Instruments: Piano Trombone
My main objective as an educator is to share my enthusiasm for music and develop a lifelong love for music in my students. I do not have one specific style of teaching because I believe it to be my job to cater my teaching style to the learning style of my students. Every student has different objectives and interests. I do my best to help students learn what they are interested in while insuring they develop excellent fundamentals on their instrument and a strong knowledge of music theory. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Electric Guitar
I started teaching at the age of 18. I taught teenagers about music theory, and how to apply it with an instrument that each teenager would be interested in. I made it fun for every teenager. I liked teaching teenagers about the importance of music. I have been teaching the students for 2 years. Ever since then i always had a passion of teaching and would do at my best to accomplish the requirements I have established for each and everyone one of them. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I like to rely both on method books and insights I have gained over the years. I believe that a student's familiarity with all the major and minor scales is an important goal to arrive at as soon as it could be achieved. Just about as important is a steady rhythm. So, I stress this too. When my student reaches a satisfactory level, I invite him or her to participate in a recital. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Music
I teach all ages (4-75), all backgrounds, and all sorts of wants/needs. Some students just want to learn how to sing in choir more freely. Others are pursuing music degrees. Some want to learn how to play a song or two on the piano. Others want to take RCM exams. I love meeting students where they're at and helping them out along the way! I believe everyone can and should make music! Read More

My teaching experience began with a few friends of mine in college. It was just for the fun of it at first, until others outside my circle of friends began to approach me about lessons, through word of mouth. I was soon known in my class to be the guy to go to learn more about music. In fact not all of these friends came to me for just guitar lessons, a couple I have taught beginner piano to as well.

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!
