Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet Drums Piccolo
I started teaching private flute lessons to beginners in the Twin Cities area10 years agowhen I was in High School. I relocated to Duluth for college and continued my private teaching as I earned my degree in Music Education. Over the course of my education, I expanded my specialties to include all band instruments in the private lessons that I offer.After graduating with my degree, I taught at Solon Springs School in Northern Wisconsin for two years where I taught three band classes, two general music classes and many other music activities Read More
Instruments: Piano Clarinet
My main method is to be in the middle between having a discipline, encouraging to practice regularly, stay focused but at the same time to remain curious about the process and not let the students develop the habit where they need to practice because they need to. With some older students I try to be somewhat specific and explain what are the things we are working on, why we are working on this, and how to archive it. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Drums Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion Conga Latin Percussion Music Keyboard Electric Guitar Djembe
My teaching style is very focused on the student's desire to learn what they want. Very early into taking on a new student, I try to find what/who inspires them. Doing so allows me to tailor my teaching to each individual student. I also like to have 3 main "small improvement" objectives for each lesson. There's improvement on what we did during our last lesson, improvement during the lesson with something new I will introduce, and improvement for our next lesson with something I will give to the students to work on themselves after our lesson.

Instruments: Piano
It is important that each student progress at his or her own pace. Encouragement is given by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps engage a students desire to progress and make students eager to learn more. By exploring what inspires the student, I can tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. An example is using the Faber and Faber book PlayTime Piano Rock'n'Roll and learningRock Around the Clock or Rockin'Robin and PlayTime Piano Classics such as Lullaby by Brahms or Country Dance by Beethoven.

Instruments: Piano Violin Viola Fiddle Keyboard
My experiences teaching are fundamentally positive in nature. I know each student is different and unique in his or her way. I also teach lessons in German and/or English as needed. Setting a goal at the first lesson is important to me. I provide recitals twice a year for both strings and piano. For piano I offer a grand piano sent back from Vienna, refurbished and beautiful in tone. Read More

I use generally use Faber and Faber for piano and the Yamaha method for guitar. However, each student learns differently therefore I like to meet and assess the needs before choosing a course to follow. For band students, I use the school's chosen method of instruction supplementing with theory, technique and performance pieces. For piano students, I get to know each student's taste in music and choose accordingly. I encourage my voice students to learn a varied repertoire of classical, folk songs, Broadway and pop if they desire. Read More

Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Drums
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
When we sing, there are many muscles are working together. However, the problem is that the muscles are not shown by our eyes because those are in our bodies. Furthermore, the muscles are totally different depending on people. So, knowing their own instrument (body and voice) is the hardest thing. Second, the voice is in our body. So, the voice can be changed according to their condition. To maintain steady voice, I think singers need to practice a lots. I think repeated practice is only way to remember their voice perfectly.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
When I had a private lesson at Texas, my student awarded second place for a vocal competition. When I started to teach him he has a bad habit for signing while he has a great voice. So, I tried to fix his bad habit. His bad habit was stuffy sound which causes artificial voice. For this reason, he tended to push his voice a lot. To fix this problem, I made an effort to let him know his natural voice. Of course, he felt it was really weird and stranger. After fixing this bad habit, he was able to improve his voice quickly. When he found his voice and sing with natural voice he won the competition.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Ironically, my goal was being a math teacher because I was really good at math and science. However, my goal was changed when I was high school student. My parents are strong christians. So, I naturally went to church with my parents. In the church, I liked to play a guitar and a drum. I was able to sing in church choir many times. Through the experience, I recognized that I like to sing a lots and my voice is different from others. Also, the choir conductor encouraged me to study voice many times. With his courage, I could decide to study voice.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Music field is really competitive. I have worked at Opera North last summer for two months. When I got young artist program at Opera North, I was really honored because it was really competitive to get it. There were over 600 applicants who applied that program. However, only 16 singers could join the program. Through the program, I could improve my musicality and had good opportunity to sing on the stage. Second, I often sing at church offering or special service. After singing, when people told me your singing made me touched and comfort I feel really happy and proud of me.
