Instruments: Piano
I customize lessons for each student because of different levels, goals, and tastes. For children, I usually start with a beginning method book such as Alfreds or Bastien. I introduce the fundamentals and work at the speed of the student, encouraging daily practice. I like to keep my lessons upbeat and fun so I always incorporate pieces that are recognizable to the student. If a student has a favorite tune from an artist, band, or a movie I will find them an arrangement that best suits their level. Read More

I'm a thorough andconscientous instructor. I like to prepare my students well for their future musical endeavors, whether it be an audition, performance, or college coursesework. This is achieved by including technique, theory, and aristry in each lesson. I choose literature appropriate to the level of each student's advancement. I am also receptive to alternate ideas.

I am a passionate and disciplined instructor that believes that students should enjoy music at all times. In 2010, I graduated from Cal State Long Beach with a Bachelor in Instrumental Music. One of the experiences that I always enjoy in music is performing. I am a Los Angeles based musician that has worked with different groups, styles and artist. Another skill that I have acquire during the course of my career is the ability to arrange and write music. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Trumpet Trombone Synthesizer Recorder Euphonium French Horn Music Keyboard
I began teaching private music lessons in college in 2003. I have been teaching lessons consistently for the last 10 years from my home studio, online, as well as traveling to the students' home. I find great pleasure in hearing a student's progress, that's why I encourage recording their practice and having a consistent practice schedule. I feel it is important to give positive reinforcement and feedback to students. I am always excited to bring on new students of many different age groups! I believe it is important to keep the lesson interesting to the student by incorporating music for technique but also songs that the student enjoys playing. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Viola Trumpet Recorder Fiddle
My goal is always to take students where they are: beginning, intermediate or advanced and help them discover and develop their own love of music. I do this through introducing music that develops their skill and gives them the satisfaction of playing music that they enjoy. It is not only about playing scales and such but learning to play musically so that people they may play for in the future will enjoy listening to them and they will enjoy sharing what they have learned.

Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Mallet Percussion
I began teaching 19 years ago and as one drum student grew to two, then to the occasional piano and guitar student, I eventually was teaching 35 students weekly. I've been lucky in that I have taught such a wide variety of ages and skills. I've taught actors to drum for roles, writers the lingo of the jobbing musician, and family bands pop songs for the school talent show. I've always been open to scheduling whatever is easiest for the student, and I'm happy to do in-home lessons but since I began teaching the technology has advanced substantially. Read More
Instruments: Piano Clarinet
My goal as a teacher is to see my students grow not only in skill, but in their love for music. With this in mind, I make a special effort not to overwhelm my students. I know that every person has a different set of talents and strengths, so I design my curriculum to fit each students' needs. As a whole, the idea behind my teaching is to create a challenge without creating stress because at the end of the day, happy students produce great music! Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practice is often seen as a tedious endeavor, but I have always found practice to be a joy! As a teacher I assign repertoire that both challenges and interests my students, so while they are learning, they are also singing or playing repertoire that they are happy to be working on. As they progress and grow more skillful, the repertoire becomes more complex so that there is always a level of challenge to ensure that they are both enjoying themselves and learning in the process!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Any curiosity or interest is enough to work with! The lessons adapt and evolve with the child, and as she or he matures, the lessons will do so as well! I have taught students as young as 4 years old, and although their attention span is shorter, their ability to retain important musical knowledge is fascinating! They can learn full songs by heart, memorize the piano using helpful songs, and remember musical terminology that will really give them a leg-up advantage as they progress through music lessons!
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a Bachelors of Music in Commercial Vocal Performance. This a rare degree to find because most school only offer Vocal Performance Degrees in Classical or Jazz, and while I did begin my studies in Jazz (which I do love very much), I felt that something was missing and I wanted my education to be rooted in the present, not the past. That was why I joined the music program at CalState Los Angeles, because there the curriculum allowed room to full express my voice and my abilities as a singer-songwriter. I am very glad I chose this path, because it really helped me hone not only my voice but my ability to write and perform music for live audiences.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I decided rather early on, at about 15 years old, the music was really what I wanted to do. As my abilities progressed, I found that people were really moved by my singing and my songwriting, and there was a sense of responsibility to continue my musical education to fulfill some abstract goal of making music in the future as a career. That goal has become much clearer as an adult and I am so happy that I chose this path of sharing my music and my abilities with audiences and students alike.
