For beginners, I like to start by teaching some basic versions of songs that you love. I will also start out teaching some basic chords and strumming patterns. I can show you the proper way to hold and play your instrument so that it is comfortable and sustainable. I will also be teaching you some scales which you can use to play any song you hear. Did you know that once you learn the major scale, almost every song you hear will fall on that scale? Read More

I begin with a meeting. A meeting about you...How you are doing this fine day. We will make GREAT MUSIC together and learn more about music and the world's vibrations together. I want you to tell me what it is you want me to teach you, and in the process I will learn how you learn. You teach me while I teach you; then the music will flow from ALL DIRECTIONS! =) My philosophy is a simple one. "If you put the work in you will improve." We will go at the pace that you desire and what you show me you are prepared for. Read More

Post Baccalaureate Educator looking to provide guidance to musicians on their great musical journey. My degree is in Violin and Piano Performance. I studied with professors that graduated from Eastman, Manhattan, Michigan, Boston, and Curtis among many others. Ive always been interested in discovering the many ways one could teach an instrument. After learning piano from the age of 5 I started violin around 10 years old. I come from a family of non-musicians so my situation was quite special in the way I pursued music without the influence of family or friends. Read More

My thirty years piano teaching experience began in Eagle Pass , Texas when my own piano teacher encouraged me to begin teaching my own students. I actually began my teaching experience by helping out my piano teacher's students' with their piano practice. By that time I had performed in piano recitals , played in the National Guild of Piano Teacher Auditions, and attended piano workshops with my piano teacher. My parents' and my piano teacher's encouragement was what gave me the confidence and motivation to pursue my education in music studies. Read More

Each student progresses at their own pace; therefore, I don't impose "deadlines" as to when a student should advance to the next level.  A lot of that comes from the individual's motivation and reason for learning the instrument.  During a lesson, I go over concepts in a given piece, help discover where more difficult passages will be, and show the student the techniques needed to master those elements.  The main part of the lesson, however, is on the STUDENT...and by that I mean PRACTICE to prepare for the next week's progression.

My performance and teaching experience date back to when I was in the 6th grade when I joined band class in middle school. I developed a love for music and performing early on, with a particular passion for practicing my craft. I practiced more than anyone I knew and my achievements showed for it. In all of the music competitions and audition, I never made anything less than 1st chair - all the way until end of high school, and all the way up to the state level competitions. Read More
