Instruments: Piano Voice
My teaching experience began during my undergraduate career, as I was hired by the Music Department at UC Berkeley to work with non-major music students to tutor and assist them through their music theory and musicianship courses. While receiving my masters, I began teaching private lessons part time 2 years ago, and have been consistently working with students since. I specialize with young beginning to advanced students, teaching vocal technique and introductory keyboard skills. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I develop an individual curriculum based on student's needs, ability and level of advancement. Since I do teach adults, I also schedule lessons to fit their life style. Depending of what the student wants, I do develop an individualized lessons. I do believe that beginners do need an introduction to basic music knowledge and methods. For children, I start with basics. For adults, I first try to determine their level of ability and interest and then customize music lessons based on my determination and student's wishes. Read More

Admittedly limited, my teaching experience started when I was in High School when I became the marching Band's trumpet section leader. I really enjoyed sharing my knowledge and experience with otherswatching people grow in their musicianship is an incredible reward for me and I'd love to experience it more in my life! In college, I once again assumed the role of student and absorbed everything that I could. Now that I am graduate, I am very ready to share that with those who would have it. Read More
Instruments: Piano Cello
In addtion to teaching privately in my studio, both 'cello and piano for over 30 years now, I have also taught after school string classes, for all student levels. One unique project that occured was playing for a ribbon cutting ceremony for an adult care center where I featured my students who performed with me and a few of my colleagues. Coaching youth orchestra 'cello sections sometime culminated in my New American Quartet coaching College students then performing a concert for them and their families. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice
I am an introvert and sometimes need to work on my art with a teacher one-on-one instead or in a classroom setting. This is the kind of space I provide for my students. I don't want them to feel intimidated, shy or under any pressure. I want them to feel as though they can have fun while simultaneous working on their craft. For beginning piano students who are children, I typically start with scales and Hal Leonard's My First Piano and for older students, Alfred's Basic Adult Piano Course. Read More

Instruments: Guitar Ukulele Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The most challenging things I have had to master have mostly been classical guitar related. Challenges have included playing the melody, inner voices and a baseline while utilizing both the right and left hand effectively, and trying to keep up with dynamics, memory of the piece and technique. Another challenge I faced in my earlier years as a musician was learning to play guitar and sing at the same time.
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I love to play folk music with fingerstyle guitar accompaniment. I love folk music because it is humble, soulful and it tells many stories.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am very proud of the original music I have released, any recordings or projects that I have had the honor to be a part of, and I am very proud of my progress as a guitarist.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My first music teacher in grade school inspired me to further my passion in music. I saw how passionate he was about teaching and playing music, and how it basically was his whole life. At a very young age, I knew that I wanted that for my life as well.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
When it comes to voice, I always had a natural talent for it. I have always loved to sing, and it is a huge part of my self expression. I learned guitar to be able to accompany my singing without needing anyone else to do it for me. I have always been Miss Independent that way. Later on, I began studying classical guitar to better my technique and skill, and that too became a very important part of my life, because it taught me structure and discipline.
When will I start to see results?
Results come with practice. If the student practices at least 30 minutes to 1 hour consistently every day, they should be able to see results in their progress within the first month.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child has a strong interest in music, and you see that they have come to a point where they can remain attentive for at least 30 minutes, then they are ready for a lesson.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
My strongest advice is to set a realistic goal for yourself every day, and keep a practice journal. In this journal, you can log the time in which you start your practice, how long it takes you to practice each exercise or piece, and any notes about your progress and what you wish to improve on. Also, if you are practice for more than one hour, remember to take breaks, as to not burn yourself out.
