Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Bass Guitar Organ Synthesizer Ukulele Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
I like to teach and talk about the songs and styles that were taught to me by my father when I was just getting in to music and guitar. The first thing I remember learning were "Hey Joe" by Hendrix, which is actually simpler than most people would expect. The basic standards of guitar were taught to me when I was first learning, and that's what excites me to teach to the next generation of guitarists. Read More

He made it an enjoyable and fun experience for me and I desire to do the same for any student I get the privilege to teach. I love exploring the untapped potential in my students, celebrating with them when they understand a new concept or learn a new skill on their instrument. One of my favorite things is watching my students grow as musicians over the time I get to teach them. Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Flute Keyboard
For piano students I highly recommend the Alfreds books for beginners. After you have some background we can work with the music of your choice, classical, jazz, pop, RnB etc. Some of my specialties include teaching people how to turn chord charts into music, how to improvise and how to use music theory to improve your understanding of music. For guitar I do not use any books as I find most guitar method books to be very old fashioned and not inviting to the student. Read More
Instruments: Piano Keyboard
I entered Berklee College of Music (Boston, Massachusettes) in 1996. I studied composition for motion picture and video games. I met many great musicians there and shifted from classical to contemporary music such as Jazz. The classical training helpeed me develp piano technique and finger strength anddexterity. The contemporary shift allowed me to apply my classical training into my degree work. After colleg I worked in Seattle, Los Angeles, Nashville, and now Memphis holding various positions in the music industry. Read More
Instruments: Piano
It was very clear these musicians benefitted from extra mentorship, private lessons and group practices things that the average public school music program cannot provide. Not everyone wants to be a doctor or lawyer. Some kids want to be professional musicians and make a living playing jazz, and I hope I can help them make their dreams become a reality. A big part of my job is to show students the steps they need to take to achieve their goals and use my personal experiences as an example. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I take full advantage of her knowledge and comprehensive ability to help each student to solve problems, to overcome difficulties. In the process of teaching, I master a set of feasible and effective teaching methods through many years experience. I find out different teaching strategies, to help students really learn the true meaning of piano performance. Another advantage is that I am good at teaching in English and Chinese, which also helps those students who have interests in learning Chinese. Read More
Instruments: Trombone
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
In elementary school we had music class once a week for an hour. We worked on a school program that we put on at the end of the year. One year we put on our program, but one child was front and center. None of us really knew him. He played the glockenspiel and xylophone. All of us kids onstage were amazed by him. At the end of the show most of the parents were clapping for him, including most of us kids onstage. The music teacher came onstage and gave him a big hug with pride. I asked the music teacher later how I could be like that kid. It was then that the music teacher told me that the boy took individual lessons from him.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
All weak points need to be addressed, as well as practicing in different environments. Beginning your day constantly with the same daily exercises can be good, but it also may leave you completely dependent on those exercises before you perform. Life isn't always so accommodating. Switching things up, daily or almost daily, will create a more solid embouchure and a greater ability to succeed in your performances. I have collected exercises over the years that will conquer boredom, which could lead to improper use of a daily exercise and hinder your performance in the long run.
When will I start to see results?
Children will see results immediately and will be excited about picking up the instrument the next day. The next day's results will make them understand that they can actually get better every single day. This is mandatory to keep a child's interest, and it's an absolute necessity for them to keep going in the long run. One of my trombone professors explained progress to me as not really walking up a ramp to get to a higher performance ability. It's more like walking up the rungs of a screw. You may slide down a rung every so often, but no matter what you're always on your way up.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Every child is ready to start lessons at any time, even if they've never even created a noise on the instrument. Having a professional show your child the ropes from the very beginning gives them a tremendous head start. Children can become immediately turned off at the beginning of learning an instrument if they see it as hard or too much effort. Some will even give up immediately. Making progress from the first time they pick up the instrument turns a light on inside of them that may never turn off.
