Instruments: Piano Guitar Violin Cello Viola Bass Guitar
It is rewarding to see a student achieve a strong desire and a sense of accomplishment when they begins to play the instrument of their choice. I believe that a person should learn at their own pace. With that in mind I try to set realistic goals and make each lesson understandable. Acknowledging their success helps build their confidence and knowledge which translates into the student wanting to practice more. Read More
Instruments: Piano
Listening to different styles helps students develop their own music senses and apply these into their playing styles. This starts with a strong grasp of music theory to appreciate the structure in each music piece, which then lays a foundation for students to write their own songs and express their passion. PRACTICE makes perfect, but practice with strategies makes practice effective . My teaching approach is through constructive feedback during lessons and motivate students to practice, focusing on challenging areas. Read More

Instruments: Piano
One of my greatest joys in life is observing a joy in piano! Therefore I strive to administer the elements of music to the student's learning style, how they would use piano for their own enjoyment and for their families enjoyment. Each student is different with different goals, desires, learning styles, and objectives. Teaching according to the individual's learning style, expectations, desires, and goals is critical in piano development. The teacher must discard the concern for only the superior students in his studio because some students have learning impairments and put the individual first. Read More

Music Education is crucial to the development of todays student for tomorrows world. According to Plato, Music gives a soul to the universe, wings to the mind, flight to the imagination, and life to everything. The benefits and impact that Music Education has on the lives of children and adults alike are paramount. Unlike any other academic subject, music engages the mind, body, and spirit. Through Music Education, students develop an aesthetic temperament that goes well beyond that of their non-musical counterparts. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
i encourage students to practice everyday if possible. Even if a student practices for 15 minutes daily they will notice progress in a few weeks. I constantly remind students to start using a timing source such as metronome and tap their foot to the beat. When music is executed effectively then its time to gradually increase speed.
Vocal students are encouraged to learn the scale and to practice breathing exercises daily if possible.
Rather than pushing for higher notes students should find their natural range and work on strengthening that part of their range. Developing healthy singing habits including diaphragmatic breathing is essential in vocal training.
When will I start to see results?
This depends on the individual. Some people progress faster than others. In my experience I have noticed that the average adult or adolescent student will notice progress in 4 weeks to 1 month. However this is under ideal circumstances if a person practices everyday (or almost everyday). Usually students measure progress by their ability to play their preferred music. Young school age children may develop skills faster with regular practice.
With Vocal students results may be noticed within two or three sessions. Of coarse this depends on many different variables. We are born with our ability to sing. However very few are born with perfect pitch. When a singer learns to breathe with the diaphragm they will notice an improvement right away. However we need to develop these healthy singing habits with regular practice. Our body is the musical instrument when singing which is why we need to "train" our brain and body.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
When a pre school age child (4 or 5 years) expresses a strong interest in playing an instrument this is a sign. Young children care nothing about self discipline so its up to the parents to encourage regular practicing. Every child has unique interest abilities. Although we all see preschool age children on you tube who seem to have mastered an instrument this is extremely rare. We need to impress on young children that playing an instrument is not instant but takes regular practice. Learning a musical instrument at a young age develops the synaptic connections in the brain. This development as well as learning self discipline can help your child in whatever discipline they pursue in the future even if they don't turn out to be a musical prodigy. Musical education can begin from day 1 by exposing children to music.
