I taught the students from beginners to very advanced college students in traditional classic way. I taught big string classes and private lessons in different levels. I was assistant professor in University of Mississippi for ten years and taught applied cello and string Bass lessons. Many of my students went to further professional studies and started their music career. And also, I have many students who went to other majors in college but still keeping very active in the area of music, playing community orchestra, start their own private chamber music group, become very positive part of their community.

My teaching method is mainly the combination of The Juilliard School of Music and Suzuki Method. Lessons are specifically designed to fit individual students age, background, strength and personality. In my classes, not only students are taught how to play the violin, they are also taught ear training, sight-reading, music theory, and performance skills; Most importantly, students are also taught self-confidence, discipline, appreciation of the arts, and the pride that comes from a job well done.

My methods are the ones that works more for the student. For some reason some methods work better with certain people. One method can be tedious for a student and easy and fun for another. Hal Leonard's can be a good tool. I can use to many different books. Also I can write down specific exercises special for the student. Some times a student can learn faster without a book. Read More

When will I start to see results?
Every student learns at a different pace, and violin is a particularly difficult instrument to begin. You should see results after the very first lesson because your child will learn to hold the instrument, learn the string names, and the different parts of the violin. Ideally there will be progress after every single lesson, but in order to instill the teacher's points, students must be practicing throughout the week.
Even 15 minutes a day of reviewing your previous lesson is better than no practice at all.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Set goals for each practice session. If you know what you want to accomplish during your practice time, you are much more likely to be efficient.
Don't attempt to play through pieces without first working on the smaller details. You should think about different points each time you practice a passage. First think about your intonation and left hand, then move your focus to your bowing and right hand, then make decisions on dynamics and musicality. If you break down the small details, you will be able to put the bigger picture together more efficiently.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing for beginners to master on the violin is the coordination it takes to make a sound with your bow in your right hand while using your left hand to place different notes on the fingerboard. Holding the violin feels unnatural to a lot of people at first which causes bad habits to form. As an instructor I make sure to curb those bad habits to make playing the violin feel as natural as possible. Once students understand the relationship of their right and left arms in regards to making a sound on the violin, the skill becomes easier and easier.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Ideally my students are proficient in their alphabet and have an attention span of at least 15 minutes.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My second violin teacher inspired me greatly to go into music. She was a professional working violinist (like I am now), and I always thought it was so exciting that I got to learn from a real violinist. My teacher was in different bands, played in churches, and performed at all different types of events. Because I saw how much she was working and how interesting her life was, I was able to see what a successful music career looked like. She also inspired me to think about teaching other people. When you are so focused on your music career, sometimes you overlook the opportunities you have to spread your knowledge to others. Because she was such an amazing musician and teacher, I was able to follow in her footsteps of being an instructor and working violinist.
