My teaching style is student-driven. I want to know what you are setting out to accomplish with your instrument of choice so I can help you to achieve your goals.

I can't wait to hear about what excites YOU most about music so I can help you to become the kind of musician you want to be.  I do expect students to practice between lessons. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice Keyboard

I have been teaching private piano and voice lessons for over 20 years, and I still love it! I love teaching all ages, beginner thru advanced. As an undergraduate, I was tapped to teach for my university's preparatory music department. After graduation, I started teaching privately, and I've never looked back. In addition to teaching privately, I have also taught music and movement classes, and that experience has helped me learn how to effectively incorporate movement in order to help students learn (especially busy little ones who don't need to be sitting for an entire half hour lesson anyway).

My passion for music comes from childhood, learning the first chords on the guitar with my father. From then on, I began to study classical guitar in conjunction with a repertoire of Brazilian and Latin music. Later I deepened my studies on the 7-string nylon guitar and also on the semi-acoustic guitar, especially in the language of jazz and blues. I completed a bachelor's degree in popular guitar at the most prestigious institution in the city of So Paulo, FASM. Read More

Instruments: Voice

I am very proud to say that my students are not "cookie cutter" versions of my own singing, but rather each student is unique and individual in their sound. It is also very important to me that students immediately bring acting and performing into their singing, so I start this even with the very first song we work on. Performing/acting helps the vocal technique fall into place more easily, and always provides a more interesting result. Read More
