I am an enthusiastic instructor who likes to share the joy and dedication that is required to play music with students of differents ages and levels. I am a native from Cuba but have been living in San Francisco Bay Area for more than 10 years, which has given me the opportunity to participate in artistic events from diverse cultures.

I have been teaching regularly since I have graduated from Sacramento State University and although I'am currently studying in New England Conservatory, I can fit some students in my schedule. In some cases, I would give tips and advises to friends and help improve their skills while honing my ear training. That being said, after years of training, I am confident in my ability to not only to bring your strengths to your fullest potential, but to also take attention to your weaknesses as well! Read More
