Instruments: Piano Voice
I like to get an idea from the student and the parent what their expectations are for music lessons. From there, the student and I come up with musical goals to accomplish for that year. We create a practice schedule based on the student's school and extracurricular activities and try to follow that schedule as much as possible. I also like to incorporate other styles of music such as popular Broadway pieces and Contemporary pieces into the student's repertoire so that they can have greater diversity in their piano playing or singing.

Instruments: Piano Drums
I like to set my students up for success. My job as a teacher is to help them reach their goals but also introduce them to other styles and methods that can lead to alternatives never before seen by them. I often set up a routine for the students to give them a sense of steadiness . The pace a student learns at is up to the individual, the important thing is that they learn the right way. Read More

I am an enthusiastic and dedicated music teacher who loves introducing young children to the wondrous world of music. I come from a very musical family as my father instilled in me a great love of piano and I have in turn inspired my nephew who is also a musician. I graduated from Southwestern University with a Bachelor of Music degree in Music Education. I have always had a good rapport with my students and I get great satisfaction watching my students advance in their musical proficiency. Read More
Instruments: Piano Keyboard
Witnessing a student's blossoming passion for music is truly a remarkable experience, and it forms the core of my teaching philosophy. I firmly believe that each student is on a unique musical journey, and it's paramount to nurture their individual progress. To achieve this, I adopt an approach centered on setting attainable milestones for every student during our lessons. These milestones serve as guideposts, allowing students to measure their advancement and celebrate their achievements along the way. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I use two pianos minimum for my lessons, along with recordings at multiple speeds in order to minimize the rhythmic mistakes so common in private lessons. Students are taught to make the connection between what they are playing and hearing, and what others are playing and hearing. Composition and Improvisation play an important roll in this connection, which is why I make it a part of every lesson. Theory is also taught, and testing is available for those interested, but it is only an option. Read More

I have been a music instructor for 13 years now. I have taught different categories of students ranging from 2-65 years old. I started off as a classical teacher for a church choir, in which i taught for 7 years. My students find listening and playing their musical instrument very enjoyable, where personal practice becomes interesting and looked forward to. My students are driven by the joy of the learning process and this has been a reason they improved at a great pace! Read More

Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
That depends on what the student is looking for. If they're a beginner and already have a book we'll typically work out of any material they already have. I will likely supplement that with other books and hand made materials when the time comes for that. While many times the content of a book may not be exactly what I want, I can utilize exercises or songs to introduce new concepts for the student to work on. Likewise, I may decide to edit the content of a book to suit the needs of a student. Many times the content may jump over some crucial technical element that needs to be addressed for the student.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I almost always start off with tuning my instrument. If the tuning is good I will take a little time to sit down and clean my fingernails up. I mostly play classical guitar so getting the shape of the nail suitable and clean will help me produce the tone I want. From there I focus on each hand individually. For both hands I keep it simple and focused so that I can focus on good tone production and technique. From there I will work on scales, arpeggios, repertoire, and performing. This way I'm sure to continue working on improving my technical abilities and the music that I wish to perform.
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 two degrees in Music. I bachelor degree is in recording technology. I wanted to pursue that as a degree because I had played in bands and did recording of our own. I wanted to get to know the industry and better understand the technology, science, and art of recording. My master degree is in classical guitar performance. While pursuing my bachelor degree i was required to study classical guitar. As my studies progressed I developed a strong appreciation for the style. By the time I graduated I wanted to study more and perform more than be a recording technician.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I would love to play bass in a band a play Rubberband Man by Detroit Spinners. I love how groovy that song is!. The song isn't too complicated but it's just really well put together. Whenever that song comes on I can't stop my body from moving the until it stops. So I think it was just be fantastic to groove so hard and never stop moving while jamming on the bass. This is going to sound goofy, but I would also want everyone in the band to have synchronized movements too. That way everyone is having a blast!
