I have had numerous private students over the years in New York, ranging in age from 6 to 40 and at all abilities. I also taught briefly in Minnesota, assisting students at St. John's Prep School. I have also taught in Tokyo, Japan both privately to children and group lessons in an elementary school.
Instruments:
I work individually with students of all playing abilities. I instruct kids with special needs, as well as mainstream students and adults. My lessons include learning to read music, along with understanding proper tone and pitch. I am comfortable teaching the flute, clarinet and saxophone, as well as percussion instruments.January 1990 to present: Private Music Teacher Las Vegas, NV and Minneapolis, MN Personal Lesson Provider My responsibilities with this position include providing entry level lessons for beginning players. I also teach note-reading and proper fingering for each instrument. I also focus on tone and pitch. I have also worked with accomplished players in preparation for their professional careers. I am able to correct dropped notes, fingerings and ombuture.
Instruments:
My philosophy in teaching is that a good understanding of the foundation of music and the instrument will lead to self sufficiency in learning. I aim to teach my students not just to be dependant on myself as the instructor, but to be able to problem solve and learn on their own if they run into a question and an instructor is unavailable. I regularly practice sight reading with my students and keep them critically thinking about their music and what makes it up. Once I feel that the student is at a level to make critical decisions about the music they're making I will ask them to make their own interpretations of the music and help them along depending on style and appropriateness.

Hello! My name is Raphael. I am a passionate guitarist. Since the age of six I have been involved with music. Singing lead me to learn guitar. For the past ten years I have been performing with various bands in Colorado and Minnesota. I continue to take guitar lessons and sharpen my teaching skills. I have created, compiled ad produced a CD of my original music. I consider myself more of an inspirational mentor than a teacher. During our initial meeting I work with the individual to clarify his or her personal goals which includes the guitar. Understanding the student’s motivation greatly enhances his or her state of being happy, healthy and successful. We may revisit the goals as needed. My playing experience and vast knowledge of music material and aides will be utilized to match appropriate expediting goal achievements Opportunities to learn sight reading and how to memorize, as well as, develop skills in song writing and improvisation. Students are encouraged to bring his or her own material. Ample time and direction can be given to prepare for any type of performances. Bottom line is that my demeanor is of encouragement with a wholesome approach to life with your guitar.
