Instruments: Piano
My teaching style incorporates a fusion of what I learned from my teachers in Cuba, Poland and the US.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Mandolin Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
When teaching classical piano, I use technique books like Hanon, Pischna for advanced beginners and intermediate. Material can range from Bach, Beethoven, Schumann etc. Contemporary methods usually from an approved song book or possibly a show tune. All students will learn from the previously method technique books. Beginners we will use some method book like Alfred or something similar. Guitar: Mel bay or something for sight reading. Wolfhardt for intermediate students. Read More

Instruments: Piano Saxophone
My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began teaching private lessons during my summers off over a decade ago, and have been consistently teaching students in my home studio for the last 5 years. Encouraging regular consistent daily practice is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument.

Instruments: Piano Voice
What I love about teaching is that each student is unique and has different types of abilities and motivations to study music. Music is a joy, but in order to get the most out of the experience of playing an instrument, there is some work involved. My style is to work on manageable goals that build a strong musical foundation, while maintaining focus on the joy that inspired the student to study in the first place. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet
My first student was a NYC firefighter that I met in October 2001 right after the 9/11 terrorist attacks. He was looking for a way to distract himself from the experience that he had gone through. Working with him and seeing how simply playing a note on the saxophone changed his vibe and relaxed him, I realized that music truly heals. Since then, my approach has been to get to know my student well and discover how I can help them enjoy the learning process. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
quality over quantity.
it's interesting to hear all these stories about people practicing 12 hours a day etc and believe me, I've been there too! But when you are a beginning students, all these things can sound very overwhelming.
My answer to this is: you can't practice 12 hours a day. You can play 12 hours a day, that's something else.
No matter how much time you have to practice, spend it well. Focus on just a couple of things over your practice time and focus on just 1 idea at a time. You will experience that this is the best practice you can get.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
This depends on what instrument your child wants to learn.
Very young children need to be big enough to hold and play an instrument. This is why children can start earlier with for example percussion lessons.
Some children show interest by themselves, they start hitting pots and pans, start singing and dancing, or start imitating playing an instrument.
If you are not certain if your child is ready to start lessons, you can always contact a professional teacher and she or he will have the best advice ready.
When will I start to see results?
If the student starts from scratch, progress will be seen on a weekly basis.
For intermediate and advanced students, it depends on what material they are learning. Some etudes might take up to a few weeks, month, to show clear results of progress.
Seeing results is the combination of having a good teacher and being a good student.
When you get lessons taught the correct way, and you practice the correct way, progress will naturally be seen.
It also depends in the individual, some people are quick, some people are slower. And it's good to know that this has not so much to do with talent! I can be just a phase!
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My father was my first music teacher. He taught me the basics of the clarinet, drums and theory. He taught me how to read music before I went to the local music school. He inspired me by transferring his passion and love for music and art. Getting the right positive feedback was very motivating. Because he was also a high level performing musicians, I believe he knew his craft so well that he could even give me some life lessons at a very young age. And this very last thing is what inspires me the most. When I teach, I'm aiming for that as well!
