My methods as a teacher are very vast. I have taught many people and my success in teaching is unrivaled. I am able to make my students change direction, focus, get back on track, use a tangent to further a topic and much more. I think most music teachers focus on the music and not enough on their abilities to teach. I have been a preschool teacher and filled various other educational roles. Read More

I am looking first at what the students know about music and what they can put into practice. Then according to their level i managed to teach them the 14 Chords on guitar in order to move forward in their ability skills. Then I will propose them to learn any songs of their choice and teach them the manner to play it ; arpeggio, Rythmic, solos. I can teach the students some basic of music theory for them to be able to read music and apply it on their instrument. Read More

My teaching experience dates back to my college years when I taught lessons at a studio, primarily working with young children. I met a fellow music teacher in a class of mine and she brought me to a store where I had my own private studio downstairs with students ranging from different ages. I worked with so many students, some whom stayed with me for the entire time I was working as a teacher. Read More

Ms. Kate is focused of developing student's joy of playing music. She chooses materials which suit each student's interest. She incorporates various activities so that students can enjoy their lessons. These activities include drawing, coloring, dancing, singing, etc. This helps to boost students progress and motivation. She also encourage students' performance in recitals - formal, informal, or even for family and friend. Recitals are great to boost students' confidence and self esteem, which is great not only in music education but for students' life. Read More

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Before relocating to Carlsbad California, I served as Worship Pastor at Living Water Community Church in Harrisburg Pennsylvania. I was successful in bridging the gap between the sudden departure of permanent worship pastor and the hiring of another. During this interim assignment, I introduced a more balanced selection of worship music more reflective of the diversity within the congregation.
In addition, last May, I directed an ensemble that provided the music for a play: "A Warm Heart of Steel". This play was set in Pittsburg between 1968 and 1973. We, therefore covered music of Sam Cooke, Aretha Franklin, James Brown, Donny Hathaway, and Lena Horne.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
There was not a particular teacher that inspired me. However, there were people in my community of whom I admired. For example, my cousin Larry, whom I idolized played for the church as I was growing up. More than the music, I admired the role he played in commanding the attention of the choir and congregation. My first musical mentor was Mr. Thomas Goodson, who was a jazz organist and member of our church. In a traditional Baptist congregation, he was infusing jazz chords over the rather straight hymnal renditions that we sang.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I did not choose the piano, it was chosen for me. My father was a diesel mechanic on tugboats in New York Harbor during World War II. He spent many weekends on shore in the barracks with no entertainment. In fact, the navy provided a piano in the barracks but no one could play. Therefore, he determined that upon leaving the service and beginning his family, his children would have piano lessons. I only discovered this promise to himself one Saturday morning when a big truck pulled up to our home and they unloaded a Story & Clark piano. We were in piano lessons the following week.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I recommend parents set a timer for a specific time; not less than ten minutes per day, but not more than an hour. Follow the teachers guidelines for what to accomplish so that the time will be effective. Plan a time that there is relative calm in the home and limit the distractions that a TV or other noises might create. I also advise that no pressure is put on the student if family schedules does not permit practice every day. Don't sweat it. We do not want the thought of practice to become drudgery.
