My teaching style is varied to the wants,ability, needs of the student. each lesson is designed to acheive these goals. This will increase learning,practicing, and desire to do so.

One of the greatest sources of joy and exhilaration I have experienced throughout my teaching career occurs every time one of my students performs, and I get to witness the hard work and determination they have implanted into their playing. Every time they smile while playing their instrument is the single most rewarding feeling I have encountered in my years as a teacher, and I relish the opportunity to bask in that feeling every chance I get.

I help the student to focus their mind on what they are doing in the moment in playing the piano piece. This is most important for a student to practice focusing their hand and eye coordination, helping the brain to "think on its feet," and etc. where in focusing this also helps the student to focus on their Math, English, and Science studies in school. For the intermediate and advanced student the same holds as to letting the student learn at their own pace and to focus as I teach them techniques to play more difficult music, and to instruct the student at this level in the knowledge of how to memorize the piece.

My teaching experience dates back to my high school days, as I began teaching private lessons part-time 7 years ago, and have been consistently tutoring students in Boston for the last 3 years. Encouraging regular practice on a consistent schedule is one of the key points I like to emphasize for younger students, as it tends to help the student progress and gain a passion for the instrument. I 've also found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy the piano and motivate them to practice and continue to learn. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I am a constructivist teacher. I like my students to drive their lessons. However, there is a structure to the lesson. There is always a warm-up, theory and/or sight-reading, and choice time, where the student works on something they have chosen, and then time to work on something I have chosen.\ Lessons always end on a positive note!

For beginners (piano) , 5 years and above, Hal Leonard, John Thompson, play, rest, play the piano together, For vocal students, I start by listening first to any song that they would like to sing, or find a song that will fit according to his/ her voice and make singing fun (at the beginning) and less stressing. Overall I make sure that my student is happy after a session. I hold annual recitals because that's where is see the ultimate produce of a one year hard practice. Read More

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 2 degrees. My first degree is a Bachelor of Arts from Oregon state university in Vocal performance.
My second degree is a masters in music from Brooklyn college conservatory of music.
I chose to pursue these degrees because I knew I wanted to be trained to the highest degree and be able to use that knowledge to continue to grow as a vocalist and help others grow in their own instrument.
While a masters was not required for the jobs I perform now, it was extremely essential in securing my role as vocal captain in my casts.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
Vocalizing is absolutely essential to the beginning of every session.
Vocalizing is equally important in my own performing.
I love vocalizing because it allows me to test drive my voice for the day.
Our voices can fluctuate so much day to day, it’s important to feel in tune with your own instrument.
My sessions start with plenty of vocalizing and eventually leads to work on solo pieces.
I always allow plenty of space to communicate with my students and give them the opportunity to speak about what there experiencing while they’re singing.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I am very open to all techniques. I grew up playing violin with the Suzuki method, which had shaped my ear wonderfully, but required me to learn to read music supplementally.
I also was exposed to Orff and Dalcroze methods from a very early age.
As far as vocal technique, I have had teachers who used the Caruso method and Alexander technique.
I am not married to any specific technique though I have experienced many different types.
I believe in a tailored to the student method is best.
My favorite teacher always asked me if what I was doing felt good. That was what was most important.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Singing is one of those things that is completely different than any other instrument.
You are exposing your entire self and making yourself vulnerable to the listener and to the art itself.
I think, as with most things, the more you master it, the more little things you find that you want to improve. Living in the imperfection can be incredibly exposing and frustrating, but mastering is not about perfecting.
Sometimes putting down the paint brush is the most difficult part of mastering an instrument.
Some days you’re going to be in amazing voice and sometimes you’re having an off day. Both situations are useful.
