Music Lessons in Ruskin, FL

Instruments: Piano Violin

Motivation and devotion make great musicians. I started acquiring teaching experience in my last year of my education as part of my requisites to graduate. I was accepted into the Elemental Art School in Cuba, where my students were about 7 to 14 years old. After coming to the United States I have continued as a violin and piano instructor in Music Academies, promoting motivation, creativity and devotion among my students. I have realized every student is specially unique, so it is essential to get to know the students' interest and peculiarities to design the right plan to improve and facilitate the learning process.

All program students are assigned a daily routine to complete, song to perform, and focus exercise. For single lessons, I perform an inventory of skills, supplementary lesson, and assessment for an improvement plan. I select technique and training material in conjunction with any programs in which the student is currently participating (i.e. school band programs, other instruction, etc.). For more advanced students, consideration is given for playing goals, projects, performances, etc. Read More

Instruments: Guitar

My student relationships have all developed from people approaching me after seeing one of my performances, which is the same reason why I have wanted to learn from others. I've seen someone doing something that I have felt I wanted to do. My teaching experience has been well-balanced in terms of ages, genders, styles of music, duration of lessons and the reasons for taking lessons. I have worked with boys and girls from the ages of 9 through 16, as well as men and women in their early 60's. Read More

I have a wide range of experience in teaching music. I have taught over a dozen students through my personal music studio at Florida State University, and many of them have gone on to win auditions at the university level. I have taught beginners solid fundamental skills and I have taught advanced students to refine their musicianship and their technique. Much of my experience comes from the classroom: I completed my student teaching at the Florida State University Schools, and I taught five classes full time. Read More
