I use a very concise methodology in my instruction. I evaluate the students level, from there I make a step by step guide (of selected piece and etudes) to show the student their progress into the next level. I also encorperate ideas in theory, history, and ear training. Also if the student has yet to learn how to read musical notation. that will be taught along side with regular instrumental lessons.

Instruments: Piano
One of the things I love about teaching is watching my students grasp the musical concepts I teach, as well as see how they all relate. Each student progresses at their own pace, some faster, some slower than others. I tweak my teaching style to meet each student's unique abilities, so as to assist them in reaching their potential. Together with teaching my students the basic concepts of music, I also work with them on musical concepts and types of music that they are interested in. Read More
Instruments: Piano Music Keyboard
By giving piano lessons, all kinds of music knowledges should be taught. I prefer focus on both performance skills and the art/music knowledge in general. Homework is always needed because being able to play piano is the goal of the students.I will have my students practice etude, sonata/sonatina,polyphony pieces and modern pieces at the same time. Homework will be pieces selected from these 4 types. On top of that, I let my students know more about the background of the piece, study the composer, study the history and stories. Read More

Instruments: Piano Trombone
My teaching experience comes from a variety of different sources for the last 8 years. During college, I taught at my alumni as a summer marching band assistant. During that time, I also taught trombone and piano lessons to students around the Waco area. I have also taught as a elementary music teacher for two years, and I bring those skills with me to my lessons studio. For students of all ages, I give out as much encouragement and guidance as I can, but ultimately, I want students to become their own critiques. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Viola
It is important that each student progresses at their own pace, so I craft custom lessons for each of my students, making sure that whatever their ability level, they are learning to have a passion for music. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Creating a clear, achievable goal each week gives the student a feeling of accomplishment, and makes them eager to learn more. Read More
Instruments: Piano
At an early age, I knew music was what I wanted to do with my life, and how I knew I would be able to touch people. My teaching experience goes back to my second year at my university and I fell in love with teaching after the very first lesson. In a never dull, quick paced setting, that accentuates each individual student's needs, I hope to never leave you bored, yet eager for the next session. Read More
Instruments: Piano Trumpet Recorder Music Keyboard
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
If I weren't a musician I would be an artist. But I am a musician. Music has been and always will be my life. It would be neat to travel around and share my music in various places.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Favorite tyles of music, classical, praise, contemporary, jazz . My favorite style of music to play is contemporary christian music. I write and play it for God, like Beethoven, Bach, Mozart, They all played in the church. My style is different than classical.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a BA in Music Education. I had planned to be a band director as my dad and direct bands, but I became an Elem. music teacher after doing my student teaching. I am certified in all -level PK-12 music education. I also write songs. I have a love for Music Theory, and how chords are arranged in music. Performance I traveled and played in different venues such as concerts and churches in my younger 20-30 with my music ministry. I played live concerts, you can find these on youtube, and on my reels on fb too.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A practice session for me could last hours or minutes depending on what I am needing to go over. I love playing the instruments, so anything I work on is practiced over and over.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I like to use Faber and Faber for piano, because they write interesting songs and tend to use familiar tunes for beginners.
I found an awesome website. I use 8notes.com. Free music.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I've always had music in my life my father was a band rector my grandfather was a music man he started music and places that didn't have music. My grandmother was also a music teacher. I started music when I was in kindergarten playing the trumpet and then when I got older I started playing the piano. I went to college we became a music teacher and taught for 23 years in public education. In 199 1 92 I started writing songs and performing on the side in churches. I took lessons most of my young life but quit in my high school years. Yes I do regret because I could have really improved a lot my piano playing skills.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I play piano and trumpet. Trumpet was my major instrument. I fell in love with the piano in college. I picked up the guitar and am self taught to play chords. I write songs using the piano and guitar.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing to master on the trumpet is playing high notes, triple C's and keeping your embouchure just right. Keeping the space needed to send the air through the mouthpiece.
The hardest thing to master on the piano is dexterity, speed in playing.
