I have a laisse-faire style of teaching. I am very relaxed and like my students to be relaxed. I depends on how the lesson flows. If we are making ground and they are picking up a lot I will give them more and more tools to work with to keep them inspired and moving! I love seeing people get excited.

I began my teaching career as a college student in 2015 and have continued to teach both in private and group settings for a total of 8 years. My primary instrument is voice, and I am passionate about guiding growing singers in finding their voice, developing healthy vocal technique, learning helpful music theory, and fostering a love of music! I also teach piano up to an intermediate level and enjoy helping players advance their agility, understanding of theory, and musical expression. Read More

My students can expect a teacher who is patient, understanding, and demands the very best from them, according to their abilities. Teaching has always been my passion and I believe that children gain so much more than just an elegant skill. Students of all ages gain confidence, self-esteem, and a good work ethic. Music is linked to better math grades, improved memory, and general. I love that my job is helping students achieve their goals. Read More

As mentioned above, each student is motivated by something different and has different musical goals. I try to find ways to make lessons fun and interesting for each and every student. As such, my approach for a less serious student will be different from my approach for a more serious student. However, I make sure that all students have a goal that they are working towards; Perhaps, a piece that they hope to perform at contest or a concert, or mastering their scales and arpeggios in every key.

If you are interested in taking piano/keyboard, guitar or voice lessons...I would really like to be your music instructor! I will travel to your home, hoping to make it more convenient for those students that would like their lesson after school hours. You are also welcomed to my home music studio each week for your lesson, conveniently located in Anaheim. To tell you a little about myself, I was raised in a musical family introduced to music at a very young age. Read More

Instruments: Voice Drums
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The voice is the most challenging musical instrument because of the many musicianship skills it take to master it. While instrumentalists enjoy the luxury of being able to articulate music using external triggers such as sticks, bows, slides, valves, and keys, improving vocal technique still requires dexterity and the development muscle memory to achieve successful navigation. All musical instruments have different intrinsic challenges derived from their various mechanical designs, however, the voice is activated internally by sending a controlled airstream to the larynx. The experience of singing is entirely physical and in addition to the moving parts of the larynx, vocal training involves learning how to manipulate the rib cage, diaphragm, throat, soft palate and lower jaw to best support the connection of breath and sound to the voice. Additionally, since the head and throat serve as resonance chambers, singers must learn how to physically develop tone quality, timbre and vocal colors using these devices. Essentially, a singer’s musical instrument is their body and each is naturally equipped with its own personal attributes.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
For my voice students I like to begin with Anne Peckham's The Contemporary Singer because it provides the perfect warm up regimen for all musical idioms, including pop, R&B, jazz and classical styles. Anne's book provides perfect exercises for essential breath management skills, which affect intonation and phrasing. Students studying scat singing with me will learn mostly by rote but more advanced singers will use "Scat! Vocal Improvisation Techniques" and "Blues Scatitudes." In addition, I like to use the Vocal Real Book for jazz standard repertoire and will support any song the student would like to sing including pop, rock, Latin and Broadway show tunes. FInally, if the student needs to work on rhythms and/or rhythmic feel, I use my book "Rhythmania," which is call-response rote-learning format.
Beginning drummers will enjoy a 3-step rote-learning process I call "Hear it, Sing it, Play it." Simultaneously I teach the traditional rudiments using a classic book called "Stick Control" written by George Stone. Intermediate to advanced drummers interested in playing jazz music use Ted Reed's "Syncopation for the Modern Drummer, "Advanced Techniques," by Jim Chapin, "Reading in 4/4," by Louis Belleson and David Weigart's "Jazz Workshop for Bass and Drums. Pop/rock/R&B drummers will enjoy Bill Elder's A Drummer's Guide to Contemporary Grooves," Paul Cappozzoli's "Around the Drums," and "Essential Stryles for Drums and Bass by Steve Houghton & Tom Warrington. I choose all my teaching approaches and books based on the student's interest, musical goals and proficiency level.
