Instruments: Piano Violin
For beginning students who are children. I typically start with Suzuki Violin Book or Hal Leonard's Essential elements. Once the students has progressed to have a grasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce some repertoire they can perform. For adults, I try to find out what music the students are interested in and as teaching basic skills, I will teach music what they would like to perform. Also I will guide my instruction to encourage their interest of playing violin so they can have fun with playing violin, not get stress about practicing violin. Read More

My teaching experience began in 2016, when I enrolled in a degree program in secondary education at Southern Connecticut State University. At Southern, I learned very much about human development, and teaching methods and strategies. I also gained over 120 hours of classroom observation experience. Upon graduating with a B.A. degree in Physics (Southern doesn't offer music education degrees), I was hired as a Paraprofessional in a New Haven Public School. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice Violin Saxophone Bassoon
Hey! I am a performer, and I love to find various ways to perform as a musician, actor, comedian, and teacher/tutor/mentor. I love to connect and communicate with audiences and/or students through my voice, my jokes, or my instruments. I graduated from Rutgers University in 2012 with a bachelors in Psychology and Theater Arts, and spent much of my time performing on stage in musicals and plays. I proudly identify as a "jack of all trades" and am constantly using the various mediums of performing to learn, connect, feel, and gain the opportunity to experience something new. Read More
Instruments: Piano Drums
I set clear expectations of the student in every lesson, working with them to identify a goal that is within their reach. Through consistent positive reinforcement, patience, and encouragement I help students through any issues they may be encountering. In finding objectives that are within the student's interest levels, this allows for a motivating experience that keeps the lessons fun and engaging. Read More

I have been teaching music since 2010. I used to have students back in my hometown up until 2012 when I moved to Boston for my Bachelors. I kept having students during that time during which I also worked as a Core Music Tutor in Berklee College of Music. There, I helped students having difficulties with their basic Music subjects such as Modern Harmony, Ear Training, Tonal Harmony (Classical Harmony), Conducting and Arranging. Read More

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal practice session for me is no different than what I expect from my students. For wind instruments I start out with some long tones, scales, arpeggios for ten minutes. Classical studies fro ten minutes. And improvisation for ten minutes. Then I take a ten minute break and go back over things I think I missed in scales, arpeggios I will go slowly go through things that I think need work. If I see that I have a problem playing something I will find supplementary material to gain more technique.
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 an undergraduate degree in music education. It was my intention at that time to pursue a career in teaching. Aside from the stability of a teaching routine I get great satisfaction out of helping others. What I found, out along the way, is that students have taught me a lot of things and their successes have lead to me greatly modifying and enhancing my instructional materials and techniques. Also teaching different instruments has enhanced my overall abilities as a musician and an instructor.
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
My most immediate goal is to play in a symphony orchestra. That is really my dream job. I am working on learning all the literature that I need to know in order to play at that level. I also may need additional instruments for a position like that. For example clarinet players may need an Eb clarinet or a bass clarinet in addition to a Bb and an A. I am looking at these opportunities and working on the music every day. The fact that I striving for this level of excellence will hopefully give my students some idea of how they need to approach their own goals.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I tried sales for a few years. It really wasn't for me. I worked as a public school teacher and I wasn't thrilled with that either. What I am doing now is good. I like private teaching and eventually I would like to play more classical music in either a symphony orchestra or in a ballet or opera company. I am also focused on being a soloist in the classical genre. The focal point of my practice is classical music and jazz studies. Commercial music does not interest me as much. I do not like to play in bars or clubs. Those places have too scary creatures.
