Nothing like strengthen the relationship between student and instrument. This can be accomplished by providing a custom musicial lesson plan for the grow and development of every student.

Inspiring new students to develop enthusiasm for music is incredible. I believe that every student learns in a different way and progresses at their own speed. I set attainable goals each week and give students the tools they need to be great even when they are not in the lesson space. By tailoring my lesson to the student's abilities and preferences, students learn to develop their own musical direction and appreciation. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Violin
In college, I taught a handful of beginning violin students. Throughout college and my years post grad, Ive taught private and group dance lessons and focus on technique and confidence. I apply the same concepts to my music lessons and love helping students discover their personal voice. I encourage regular practice and personal compositions. Every student is different and I am hopeful to find the system that works for each one. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin
I have taught private lessons, part time for over 15 years. The instruments I teach are the piano and violin. I find that students progress more with regular short intervals of daily practice. I like to make the music fun with songs that children like and then have other books with the basics. For adults I like to start with folk songs, classical music, and showtunes. My students learn with a variety of books from a lesson book to a notes speller to a classical book. Read More

My go-to books for Drummers, beginners and advanced are 1. Advanced technique for the modern drummer by Jim Chapin and 2. Stick Control by George Lawrence Stone. No matter what you listen to, the material in these books can be applied to any style. Another tip is to learn what influenced your favorite players. I Guarantee every one of your favorite drummers has studied this book. It contains beginner techniques through the most prominent advanced skills. Read More

Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone French Horn Tuba
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
For beginners, I like to use the Hal Leonard Essential Elements books. Intermediate students will practice their technique with Clarke's technical studies and some of Arban's beginning lessons. For the more advanced players, I will give them the more challenging lessons of Arban's and the beginning lessons of Claude Gordon's book if they have not played it before. Essential Elements 2000 is a book that provides a step by step guide for the beginner students, it also comes along with a CD with all the songs that are in the book. The Clarke and Arban's books are two of the most popular and respected books that trumpet players from all levels use. These are two books that even professional and successful players still use everyday.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The control of the sound throughout the entire register of the instrument is the most difficult thing to achieve. Even the most successful and experienced trumpeters can still struggle with this and still practice every day to improve. When bad habits and techniques are acquired on the trumpet, they can be very difficult to change and at the same time it greatly effects the endurance. For this reason, I spend a lot of time getting my students to play as relaxed as possible, even if it means that they cannot get a sound right away, creating a relaxed feeling will help them overcome the challenges that will be presented when they begin to take on more difficult music.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Throughout my musical career, I have been lucky enough to play with many different professional classical and jazz orchestras outside and in the United States. I am also proud of being a part of different jazz festivals in Philadelphia, New Jersey, Knoxville, and Cuba. Personally, Christmas concerts are my favorite venues because the audience knows all the music and everyone is happy and excited to celebrate the holidays with our music. While working at a music school in my home country Venezuela, I had the opportunity to inspire and teach a large number of students who did not have previous musical experiences.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
When I was about 10 or 11 years old, I was watching a cartoon on the television. At the end of the episode, the three little pigs began to play jazz and the bad wolf was playing the trumpet with them. This music and the trumpet caught my attention and I asked my parents what kind of music this was. They replied, this is jazz. I then found out about a famous jazz trumpeter named Louis Armstrong and would listen to his music everyday while riding the bus to school. After a few months, I asked my parents if I could have a trumpet and begin to take trumpet lessons.
