Instruments: Piano Guitar
I have been teaching music for about five years now. As soon as I started teaching myself music theory concepts and sharing them with my friends, I knew that teaching was something that I wanted to do for the rest of my life! Music means a lot to me as I'm sure it does to you. I love being able to time travel through different emotions and sounds, and the guitar has allowed me to do that! Read More

As far as books go, I prefer the Hal Leonard method, especially for beginner musicians. I combine visual, audio and kinesthetic learning methods to tailor to anyone's needs. After the basics are taught or they're already learned, I assess the student's level and teach the student what they wish to learn to the best of my ability. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
Michael's approach to voice training is grounded in physiological and developmentally appropriate techniques. While this does not necessarily preclude any particular style of music, he believes very strongly that vocal health and well-being should take precedence in one's study of singing and that it is good for students to gain a diverse musical experience.

Piano: For beginning students who are children, I start by teaching out of the Faber Piano Adventure books. I find that they focus on the more exciting aspects of music, such as sight reading. This is different from the Bastion books which I think focus too much on more challenging (and boring) methods such as articulation. The Faber books are great because they have fun short songs that the student can play with the teacher in a duet. Read More
Instruments: Piano Music Keyboard
I am a Taiwan-born pianist based in Maryland, USA. My commitment to music is driven by a passion of infinite potential in Collaborative Piano. I am committed to creating many events which combine various genres of art. The reason for this determination is because I believe there is a strong connection between different art forms, and I love the way that I am able to perform music with new ideas. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I started teaching private lessons when I was in college. During my masters program, I also taught chorus. I have taught private lessons for more than 15 years since I first started. I teach all different levels from beginners to advanced levels, and I have also taught student between the ages of 4 and 80. Classical music for me is the foundation which can help students with many techniques. Using techniques rooted in Classical music can enable the student to be able to sing, play or even compose other style of music. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I've been teaching piano and voice in the Northern Virginia area for over fifteen years. I have worked at studios such as Jordan Kitts Music and Music and Arts, and have done in-home lessons at students homes, which I still do now. My students range from beginners to intermediate level players, and my approach combines popular music with classical, jazz and traditional styles. Of course, in the beginning they learn to play simple songs that they are familiar with like Frere Jacques, Old McDonald, Jingle Bells and so on. Read More
Instruments: Flute Piccolo
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am extremely proud of my Master of Music in Flute Performance and being selected to study in the studio of legendary flutist Robert Willoughby during my graduate studies. I was also extremely honored to be selected as Principal Flute for the National Wind Ensemble which performed at Carnegie Hall.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I always loved the sound of the flute when I would watch the Boston Pops with my grandparents. As a fifth grader I was also drawn to the compact size of the case and the fact that it was easy to carry around.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
I believe that one of the most effective ways to practice is to work on the material in small manageable sections. Within each section it’s important to identify which parts are the most challenging. Once identified begin by working slowly on the difficult part making sure that notes and rhythms are accurate. At the end of your practice session trying playing the whole section that you worked on and see if it feels better to play.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child is showing a strong interest in learning an instrument I believe beginning lessons with a qualified instructor from day one is extremely important. These lessons will allow your child to start off learning to play the instrument with the proper way to produce a tone as well as helping them learn the proper technique for playing their instrument.
When will I start to see results?
It is important to remember that in order to see the maximum results from lessons your child needs to be practicing their lesson assignments for the time period suggested by the teacher each day. Consistent practice accompanied with weekly lessons will provide the maximum result. Results will be much slower if your child is not practicing in between lessons. Every child is different however you should notice results after the first full month of lessons.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I was fortunate to have many influential teachers throughout my musical life. I began playing the flute in fifth grade band and from the moment I picked up the flute I was hooked. After trying several activities as a child and not really finding one where I fit in, I was thrilled to find band. It was early middle school when I decided that I wanted to pursue music for my career. It was the combined dedication of all of my teachers that helped me make that decision.
