One of the things I love most about teaching drums is the opportunity to introduce students to a wide range of musical styles and approaches toward music. I believe that exposure to diversity helps students become well-rounded musicians and broadens their appreciation for different types of music and ways of thinking about practicing and performing. I am a patient and encouraging teacher, and pride myself on maintaining a positive and supportive learning environment for my students. Read More
Instruments: Piano Synthesizer Keyboard
My goal is to create an artist. I know many people who have incredible technique, but the music sounds lifeless. I create a fun, warm environment where my students don't dread lesson time and practice because I have given them daily manageable tasks. There would be nothing more satisfying to me than one of my students surpassing me. During a lesson, I focus on their technique, what is good and what needs a little more refining. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute
My approach to teaching can be different based on the age and level of the student. In general I like to keep the pressure off my students and above all find ways to make learning fun and enjoyable. My ideal lesson is one that the student will remember, whether it's a concept we talk about or a song that we learn. I try and teach my students more than how to play notes on a page and to learn songs, but how to discover and tackle projects themselves that otherwise might seem too big a challenge. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice French Horn Music Keyboard
I am currently a piano and voice instructor at Bronx House Inc. as well as a piano, voice, guitar, and ukulele instructor with Blue Balloon Songwriting school. The start of my teaching career dates back to 2004 when I was a music director and pit conductor for musical theaters at the K-12, Collegiate, Community, and Regional levels in the greater Philadelphia area until 2012. Throughout that time, I had taken on private students of all ages for both piano and/or voice lessons. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
My advice about practicing effectively is to define the amount of time you can devote to practice, limit the scope of what you wish to work on in that practice session (i.e., I can practice 1 hour and I want to work on 4 pieces), so I'll devote 15 minutes' practice time to each piece/song I'll work on. Listen to a recording of the song/piece (if possible), play or sing it through to understand where I need to improve, then zero in on the most problematic area to repair). Make a mental or physical note of it. Practice those same pieces/songs each day, reviewing the work of the previous day and teaching myself to play or sing another section better than before. Once I learn a passage well, duplicate this small victory in this small section 3 times, but not necessarily 3 times in a row!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If you are ready to devote time to sitting with your child each day for the joy and discipline of practice time, then your child is most likely ready to start lessons:
If he or she has been exposed to music since birth or early childhood and sees; hears his or her parents engaging in things musical (humming along with a song, playing recordings, attending concerts, etc), then he/she, is most likely ready to share this joy and delve into the knowledge behind the simple enjoyment of music. Parents set the tone.
When will I start to see results?
You will see results as early as the first week if you engage in daily consistent practice. All this depends on your concentration, motivation and consistent application of effort towards a pre-determined short term goal. The more ambitious the goal, the more detailed shorter-term objectives and mile stones need to be planned out on a time line, and daily practice adhered to assiduously towards these milestones. Realize that life takes many twists and turns and your desire for yourself or for your child may have been one thing in May, but may change dramatically in December, when the path of your own life's priorities shift.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
The first teacher I studied with as a child was (or seemed to me at the time), an elderly woman with a kind disposition. I adored her and looked forward to lessons each week not just because she served milk and cookies at the lessons, but because the treasures she taught me were tidbits I shared with my music loving parents who appreciated every thing I shared with them. Later, when we immigrated to this country, I studied with both the matriarch and patriarch of a musical family, who were fun loving, creative and very witty. They spread both discipline and enthusiasm to all their five children, which, in turn, extended to students who were privileged enough to be in their sphere. I also studied piano and composition with budding performing artists at Bennington, and some established faculty there. My experiences at the College were highlights of my formative years.
