Instruments: Piano Guitar Bass Guitar Synthesizer Keyboard Electric Guitar
While I'm very new at teaching music, I have many years of experience in teaching in general. I've been pretty successful as a private math tutor since 2009, and more recently I've also been tutoring in ACT prep, SAT, prep, and C++. I'm very glad to be transitioning to music, since that is a topic I'm very passionate about. I love so many things about teaching, and I can't wait to see how they transfer to music lessons.

Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone Euphonium French Horn Tuba Music
I am a seasoned Certified Music teacher. I have degrees in French Horn Performance and Orchestrator Conducting. I strive to teach to the learning styles of my students. I focus on technique, musicality and music rudiments--rhythm, harmony, vocabulary. I have been teaching privately for over 4 decades. I have worked with youth bands and orchestras and directed musical theatre and opera. I can work with beginners and students at all levels. Read More
Instruments: Piano Oboe Bassoon
I'm very friendly and patient. Learning music should be enjoyable, and never a burden. My students learn at their own pace and have fun doing it. I'm happy to work with youngters, providing they have a basic grasp of letters and numbers. Older beginners are some of my favorites, those who may have always wanted to learn and never had time before. It's never too early or late to bring music into your life, as it helps with concentration, dexterity, and relaxation! Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
Being a teacher is by far one of the most rewarding choices that I have ever made. Seeing a students growth and development is absolutely astounding. I believe that each student is very individualized, and no student learns exactly the same as another. As a teacher, I believe that I need to constantly be adaptable and adjustable to each student's needs. I also want the student to enjoy the learning process; it is important that the student knows that he or she is making achievements and enjoys the rewards of his or her hard work. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Clarinet Music
Hello! I am a driven, passionate, and adaptable music educator. I just graduated with my bachelors in K-12 music education from Eastern Michigan University. I have studied the saxophone as my primary instrument for over 10 years now. I have taught a various range of ages and abilities for saxophone, clarinet, piano, and more! I believe that every child deserves a quality music education. Music is such a special experience that helps people grow in multiple areas. Read More
Instruments: Piano
At the age of three, I developed an interest in music, and spent a lot of time with my little keyboard plucking out songs I heard on tv. Luckily for me, my parents recognized my interest and enrolled me in lessons where I learned to read music before being able to read the words on the pages. I continued my lessons for 15 years with a focus in classical music, earning high marks in competitions. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Saxophone Drums Bass Guitar Recorder Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
Hello future students! I much enjoy sharing my experience as a creative musician to my students whether they are 5 or 55, beginner or advanced. I am a patient teacher and do my best to encourage each student to find themselves as unique learners (musicians) unto themselves. I graduated from Columbia College Chicago in 2002 with a BA focus on Music Composition. While recently living in NYC, I formed a 12-member saxophone orchestra, composed and recorded two symphonies, performed and recorded with the late Glenn Branca's 100 Guitar Ensemble, and provided live Sound Design for renowned poetess Anne Carson.

Instruments: Drums Synthesizer Music
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
Becoming a musician was not gradual. I didn’t think about it at all. I started playing when I was five. After that it became instinctual. One of the greatest experiences of my life playing music came when I was 16 years old the first time I played with my high school friends. I had a bunch of friends over in my parents basement . We couldn’t play play much yet, but we played our first nirvana cover song ( famouse 90’s alternative rock band ). It was a defining moment for me . I’ll never forget it . Playing music with other people is something experienced by so few .
What is your dream piece to perform and why?
I grew up with alternative rock bands from the 1990s. Back then, my dream would’ve been playing on stage with one of those amazing 1990s bands. For me there’s still nothing like performing live and affecting people and a positive, motivating way. Watching people dance , move or affected by a beat that you’re creating or playing is as rewarding as it gets.
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
lost. Just kidding. After 16 years of teaching seven days a week I actually left the industry and took a break. To me, teaching is one of the most rewarding things you can do. I’ve worked other jobs but nothing seems to compare. Other than teaching I think the job would have to be bigger than life for me to find it more rewarding.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I can say this definitively, I can find a great song in every genre of music. I do not have a favorite genre of music. I grew up on guitar driven music. When I started writing in Djing I knew I needed to understand other instruments. I started taking lessons and learning guitar, piano and music theory. I’m not great at any of them, but I love learning and continuing to play them. When I started DJing I discovered the world of electronica music. Being a drummer, most of electronic music used drum machines. It gave me an opportunity to look at drums differently and wondered how drum set was going to be used in the future Differently.
If you play more than one instrument, how did you decide to start playing the second? (Or 3rd, 4th, 5th, etc)!
When recording music became much more accessible, I wanted the ability to record my own music. To do so I need to learn how to play core instruments. I decided to play guitar piano and learn music theory. So I took lessons with fellow teachers. I knew that I did not have enough time to master the guitar or piano but it gave me an understanding of how they worked in recordings. Learning music theory on piano and guitar were one of the most practical ways to do so. It paid off because synthesizers are one of the most important tools you have when creating electronica music.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Music absolutely runs in my family! My father is an incredible singer. But the star of the family is actually my sister. She is an incredible singer. She was a finalist on Dick Clark’s 1980s show (before American Idol) , I grew up hearing her sing all the time ,but I had no idea how good she was until I finally heard her when I was 16 years old at a club, she blew my mind.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
There was a time where I practice 7 to 8 hours a day. There was also a time where I had no time to practice at all. It all comes down to goals. Our time is always limited. But one thing is important, you must know what you were going to play or practice before you sit down at an instrument. Otherwise you may waste precious time free playing .

If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I have a music performance degree from Dean College in Franklin Massachusetts. I chose that degree because at the time there is simply nothing I wanted to do better and be a musical performer.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
There was a time where for many years I practice 7 to 8 hours a day. There were also times where I had no time at all. It comes down to goals. Our time is always limited. It is crucial that you know what you were going to play or practice before you sit down at your instrument. Otherwise you may waste precious time “ free playing”. Free playing is often fun but not always very productive.
