Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Bass Guitar Ukulele

My love and passion for teaching began when I was a teenager. As I mentioned, it was initially a way of earning extra spending money that led to a career. With so many years of teaching experience, I have developed a teaching method that is fun and proven to work. I have worked with students of all ages and ability levels, from children to adults, beginners to advance. I tailor the lessons to fit the students goals. Read More

Instruments: Piano

What I like to do in my studio is, set realistic goals for the student. I use "challenges" to help students achieve their goals. And reward them when they achieve them. I like using a lot of games as well to make piano learning fun. So I teach a lot of theory aspects using games with timers, and flash cards, dry erase dices and prizes when goals are meant. Some of my student favorites are the 30 piece challenge, Karate Scale challenge, speedy finger challenge and much more. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone

For all students I believe in technique.  For vocal students I start with working on how to have a free flowing sound and work on the natural sounds that can be created by each individual students.  Many people "create" their sounds, trying to mimic someone they have heard in the past.  I can help foster the best sound for you and apply it to repertoire that is appropriate and that you enjoy!!  As far as saxophone and piano, I begin at the beginning.

My teaching experience dates back to my college days, as I began teaching at a music summer camp 3 years ago. Since then, I have been teaching private students. I encourage regular practice sessions. This is one of the key points I like to emphasize for beginners especially, as it tends to help the student progress, gain a passion for the instrument, and build discipline. I've also found that a combination of classical and modern music can go a long way in helping students enjoy music, motivate them to practice and continue to learn. Read More

It is very reward to see the passion of a student committed to learn. The process of learning is unique to each student and so everyone learns at their own pace. As teacher I am aware of this and I adapt my lessons accordingly. I am a very patient person and understanding person. My priority is that each student understands the material. This means that communication is key. Back an forths and questions are always well come. Read More

Instruments: Piano Violin Cello Viola Double Bass Music

I use the Belwin Mills and String Builder books, also Klengel Technical Studies as well as Harvey S Whistler Position Books. Selected repertoire as the student advances. For beginning adults I try to determine exactly what they are wanting to achieve by starting an instrument at this point in life. For the beginner I determine what kind of talent they have and how to proceed with lessons. Learning an instrument is hard - and practice time at home is essential and must be consistent to progress.
