ABOUT
Degrees / Training / Special Info:

Awards:

Overview:

I am a person who believes in teaching music to all ages. Through teaching I am hoping that I inspire students to follow their dreams on trying to achieve their goals in life. As a teacher I hope to gain the trust of my students by being the person that can help them progress forward in a chosen music career. I take pride in what I do. Hopefully I can encourage others to do the same.

EXPERIENCE

I began my teaching career as a private lesson teacher in 2000. Then I advanced into the private schools from  grades k-12 from 2001-2003. During this time I taught children that had special needs. They became one of my best students. I taught in public schools as well in 2008. I did private lessons for six years in between from 2003-09.

METHODS USED

As a teacher,I teach based on a students needs. Teaching methods are developed according to the weak areas in where a student needs to improve. Once i observed the problem a method is then developed. I can used methods from teaching books or create my own method. All methods are not the same for individual students. Observation is the key to a successful method.

LESSON STYLE

Well I try to be upbeat and friendly. I try to get to know my students and their problems with the instruments. Once I find the problem ,a plan is then created for the student. Also I might have students coming from different places or cultures. So my style of teaching comes from learning my student goals and needs.

Even though I want to play songs write away, Walter emphasizes the importance of creating piano scale drills with both hands, and it is working. Timing is everything!!!

Select all the days/times the student would be available to start lessons. Selecting "3pm - 7pm" means the student can start as early as 3pm or start as late as 7pm. It is important that you select as many days and the widest window of start times for each day as possible. That will help us make a match with one of our teachers.

Ok
