Instruments: Piano Clarinet Music
I have been teaching clarinet and piano since 2019. For each student, I focus on developing healthy practice habits (physically mentally) that allow them to be efficient and rewarded by their time spent with the instrument. I help students build a strong foundation of fundamentals so they are able to be successful working on more advanced literature. I'm always excited to help students at any level explore music as a means of learning about and expressing themselves, while gaining and improving upon this new skill. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
I use my own method books alongside other pedagogical resources such as the guitar methods left by Carulli, Carcassi, Sor, Brouwer, and many others. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Trumpet Acoustic Guitar
My teaching experience dates back to when I was 17 years old working at a music conservatory for kids from elementary to college students teaching guitar, piano and trumpet. I taught fundamental ear training, private lessons, musical theory, and brass band group lessons. Throughout my 20 plus years of teaching In these music conservatory’s I have developed a method of teaching for the student that is personally adapted for each student to make them better players professionally or for fun.

Instruments: Piano Keyboard
I began teaching in 2001 and have taught private lessons on and off since then. I am now starting a new studio and am looking for students who want to learn the joy of piano. I was classically trained and tend to start with this method. This along with the students' musical interests, provides a pathway to learning theory, sight reading, and composing in a fun way. I am looking for students of all ages. Read More
Instruments: Piano Trumpet Saxophone Drums Orchestral Percussion Latin Percussion Music Djembe
I'm trying to put each student in touch with their inner creative. Everyone learns at a different pace and my approach is to teach something to mastery level rather than fill a quota. Inspiration and the joy of playing is first and foremost with my approach. By breaking difficult passages down into digestable pieces and making attainable goals, I find this keeps the student interested and builds confidence to overcome weaknesses. Read More

My teaching experience started when I was in high school. Being a son of two teachers I was compelled to become a tutor. I was my first student. Teaching myself how to play the piano and gutiar. My father taught me methods of how to learn and thats what I use to teach. I gained more experience helping people write essays and do home work. Over the summer I worked with children in summer camps..working with children with autism . in college I became a tutor for the English department. Read More
Instruments: Trumpet
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
On trumpet, the hardest thing to master is blowing through a phrase. What I mean by this is keeping a steady air flow and not changing your air flow up and down due to the notes you are playing in what range. Flexibility studies and Stamp as well as Hood warmups in particular help with this. The next thing that is most difficult is playing quietly with a good tone. A great way to practice for this is by playing Clarke 1,2,3,4,5 at a very low volume. Pair this with flow studies, and mastering Small and Arbans etudes will certainly help sustain a steady air flow.
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
Of coarse! A trumpet player’s best friend are their method books. The most well-known trumpet method books include Arbans and Clarke studies. These are great for fingering exercises, etudes, and a really great way to work up towards the trumpet player you want to be. Irons is great for flexibility, Small for etudes, Caruso for kinestetics, Schlossberg for etudes which are wonderful for beginners; and you can’t go wrong with Chicowitz for long tones - which of coarse improve your tone. These books belong in every trumpet players’ collection.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
I begin with breathing exercises and move to mouthpiece buzzing. I use the Boyd Hood mouthpiece drills corresponding on piano then with my mouthpiece; resting the same amount as playing. I move onto Chicowitz long tones and then Stamp warmups. I make sure to not overplay and rest just as much as I play. I move onto technical studies - including Irons flexibilities, Clarke technical studies and etudes, and etudes from either Schlossberg, small, or Arbans - depending on what I’m working on that week. After than I normally take about a 30 minute break then I work on my literature. Last, I warm down by playing low long tones included in the Stamp warmups.
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 Bacholer of Arts in Music - concentration trumpet. I chose this degree to teach private lessons as well as perform gigs and I will eventually obtain my masters degree in either Musicology, Theory, Performance, or Composition. I like to keep my options open so that is why I have chosen some wiggle room for what I’m going to graduate school for. For now in this transition between undergrad and grad school, I want to teach lessons full time and continue practicing and playing gigs. I plan on attending UNT or UTA for graduate school.
