Instruments: Piano Voice
For beginning students, we start with simple scales, fingering patterns, short melodies, and based on that student’s needs and learning style, I decide which lesson plan to use (Suzuki, Hal Leonard, etc.). I use Tonal Harmony textbook excerpts to help with advanced theory lessons. More advanced singers receive more training in classical and musical theater technique. My philosophy is that every singer should be trained classically first. Early art songs and arias really help students focus on breath control, vowel shape, using their passagio, and expressive singing. Read More

I am in my late 40's, married, and the father of a crazy 9-year-old daughter. I started studying music on piano at the age of five with my mother (also a musician). I move from piano to alto sax, and continued to play it through to college, later switching to tenor. At age twelve, I started playing electric bass and have continued up to the present day. I started on acoustic bass at fifteen, and guitar when I was 30 years old. Read More

I enjoy teaching and watching musicians grow in their abilities. I like to give a solid base for a beginning musician to build upon while keeping lessons fun and interesting. Patience is the key, because I remember when I started playing and the more I practiced the better I became. I like to take our time and practice every exercise slowing until we become confident and then we will add some speed. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Synthesizer Music Keyboard
I began teaching piano and voice lessons in 1996 when I was a college student. I was trained to teach by the director of Studio 90 Music School in Massachusetts. I then went on to acquire my own students, and travelled around the greater Boston area teaching children and adults in their homes. I have also taught out of many local music stores. In 2009 I went back to school for Early Care and Education, which has greatly enhanced my skills and passion for teaching younger children. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
It’s very rewarding when a student develops an interest and love for music in their own way. Each student has specific needs to reach their musical goals, so he/she needs to go at his/her own pace. I like to set long-term goals for each student (whether it’s being able to play a certain song or a certain style) as well as set realistic short-term goals that he/she can complete in a week or so.

What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
One of the most difficult things to master on guitar is speed, and relaxation, of playing. As the speed increases, it can be easy to tense up, which slows you down. Contrary to what one might assume, the road to fast and relaxed playing is through relaxed and slow practice. It takes a long time and one must be consistent, which is also a challenging habit to build.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Some of the most fun I've had in my musical journey is performing in a Led Zeppelin and ZZ Top tribute bands. My band mates were so fun to be around and we all loved the level of energy we brought to the venues we played in Southern California.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I have had many students go on to utilize their education in many ways. I've had a few students pursue their own music degree at university. I've also had students attend university for other majors, and they were able to utilize the music theory they learned to get easy A's in their general ed categories. These student had an easier time keeping a higher GPA and had more time to focus on the work of their more difficult classes. I've also had students form garage bands with their friends in high school and beyond!
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
After playing classical piano, electric guitar, classical guitar, and violin, I finally found a style that suits my personality and passion in flamenco guitar. It was the "shoe that fit", so to speak. I love the exciting and unique sounds and techniques that are used, and I love introducing flamenco to people who have never heard the style before.
When will I start to see results?
Everyone learns at a different pace, but after a month students have generally become very comfortable with the basics and will be well on their way to mastering their first song.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My flamenco teacher is a big inspiration for me. His passion and love of the style is contagious, and his positive, excited, and encouraging attitude makes me feel very proud of my work. I love that he will play our material at full speed, and with his own style mixed in. Is like getting a short private concert every week!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Kids are sponges, and will be able to learn music very young. The younger they are, the more important it is to have a home environment filled with support, encouragement, and enthusiasm. If you're excited, they will be excited!
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
A good warmup routine that targets technique is essential. Practicing technique prepares you for any situation, rather than working on every individual song that you know, an impossible task when you know so many songs!
