My favorite part of teaching is seeing students enjoy learning and exploring music. Each student will go at different paces however I place the same goals on every student: always improving and always committed to excellence. Even if the improvements are small, I always say, several small wins equal big wins. For each lesson I give specific goals related to whatever is currently being worked on, tailoring the instruction for the student to understand and scaffolded for them to succeed. Read More

Teaching, for me, began when I was in high school; I taught summer drumset lessons at McQuaid Jesuit and taught Karate at Martial Arts America. This desire to teach was incorporated with my love of music...leading me to pursue a degree in Music Education. I began performing and competing in fourth grade, which continued into my college years. In my third year of undergraduate work, these elements of music led me as well as three of my percussion buddies to performances and clinics (that we taught) at the New York State School Music Association and the New York State Band Director's Association conventions.

I have gained a passion for teaching from the people that taught and inspired me. I have worked with high school students and middle school students and find it rewarding to see them grow and progress into better musicians. I have enjoyed finding ways to keep my students motivated and wanting to come back and pursue their talent that they can spread with the world. I want each student to be able to study what it is that they find interesting and fun, so I will try to include music from musicians that my students take interest in. Read More

My teaching experience is based on what I learned in the French trumpet school and I have been teaching for more than 10 years with different methods according to the student and level he is at. What leaves me and being able to help and encourage students to play and participate in musical groups or even some audition for some I believe a lot in the student's patience, motivation and discipline to obtain a good result of a work plan to be followed.
