Instruments: Piano
As an accomplished music instructor and piano teacher with more than 8 years of experience instructing students in instrumentation and general music theory, I am confident in my ability to significantly contribute to the success of your schools objectives. I love teaching and have an outgoing-fun personality they seem to respond to positively. I am organized with a good sense of time management able to handle the multiple tasks of a teacher including grading classroom management and lesson planning. Read More
Instruments: Piano Keyboard
For beginning students who are children, I typically start with Music for Little Mozart, Alfred Premier Piano Course, or Faber Piano Adventures. Once the student has progressed to have grasp of the fundamentals, I will begin to introduce solo repertoire appropriate for them. For adults, I try to find out what they are interested in, and guide my instruction accordingly to keep the lessons engaging and fun. I especially encourage my students to practice four to five hours per day, because it helps the students to develop techniques and strength for fingers. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Synthesizer Keyboard
Being a person and friend rather than a "teacher" helps establish a nice atmosphere during the lesson, although it is important to be able to show authority as needed. First and foremost the student needs to have fun at class, otherwise he/she won't work on his/her own at home. I believe it is important to play a lot in the lesson, playing along with the student, listening to tunes, or just jamming together, all of these examples help spark creativity, which is a very important part of every musician.

I am very flexible with the students I work with. Depending on how you learn best, I will adapt to your needs. I can teach through the use of books (such as the Suzuki Method, John Thompson, etc) but I am also an advocate for learning by ear, transcribing and chord charts. I am also a great transcriber and arranger. With that, I am able to adjust any song to any difficulty for the students I work with. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Keyboard
I encourage my students to find and explain to me the techniques that are working for them once I have given any instruction. I want you to have a deep seeded understanding of the teachings which I am employing upon you. I will begin with basic music fundamentals for all my students and establish a scope of your knowledge and then move forward accordingly. For my piano students I will start with a beginning piano book and we will move forward as you progress. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
What you put into anything is what you get out of it; its the same with vocals. I customize lessons to help you get to your voice and/or stay with your voice. However, you have to know the basics and if those aren't there, that will be the initial focus. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I'm very passionate about being honest and straightforward with my students. I'm very prone to telling my students not just what I do but why I do it, as I believe it's important to develop holistic thinking. I also think it's important to get students curious about as much related to the art form as possible. So, I include extra information about history, theory, other aspects of the canon, etc. Read More

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
Something related with Animals or plants
I could be a cook.
I could be an Actor
I could be a writer
A Film Director.
Philosopher.
Scientist.
I would love to be a painter or work with art. It has to be related with creativity and freedom. There is a lot of occupations that I would love to do. I would study chemistry and physics. Also if I wasn't a musician I would love to be a dancer and go in life enjoying different types of music and movements. Another thing that I encounter very fun is sports as Racquet Tennis, Baseball, Swimming and running.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
All of the in their own styles. My favorites I can say
Classical
I like Classical because of all the richness of styles and composers. I think all the posibilities of amazing music coming from composers that really worked hard in their styles and ideas.
Latin styles coming from Cuba, Venezuela, Puerto Rico, Mexico, Spain, Argentina and brasil. I like this music because has great rhythms and soul. Music to dance is generally happy and simple music.
I like Modern music as Rock, Funk, Jazz, Regueae because it brings the new sounds from synthesizers and electric guitars that make the music special
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
I started with Guitar and then Voice. My 3rd instrument was the keyboard. I started cause I had a very good friend that was a good Piano player. When I saw him play I always ask him things about the keyboard. He recommended me some piano methods that I bought. I started practicing keyboard but it was a hooby for me. I always focused more in the guitar and the Voice. Also I started to play other string instruments as the electric Guitar, the Cavaquinho, the puerto rican cuatro, Requinto Guitar, Bass guitar. Then I was a good piano player. For what I decided to keep following my heart and bought an student trumpet an alto SAx, a Soprano Sax. I bought a flute because I really liked and in a spiritual session they asked us to meditate breathing as we were playing a flute. Also musician friends inspired me for the drum set and percussion.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Not that much but it did. My dad wasn't a professional musician but he was a very good singer and play good guitar. Also he could be in some groups were they gather for fun or because he was playing for a band of the school. Also the sister of my that she is not a musician but she recognizes and like to hear good music. I was a child and usually child's can't appreciate sometimes classical music. Is a little to serous and complicated for their taste. You need a guide that start sharing you jewels in the classical music and you find amazing music.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I always knew I wanted to be a musician. My family in general are more in to business. I didn't have no body from my family to guide me in to what is it to work fully as a musician. Anyway I always wanted to give my life to the music. My parents told me they support me in Music after I finish another career that is more in to the business. I studied marketing before I did my music careers. It wasn't gradual decision. I always knew and I never would regret of doing it. Music has way more magic than people from outside can see.
