Instruments: Piano Oboe
What I feel the most rewarding of teaching is to see my students grow musically and develop a passion for music. "Consistent" and "productive" practice are the key points I emphasize for all the students. I personally believe that being able to "see the result" can help students gain confidence about their potential so students will be eager to challenge more in order to accomplish a higher level. In order to promote effectiveness, it is essentially important that students understand what to improve and what the best method is for practice. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I like to use supplementary materials if a method book isn't covering musical territory that the student wants to explore. Although I insist a student learn to read music, I encourage learning by ear and have helped students find a melody on the piano by ear rather than reading notes. Patience is my watchword but I will always encourage and document practice times. I tell the student, you can't achieve your music goals without practice, preferably every day. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Flute Drums Ukulele Recorder Piccolo Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Conga Latin Percussion Music Keyboard Acoustic Guitar
The key ingredient to learning is interest. I believe that my students need to have an interest in what they are playing so that they can keep their minds and spirits engaged. Rudiments require attention and practice, but there is much more to learning an instrument than just technique; passion also needs nurturing. If a student is really in to Star Wars, for example, I will gladly incorporate the 'Imperial March' into their rudimentary studies. Read More
Instruments: Voice Music
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Being creative under time management is one thing artist sometimes struggle on. Depending on the skill development of the artist, timelines vary upon completion of projects. Times may vary from two days to two weeks, again also may depend on the artist and they type of project being worked on.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I have many accomplishments that I have achieved, but the ones that stick out the most are performing at the Miss Black Ohio Pageant, also being nominated and performing at the 2018 Poze Productions XMAs. Next to those accomplishments if would be winning 2019 Recording Label Of The Year for GlobalFamily Productions
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
Greedy Reem was the first breakout artist from Juan Rhymez & One Mic Empowerment. He has competed in competitions where he was placed #1 and labeled 2019 Artist Of The Year. Recklezz Zay, as known as GoGetEm soon followed after with alliances from Brothers By Loyalty and LILBRONEM Ent. Current rising artist from the label are now JIM BEAN, SPAZZOUT, DELL2SOLID, Jondoe Montanaa, RYNWillsavage and many more.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
My primary instruments are my own voice, microphone, and logic pro X software. Beside the usual pen/pencil and a pad to jot down my lyrics, or I may used a app on my phone to capture my thoughts if none are of available.
When will I start to see results?
With continued practice and effort, results could almost be instant, but advancement and quality very much depends on the progression of the artist and what they are looking to achieve.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My music industry peers happen to be prior hip hop legends that I still to this very listen to. I grew up listening to 2Pac, Notorious B.I.G, Ludacris, Scarface, Master P, and Jay-Z. Each of these artist have done well for themselves and help bring along and produce other outstanding talent. From their success and failures I have grasp the concept of being a musical producer while maintaining an artist career of my own. As well as I record their music, I also educate them on Business Management of their careers. Most artist just want to rap, and let someone else do the footwork, I show have to be a independent artist and be your own manager.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
A desired passion is something that sometimes goes unnoticed until it hits you in the face. Most times a "star" is born at first glimpse, while others make take a little bit more time to develop.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
My motto is "Practice makes for Perfection when Perfection is Practiced." Consistency is key and effort is everything; practicing is, and should be a everyday routine. Without it, there can be no progress in progression.
