Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Drums
I am the students greatest motivator. I love to bring out the best in all of my students and help them discover things about their musical capacities that they never have before. I am highly enthusiastic and believe that every one learns at their own pace. Its never about how quickly you learn something, but about how well you learn it, even if it takes time. I like to acknowledge the students progress and their accomplishments because I believe it helps the student to have the desire to keep learning and progressing. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin
My first contact with music was during my early childhood, when I took piano, guitar and violin lessons. Growing up, I was always active playing with several youth orchestras and various ensembles, ranging from classical to popular and folk music. I studied piano and composition at the California State University, Sacramento, where I had the opportunity to study with world class musicians and be part of cutting edge orchestras and choirs; during my college years I went on several tours with a choir, performing in venues such as Carnegie Hall, N.Y I currently perform as pianist and accompanist with Opera singers from the area, and also compose upon comissions.

Instruments: Piano
I try to make sure students can progress at their own pace based on their own skill level and experience with the instrument. I try to instill diligence patience and not being too hard on yourself as the top priorities. I want student and teacher interactions to be casual enjoyable and fun but at the same time serious with regards to the composer's intentions in the music. Like watering a flower it doesn't happen overnight the flower takes time to grow same with a piano student there needs to be incremental growth not overnight success. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I encourage progress over awards. It is vital that the singer be able to rely on their fundamental and progress at their own pace to be able to build healthy habits that will last for a lifetime of singing. I try to understand the goals and desires for all students to be able to help them reach that goal in a healthy progression. I am very challenging but singing if supposed to always be fun as well or there is no use in doing it every day. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
It is important to me that a student both enjoys and learns from their lessons. I strive to make lessons well-rounded. While piano instruction is certainly central to each lesson, I also spend time teaching music theory and ear training. I typically use Alfred's Basic Piano Library method books to achieve this well-rounded approach. The ultimate goal I maintain with students is to see them become independent and proficient learners, as well as to see them making music as a regular part of their lives. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Electric Guitar Classical Guitar
I am currently working on an BM in Guitar Performance at the University of Texas at El Paso where I have been taking lessons from Hiram Rodriguez. I first started playing guitar 10 years ago learning rock songs and things of that nature and about 6 years ago I started learning classical guitar. I have taken lessons with John Siqueiros for a short time as well as a master student from the University of Texas at El Paso Edgar Camargo and I took some jazz lessons from Mr. Read More
Instruments: Piano
In teaching an instrument, it is important that the student shows interest in playing an instrument, this way, when learning, a student can develop a passion for music. There is nothing more rewarding, then seeing a person develop a passion for Classical Music. One of the most important things in learning Classical Music is to be constant. Classical Music not only challenges your ability to play the piano, but it takes time to master it and teaches you the power of transmitting emotions through music. Read More
Instruments: Saxophone Music
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If it is a child, the lesson must be set up as a game and the child must be engaged. I still recommend an introductory interview with the teacher
When will I start to see results?
The results are directly proportional to the student's interest in music. I had a Chinese student who wanted to learn at all costs, starting from almost zero and in a couple of months, with a frequency of two hours a week. He started improvising jazz - at a good level for a neophyte - with a good timing and an intoned sound. The student practiced every day and followed the lessons with a lot of interest.
It depends on the student's ability and willingness to apply themselves.
The teacher has the task to push the student and stimulate him/her, the student has the task to participate in the lessons actively studying and preparing for lessons.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Yes, I was lucky enough to study with many musicians, many of them were very famous (as you can read from my CV), others were less known but equally important in my journey.
Each of them taught me something different. The rules are fundamental but it is more important how you use them in your own language.
That's why every musician is different from one another. The teachers helped me to see the different aspects and above all, they transferred to me their love and respect for music.
I think I was lucky, but I also think this happened because I wanted to learn how to play jazz
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Organize well the time you have available for your daily practice; use the clock! Divide the time you have, the number of exercises you need to do.
Remember to organize your week well, write your targets for the week or period in a notebook, and breakdown your targets for the time you have at hand.
For example, if in a week you have to study the major scale in all the keys, with attached arpeggios, divide this work across 7 days. Make sure you have time every day to repeat what you learned the day before. Remember that in a daily practice you have to face different points and you must also find the time to play freely. Do not be scared, if you organize yourself well, you can do everything. In class, I will help you set up your work at home.
