Music Lessons in Yorba Linda, CA

Instruments: Drums

For beginner, start with simply touching every part of Drum set, thus students can see how it sounds like, and how fun it is to simply hit the drums. After that I would start with hand technique, which is 3 basic stroke patter, and how to apply them to every part of Drum set. For Advanced beginners, I would start from getting touch with rudiments, and sight reading so that student will have well rounded skills, over all good drummer so to say. Read More

My first experience teaching came during my time on the high school drumline. My school couldn't afford to fund faculty to lead the drumline, so during my junior and senior years, I took on the role of teaching new students, some of whom had never even held a drumstick, to be performance-ready in a short amount of time. When I moved to Los Angeles for school in 2013, I began teaching drum and guitar lessons in my free time, to fellow UCLA students at first, then expanding to the greater Los Angeles community, teaching students as young as six.

I have been teaching lessons in my private studio and at studios in the LA area for the last 7 years.  Through my experience I have learned how to make lessons fun and engaging for my students.  I also have experience preparing students for recitals and coaching them on various aspects of live performance such as stage presence and stage fright. From a four year old that can't speak english to students much older than myself, I have seen it all! Read More

I'm a guitarist from a military background. My parents served and we ended up moving around all over the place which has influenced both my writing and playing style enormously. I was raised on all variations of rock from the classics of the 70's and 80's to my brother playing 90's alternative. I have a deep passion of music to the point that I am currently studying for my bachelor of music performance at Musicians Institute. Read More

Okay. maybe TV inspiring us to be better is a reach, but myself as a drum instructor I am there to do that very thing; I am there to support the student in learning, to stand beside them as they discover their potential and to make their hour spent with me "alive time". A time full of humor, learning and playing that the student will look forward to week after week. Read More

Since, I have played for multiple different artists, on multiple major record labels. I have also worked with some of the world's leading producers, the men behind songs you hear every day on the radio, as a studio drummer and/or bass player. Artists ranging from Aly AJ on Disney Channel to spaced-out mixed symphonic electronica with Paul Oakenfold, the English DJ legend. Though my time so far in LA, I have had the chance to aquaint myself with many other backing band musicians, for other artists or shows, from lead-guitarist Rafael Moreira (NBC The Voice, Pink, Christina Aguilera) and the guys gigging with Chris Cornell, to the younger rhythm section for Macy Gray.
