Instruments: Piano Flute Recorder Music Keyboard
Learning music entails much more than just playing a song. I am sure to incorporate theory, ear training, history, technique, and performance skills into the learning process. The goal is to teach the student to be a well-rounded musician and develop all of the skills needed to understand and fully enjoy the entire musical experience. In order to keep lessons fun, I will incorporate small rewards and am always welcoming of jokes and humor as long as our learning stays on track. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Music
I began my teaching career in 2014. I was involved in a program where I worked under established teachers and observed them teach. I then took over their classes and received feedback and guidance from them. Since moving to Chicago in 2017, I have worked with a music school and taught private lessons as well as group lessons in Chicago Public Schools. I am trained in the Suzuki method and heavily rely on that in my teaching. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practice makes permanent. Be realistic with yourself about your level and quality of practice - if you are only going to practice a little, learn to practice very efficiently. If you practice a lot, make sure you aren't over doing it. I used to practice excessively (5+ hours a day) and wasn't improving at all. I know practice no more than 2-3 very efficient 20-40 minute sessions a day and play better than ever without getting tired. 15 minutes of good focused warm-ups are better than 3 hours of sloppy spot-practicing.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Are they physically capable of playing the instrument? If so, then yes! Studies have shown that the earlier any kind of education enteres s child's life, the more effective and permanent their relationship with it will be. Exposing children to musical training early on gives them an exponentially higher chance of success later on.
When will I start to see results?
Everyone is different. Always be sure to check in with your lesson teacher - nobody can give you an answer ot this question without context.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I have an initial practice session of 15-30 minutes in which I only warm-up and focus on basics. LAter during the day I'll move from warm-ups into increasingly focused practice lasting about 15-20 minutes. I will repeat any focus practice I feel I need no more than 3 times during a day. I end my day with a 5-10 minute fun jam and warm-down exercise.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
My degree, while focusing on performance, is actually in many aspects of music: I studied theory, musicology, composition, etc. from all over the world. Despite being a highly trained musician, I wanted to hone my ears and expand my musical perspective instead of just drilling music I was already familiar with. This has made me not only a more musical and informed player, but also a more enthusiastic musician - there's a mind-boggling diversity of amazing music out there!
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
Not sure if I have a favorite, but I really enjoy the flexibility funk, soul, jazz and electronic music allows.
Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
I have an uncle who plays 32 instruments without being abel to read music. Beisdes that, nope! I come from a totally unmusical family!
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
I came to music early inn life, but only decide on the professional musician track in late high school. I saw some paths to make a really positive difference in people's lives with music and just knew I had to jump in!
