Very different from each other. Et.Al. I guess the "thing" that brings me joy is experiencing the point when a student after a number of lessons scratches their heads and SUDDENLY they say " OH....I get it. Ya mean that...." YES. "So what this means is that this is...." YES. "So all I gotta do is this....." Yes. And then they will say " Gosh, That makes this so easy. Read More

Depending on whether it be voice or instrumental my methods will differ slightly. For beginning voice students (-12) I teach out of a folk songs book, and if they choose, challenging disney repertoire which adds an element of fun, but also is educational. for Intermediate students (12-15) I use the same folk songs book but apply more advanced techniques on proper singing technique, then depending on their level, I might do more advanced repertoire which fits them.

I choose the books according to my assessment of the student during the introductory lesson. The Faber Method is one of the more popular ones. I also use the Alfred All-in-One books series. As supplemental material, I use Keynote Speller by Shaum and Line a Day by Keith Snell. For solo repertoire, I select methods based on the skills and favorite pieces of each student.

Instruments: Piano Keyboard
Throughout the past 10 years, I have taught neighborhood kids and friends how to play the piano both beginning and intermediately. I like to encourage everybody that consistency is the key to learning (for beginners). Not necessarily practicing for long periods of time, but frequently. Better to practice for 10-15 minutes three to five times per day than for an hour or two all at once. I've found that the best foundation comes from scales. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Vocal chords are muscles which means it can be injured or raised. That is why the voice of people is getting changed according to their age. If you want to study professional vocal technique I honestly recommend to have lesson from teenagers because professional singing requires matured muscles. However, a basic mechanism can be learnt from young age and I strongly encourage to start voice lesson when they are young because bad habit is the hardest thing can be fixed when I have a private lesson.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
Yes, I did. I met him when I was in Korea. He is a good conductor and a good singer. When I joined a church choir, he gave me a chance to sing as a soloist many times. He said my voice is really special than others and he recommended to study voice. He gave a private lesson for free even though it was a short moment. He focused more on to teach how to enjoy singing. Also, he mentioned many times "if you enjoy your singing your musicality also can be shown with your body including facial expression. I was really inspired by him. So, I have been trying to doing it like him.
When will I start to see results?
As I mentioned above, muscles for singing are not visible by our eyes unlike other instruments. So, it is hard to get a result. Of course, some people would know their voice well in short time but others would not. Furthermore, if the student has a bad habit, it might take much more time to fix it. For this reason, I would say it takes much more time than other instrument. Generally, to get a goal or result, it takes around three months. So, if the student follow me with patient and enjoy their singing the time will be reduced.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
For singers, it is hard to have practice over two hours. So, I strongly recommend to sing with soft and natural voice through humming sound many times. When we sing vocal folds works hard, especially when singers sing high notes vocal folds should have big pressure. So, if it happens many times the vocal folds will be injured. For this reason, I strongly recommend for them to sing with middle range. As I mentioned above, it is hard to see your instrument (voice). If students sing alone too much, especially with bad habit it causes bad result. So, it should be fulfilled carefully.

I just exchanged a Lowrey Organ for a Piano so I can take in home lessons. I have played around on the organ for years, and probably have lots to unlearn.
