In the first lessons, I explain the the beginner students the basic functionality of the instruments, the proper way to hold the instruments, how to produce a clear sound from the instruments and a Major scale ascending and descending, the one from which the first lessons or the next lessons is written.

Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet Ukulele Recorder French Horn Music Keyboard

Orff and Kodály are the requirements throughout my college study, which I integrated into my teaching and found it helpful for developing students' sense of music. I am familiar with the major piano teaching system, including Faber, Bastien, Alfred and Baker. I evaluated the student's instinct on the piano at the first lesson to decide which material is good for them. I will encourage them to find the music they want to play, more importantly, I will adjust the music to their level so they can enjoy it more. Read More

Instruments: Bass Guitar

For beginning students I like to focus attention on fundamental technique on both hands, making sure that they use the correct finger positioning on the bass. As they advance, the student will begin to know the whole fretboard through scales and arpeggios (in all keys) so the student knows where all the notes are in the instrument. For intermediate to advanced students I recommend books like "Connecting Chords with Linear Harmony" by Bert Ligon, "Fingerboard Harmony for Bass" by Gary Willis, "Funk Bass Fills" by Anthony Vitti, "The Latin Bass Book" by Oscar Stagnaro and "The Essential Jaco Pastorius" by Jaco Pastorius.

Instruments: Trumpet Trombone Euphonium French Horn Tuba

Jacobs approach of "song and wind" is the basis for my teaching style. It is essential as a brass player to focus on hearing the sound in your mind, training your ear, and allowing your body to produce the result without intervention.  To train students to hear the sound, to learn to play with others, I believe strongly in demonstrating examples on the trombone for the student, playing things back and forth, and sometimes playing together.      Read More

Instruments: Trumpet

I believe that every student i'ts by him self or her self a big star, and I work hard to help them to shine. Nothing is more rewarding than see my students develop as big artists. I try to give them all my passion to conect them to the music as the same way I feel and live with the music. I like to teach no only just about the trumpet, but also how music is part of everithing in life, trying to inspires the students to go on, and make that dream their own. Read More

I started teaching since coming to miami in the year 2002. This is where I discovered that teaching can be a powerful way to help others improve and cause a positive impact. Little ones develop brain interconnectivity like no other discipline does (not even math!). Teens use it as a way to express themselves in a very healthy and powerful way. Adults have a very good hobby for the rest of their life, or a side business. Read More
