to practice and continue to learn.

As almost any instructor will tell you, the methods I use depend largely on the student and their abilities. Younger students usually benefit from learning to read music and a beginning method book is usually helpful. I strongly believe that ear training is the key to musicianship so I use the material we cover in lessons to help students develop good aural perception. I know that understanding music theory is crucial for communicating with other musicians. Read More

My teaching experience dates back to when I was in high school, I've always tried to show that anyone can express themselves on a guitar and play a little music once in a while if it makes them happy.Throughout my career as a teacher I have always dedicated myself to sharing knowledge that leads you to achieve your own style and identify with your instrument. There is nothing more comforting than watching a student develop and create their own style or just play and enjoy what they do. Read More

Instruments: Guitar

One of the most critical things about being a musician is the joy of performing. In order to reach this level, a student has to try a lot but also he/she has to enjoy the process. Achieving this balance is the key for every lesson and this is my priority. Setting micro-goals is essential for that and keeps the student motivated. Read More

Instruments: Piano Keyboard

I typically start each student off on a series of lesson books to help structure their learning in an academic way. However, I highly encourage bringing in classical pieces and students picking pieces of their own and bringing them to me to go over and learn. I’ve found that this keeps the students highly motivated and passionate about their lessons and practice. For beginners, the books are highly recommended, but for more advanced students who have finished the books, we begin classical technique exercises meant to help with the increasing level of difficulty of their songs.
