Instruments: Guitar Drums Bass Guitar Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar

I have been teaching for a few months now, and I really enjoy it! Forming and shaping the next generation of musicians is a crucial part to keep the American culture intact and alive. Music takes practice and discipline, and everything else will come to you as a domino effect. By sticking to your practice routine and making it fun, your own fingers will start playing wonderfully without you even much effort. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Orchestral Percussion

I began my relationship with much when I starting playing drums at age 7. I played in percussion in school bands for a few years then I found the drum set. I found discipline and independence through the drum set, and soon started learning guitar and piano. I attended Berklee College of Music for Contemporary Writing & Production, with a focus in Drumset performance. While at Berklee, I played drumset/percussion in musical theater productions for other Boston colleges (Boston Conservatory, Emerson) and played with local bands in the Boston area. Read More

Instruments: Trumpet

As for the method I use to teach trumpet, it varies according to each person. It will depend on the age, the previous musical knowledge that the student has, as well as the musical genre that you want to learn. If the student is a child, child-friendly methods are used to promote learning without causing exhaustion in the child so that he or she will love the instrument. In the case of adults, the musical level and the genre that you want to perform are evaluated and based on that, the method to be taught is chosen. Read More

Instruments: Drums Music

No lesson is complete until the student has a solid understanding of the concepts discussed and demonstrated. "No pressure" is my mantra! Students will learn music theory, how to read musical notation for the snare drum and the drum set. I teach how to control of the drumsticks, starting with the loose grip and mastering the bounce and rebound. Understanding and mastering these 3 elements will set students on the right course for success. Read More

Instruments: Piano

I firmly believe that a love of music, over anything else, should be the driving force behind learning to play an instrument. I therefore try to instill in my students a genuine love of the art. This love then makes him/her want to practice! Practicing (and the entire learning process in general) should be natural, fluid, creative process rather than the heavy burden many young people make it out to be. Read More

Instruments: Piano Clarinet

I began teaching music informally back in my high school days, leading students in my section who had difficult times with their instruments. This led me to become more interested and passionate about teaching students in need of proper guidance. I began volunteering at after school programs, at risk youth programs, and local bands in my town to contribute to those in need. While in college, I began teaching student lessons formally. Read More
