Instruments: Piano Violin
I teach using the philosophy of being positive. I will always have only positive things to say to a student. If, for example, a.student is playing out of tune, I wont lie and say how great he/she sounds but might say her position is so good and if her finger was a little higher on the string someone would think she was a professional. I give awards to students who achieve certain goals. Read More
Instruments: Violin Viola
My teaching experience dates back to my grad school years, as I began teaching private lessons part time in 1995. Since then, I have been teaching more and more students both privately and in school setting. I have taught in Park School, The Friends School in Baltimore area, and Towson University preparatory music department, and currently I'm a faculty in McDonogh School Private Music department. I also run studio recitals yearly and help my students rehearsing with the pianists to make their music complete and bring them up to their fullest performance level. Read More

I am a passionate and motivated musician, artist, and educator. I believe God blessed me with the gifts I have in order to be a musical blessing to others and teach instrumental music. I have been a performer since middle school and have carried it into my professional career. I graduated from Coppin State University with a Bachelor of Science in Urban Arts and a minor in music. The Urban arts degree combines vaious art form with the individual focusing on his/her particular art form. Read More
Instruments: Violin Viola
Guiding students towards a profound love for the violin and viola is at the core of my teaching philosophy. I firmly believe that instilling a sense of discipline and regularity in practice lays the foundation for success, especially for younger students. My approach harmoniously blends classical and contemporary music to engage and motivate learners. After all, if students aren't reveling in their lessons, my mission remains incomplete. In addition to honing their instrumental skills, I encourage my students to participate in competitions and recitals, fostering a sense of accomplishment and motivation. Read More
Instruments: Violin Viola
My teaching experience dates back to my college days in Toronto, where I started teaching privately. I started teaching part-time about 5 years ago, and have been consistently teaching since. I am fortunate that I get to work with a lot of young kids, and get to introduce them to the world of music and help them develop their passion early on. Teaching is a great source of energy for me.

I'm an ardent and compassionate instructor who enjoys sharing the gift of music with children and adults. Music enriches the communities in which we live and expands our capacity to connect with humanity. I studied privately with Philip J. Teibel of the Buffalo Philharmonic from childhood through High School. I toured the Southeast US with the Oberlin College Choir and Orchestra in college. Since graduation, I've had the opportunity to perform with numerous ensembles including: Soulful Symphony and the Baltimore Symphony at Meyerhoff Symphony Hall and Strathmore Music Center in North Bethesda.

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
The many teachers that I have had in high school were the main reasons why I decided to go in to music. My high school orchestra teacher is a professional bass player and he continues to inspire me as I grow older. I was also a member of various youth orchestras, all of which had very inspirational teachers. I hope to inspire my students to go in to music or at least continue their music while they pursue other things.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I chose my primary instruments, the viola, because of my father. He told me that as a baby, I would bob up and down whenever the violas had a solo in any classical music piece that we would listen to together, so he knew that the instrument was meant for me. Additionally, the viola is an instrument that gets enough time in the spotlight, but it primarily serves as the supporting role in an ensemble. I feel that the viola is perfect for me because my personality is extroverted enough to enjoy being in attention part of the time, but I excel the most when I support my colleagues and friends.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I have been a member of the Civic Orchestra of Chicago, which is the premier training orchestra in the Midwest. It is associated with the Chicago Symphony Orchestra, so we got to perform at Symphony Center and our coaches were members of the Chicago Symphony. Additionally, I was also a member of the Baltic Sea Philharmonic, which is comprised of members who were selected from a pool of musicians that are from one of the 10 countries that border that Baltic Sea.
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 both a Bachelors degree in Music and a Masters degree in Music Performance. I chose these degrees because I have always felt that I shined the most in music and that I couldn't picture myself in a job that didn't require me to perform, teach, or discuss music on a daily basis. I pride myself in receiving my masters degree from Northwestern University because that is where I believe that I was pushed to my limits as a musician. I have learned to perform and teach at very high level because of the degrees I have attained.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practice passages that are tricky slowly at first and then slowly pick up the tempo (preferably using your metronome!). Taking the time to play slowly first helps wonders and helps technique.
