Instruments: Piano
I began formal piano instruction at age 5, continuing into my late teens, and again in adulthood. I have been fortunate to accompany ensembles, vocal soloists, choirs, Holiday parties, community events, so therefore am able to teach others from my experiences. I have hosted many recitals with my students that like to participate. My knowledge has shaped this incredible passion for music that I have. Having successfully owned/operated my own studio, teaching private piano, music/arts/crafts, held recitals, for 30 years. Read More

I have a very personal and relaxed way of teaching that helps each student enjoy and advance on their chosen instrument at their pace. I prefer 60 minute sessions to have the time to fully evaluate and advance from the previous lesson and to move on to new material. I use the student's preferred style of music to teach them how to play, and expand their styles and technique from there. Read More

I believe I am a friendly guy at heart, so I tend to be friendly with the students. There are times where I have to tell them, for example, "You haven't been practicing.". But I try my best to do that in love while encouraging them when I see even the smallest improvement. I feel as though the key is to play as much as possible. That can be hard to do when you feel like you don't know how to play. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I teach music as a way of life. To be able to inspire, motivate and enrich a student's life through music has limitless possibilites. Strengthening one's self-esteem and dynamic expression through music can tranform one's life. Everyone has the potential to create. It takes willingness and courage to go beyond the musical note. My commitment as a teacher is to give students the opportunity to express themselves through music in their own unique way. Learning to play a musical instrument can be fun! Read More

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace with the encouragement of the teacher to encourage their musical goals with a consistent desire to progress. No two teachers teach in the same way, just as no two students will learn in the same way. A teachers style is based on their educational philosophy. Read More

How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
- Is your child interested in music? A lot of this will depend on the exposure and enjoyment they have had with the music in their lives up to this point.
- Can they pay attention for at least 5 minutes? Do note that their attention spans will increase as they continue to practice.
- Are they willing to commit to at least 30 minutes practice every day? Talk to them! Especially as they get older, you will want to do this.
- If they can already read, it will be easier, though I've had many students that have learned to read music first.
- Are You ready to work with them? All ages need at least some parent attention, the younger they are the more you will need to work directly with them, full time.
When will I start to see results?
This question can be very variable. The standard is 7 years to mastery. You should be prepared to stick it out. However, you should see a few things on the first day. Aside from that, a great deal depends on how much they practice and how Effectively they practice. If the practicing is sloppy or haphazard, without taking the time to check all the details first and then put it together using the method mentioned above for working a piece up, they may never fully work a given piece up.
Music is full of patterns. The students need to learn to see and hear them. Learning the music 1 step at a time allows this. Typically 2 to 8 months to be able to play very simple Christmas songs using standard notation, depending on age and practice habits.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
1 - Look the piece over, very well. Looking for patterns and the overall shape of the music. Check all basic details, such as: Clefs, Key Signature, Time Signature and any directions on how the music should be played.
2) Take it apart. Look for sticky spots that might give you trouble. Decide how you will handle it and then practice them.
3) All practice should include: Making sure that you know all the letters, Clapping and then Tapping the rhythms out, Playing hands alone first and Then hands together. Practice SLOWLY to start and then very gradually increase the tempo until you are at full speed. Also, start by practicing section by section. It's a much more efficient and effective way to learn.
