Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Piccolo Keyboard

My methods of teaching are teaching what and how to practice. The basic ingredients in music are scales and chords and space. I am a firm believer of playing with a rhythm section from the beginning. Because of this, I use devices such as playing with tracks, myself, and other people. I provide audio and visual examples using recordings and videos. It is a myth that, with music, you either have it or you don't. Read More

My teaching style is Patience to every student and developing, and keeping interest in learning instrument. Music is the Art!

Instruments: Piano Organ

My experience with teaching began during my undergraduate studies. I have worked with students in the classroom teaching elementary music as well as at the middle school and high school level teaching choir. In addition, I have taught my closest friends in piano and organ. While I was the staff accompanist at a high school, I taught the treble choir and gave piano and voice lessons during off-periods. I have thoroughly enjoyed teaching, especially when I see that students are inspired by music and are willing to take on the task of mastering their craft. Read More

My teaching style depends very much on what your goal is in deciding to learn to play piano. I can teach you how to play classical piano, piano improvisation, piano accompaniment, or how to play in a certain style with a musical group. Your goal as a student determines the approach we take. That being said, typically, I take a three pronged approach toward teaching: 1.

My students and I create goals together so that we can celebrate their little successes along the way. When I'm not teaching or performing music, I make balloon animals for birthday parties and community events, so naturally one of my favorite ways to celebrate our weekly goals being met is to make a balloon animal.

If you want a fun, experienced teacher who will teach you what you need to know and how to get where you want to be, I hope you'll give me a chance to give you a complimentary lesson. Read More
