Instruments: Piano Voice Music

They are equally important. When voice students can sing with good breath support, they can sing any songs they like. I give many good exercises to improve their support without using the voice, so they can do those simple exercises at anytime. Learning singing is the best way to learn about ourselves, because the instrument is inside our bodies. How we feel physically and mentally will show in our singing. Read More

I studied music at WPUNJ with a focus on music theory as well as the business side of the music industry.  I began teaching music in 2006, and it continues to be a wonderful journey.  I enjoy inspiring, motivating, and encouraging each student to become acquainted with the instrument so he or she can become more thoroughly skilled. I'm skilled at piano and electronic synthesizers, in which I can teach Classical or Contemporary music. Read More

Artur Schnabel once said that it is wrong to have a method that students have to bound to, but that different techniques are required with every student. I learn this valuable lesson from experience and realized that every student is really a world of his own and finds interest in different things. For example, if the student likes math, then it is possible to incorporate the mathematical concepts found in Theory. Read More

My teaching style is based on the goals of the student. If you are a junior high or high school student preparing for musical theater in your school or for community theater productions I can help. If you are a high school student who is thinking about majoring in voice at a college or university or conservatory and you need preparation in vocal technique, song literature and proper language diction I can help.

I have had the honor of playing in jazz festivals across Canada and in the States as well. Read More

I began teaching when I was 17 and have a pretty busy schedule of up to 35 students a week! Many of those students still continue to take lessons after 3 years of instruction and have improved beyond their original goals. I find that each student has different interests (rock, jazz, classical, pop, etc.) which is why I enjoy focusing on what they want to learn. Other students do not know exactly what they want to learn; however, they just want to improve in playing their instrument all around. Read More

Instruments: Piano

I am a life-long musician who has studied classical music tirelessly from an early age. As a competitive pianist, I accomplished many dreams early in life and had retired from performing by age 18. I took every opportunity to perform - from accompanying the high school choir to performing at Carnegie Hall. Now, I find myself anxious to start teaching again as I can never really leave music behind. Read More
