The methods that I choose to use with my students depends on what they want to learn. Some students want to just play classical music, some pop, some jazz, some marching band, etc. Therefore I do not use the same teaching methods for all students. With that being said, I do make certain that all of my srudents understand the basic elements of music, i.e., time and key signatures, note values, melody, rhythm, harmony, pitch, intonation (if a wind instrument), form, theme and variation, etc. Read More

I have been teaching for the last 14 years for other music schools as well as my home studio. I love to help new students from the ages of  4-99  in learning the joys of playing an instrument or instruments that they are going to enjoy. Nothing truly satifies me more than to see a student advance in their insturment as each lessons passes by. Daily quality and not quantity practice is something I like to encourage the student to be able to advance much faster in mastering the instrument.

Instruments: Voice

I will start of by getting to know the student; their needs, goals, interests, experience, etc. We can start of with discussing these things and music interested. I will assign music and students may choose music to work on as well. The first lesson will be an introduction and then we will build repertoire. As we are working on music we will discuss ways of learning, memorizing, technical musical terms, and more. Read More

Instruments: Piano Voice

While the technique is the same, the approach can be very different for each student. I first work on breath, then warm up the voice with exercices and then we sing and have fun. I accompany my students on the piano and encourage them to perform at recitals if they feel up for it. Working with children is different: For piano only, I use the Faber+Faber material, it's a fun and easy approach and works very well. Read More

I began teaching private music lessons in college in 2003. I have been teaching lessons consistently for the last 10 years from my home studio, online, as well as traveling to the students' home. I find great pleasure in hearing a student's progress, that's why I encourage recording their practice and having a consistent practice schedule. I feel it is important to give positive reinforcement and feedback to students. I am always excited to bring on new students of many different age groups! I believe it is important to keep the lesson interesting to the student by incorporating music for technique but also songs that the student enjoys playing.

I have been teaching since I started University, about 6 years ago, both as a private teacher and also as a teacher at private schools in LA. I have had students of all ages, from kids in school to adults, all levels. I personally believe that music and practicing should be fun. Motivation is key when learning an instrument, and by exposing the student to their preferred musical style will allow them to work even harder at their skills. Read More
