Instruments: Piano Trombone Bass Guitar Euphonium Tuba
My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began teaching private lessons part time 30 years ago, and have been consistently teaching students in my home studio for the last15 years. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule 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. I've also found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy theinstrument and motivate them to practice and continue to learn. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I started to teach piano when I was in college, so I know how to communicate to students and parents, choose the right pieces, and tell them how to practice at home. In addition, I encourage students to perform and attend competitions to gain confidence and experience. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums Bass Guitar Ukulele Double Bass Keyboard Acoustic Guitar
I enjoy teaching and watching musicians grow in their abilities. I like to give a solid base for a beginning musician to build upon while keeping lessons fun and interesting. Patience is the key, because I remember when I started playing and the more I practiced the better I became. I like to take our time and practice every exercise slowing until we become confident and then we will add some speed. Read More
Instruments: Piano Music Keyboard
For young learners, I teach using Nancy and Randal Faber's Piano Adventures. For adults, I use the all-in-one Faber adult book. However, as early as possible, I like to get outside of the book and get a student learning a song they love. When it comes to learning piano (especially in the beginning), fun is a critical ingredient for success. In my lessons, I work with students through a lesson book, on repertoire they are interested outside the lesson book, on technique, music theory, and anything a student is interested in or curious about.

I love seeing and sharing my students passion for music. I can be rather silly and love to laugh, but I also believe that excellence is a habit. Therefore, I try to keep each lesson engaging and fun while also setting reasonable goals for my students. I also want to help my students develop consistent practice habits so that they can see how practicing leads to improvement. Lastly I want to help my students make music that inspires them. Read More

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
1) Start with known material to warm up and start thinking musically. Learned etudes are good for this.
2) Next do technical studies such as scales, arpeggios, use of ornaments
3) Play through new material that is going to be worked on
4) Work on the current focus project. Making sure that there are accurate pitches, correct timing, correct fingering, rhythmic accuracy and any difficult passages are given the eleven minute rule.
5) Do the work for a piece that you are going to memorize.
6) Conclude by reviewing material that has already been learned and/or memorized.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I was not able to complete my bachelors degree which was a performance degree in church music. I grew up singing in choirs and when I decided to be a full-time professional musician I started playing for church services.
From the time I started playing piano at age six playing for church was something I aspired towards. Sacred and spiritual music has always been part of my musical life and so do that professionally seemed appropriate.
Even though I did not complete my degree I have played in churches since 1987 and have used, besides piano, organ, guitar, mandolin bass and hand drums.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
There are many pieces in a many genres that I would like to perform. If I needed to choose one piece I think that I would choose W. A. Mozart’s piano concerto No. 22 in Eb (K. 482). This particular concerto is iconic and to be able to perform it with an orchestra would be a beautiful thing.
My second choice would be to play Mauro Giuliani’s Sonata in C Major, Opus 15. I have been working on this piece for a couple of years and hope to soon start memorizing it so that I can perform it on a concert stage.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Before I became a full time musician I worked in orchards, nurseries and greenhouses and got an associates degree in horticulture. I have also worked as a woodwind repair technician. At various times I have worked in carpentry, as a mechanic, a bus driver, a snow plow operator and I have worked in retail stores for books and music.
None of the jobs listed above have had the importance that being a musician does. So, even though I could do many different things I cannot imagine being anything but a musician as long as I have a choice.
