Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Clarinet Mallet Percussion

Gaining a full understanding of the student and their needs is the most effective way for me to cater my instruction. (I should note that I have experience teaching recorder and piano to a student with autism as well). At the end of each lesson, I like to de-brief with the parents about the student's progress that day and to discuss their assignment for the week. I also like to be a resource for my student in and outside of the lesson, so parents and/or students are always allowed to contact me about questions or concerns during the week.  Read More

Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone French Horn Keyboard

As a teacher, I like to focus on each students needs as becoming a well rounded musician.  I like to work from a few method books including Arbans, Rubank, and Schlossberg for building up your embouchere as a trumpet player.  We will focus in on technique, embouchere building, jazz improvisation, and music theory. I always encourage my students that if there is a piece of music they would like to learn, bring it to the lesson and we will work on it. Read More

As soon as I was able to, which was about 15 years old at summer camp, I naturally wanted to spread the goodness of learning and playing music, and took to not only performing, but teaching anyone who asked me to. It was fun for me to do so, and I enjoyed being able to help people incorporate this into their lives. Plus, it gave me more people to play music with! Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice

I truly love teaching; there are few pleasures greater than seeing students progress. I encourage them to discover how beautiful and fun music is, and help them to find and develop their own areas of interest and talent. Born in Japan of a mother who started me on classical voice and piano in my early childhood, I went on to play flute and the Japanese koto and shamisen, and to compose and sing my own songs. Read More
