Instruments: Piano Guitar Trumpet Saxophone Drums Mallet Percussion
I'm a firm believer in self motivation. Having a good teacher is important but having a great student is paramount. I love to develop concepts that work for the individual student whom I'm relaying ideas to. Whether it is theory or academia or the idea of honest expression, all these facets of teaching have always been inspiring to me. I can mock up many different playing situations to accommodate any level of player. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Trumpet Saxophone Flute Clarinet Bass Guitar Ukulele Music Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
My approach to music lessons is to customize and graft them to the student. I approach all of my private lessons as music lessons, not just guitar, saxophone, theory, composition, or piano lessons. Throughout my career, I have consistently found value in being a well-rounded, knowledgeable musician, strong in a variety of skills, instruments, and genres. This is not to say that I do not strive for mastery, and encourage my students to do the same. Read More

Music has been healing, a form of release, and my passion for many years. I did not go to school for music, however I was raised in an environment, with a mother who loved rock-n-roll, so she taught us how to dance, however both of my parents were musicians. I learned to play music much later in life from instructors, and self-taught. Once I got the bug, I took voice lessons as well, eventually I became a singer songwriter. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Cello Viola
I believe that every student has their own learning style and I strive to teach to the student. Therefore, every student is taught differently, according to what works for them, and how the student is comfortable being taught. Student's will learn at their own pace while being encouraged to go beyond what they believe they are capable. Students will be given playing opportunities in an annual rectial, and semi annual group performances. Read More
Instruments: Piano
From my childhood, I had a desire to take piano lessons. My parents were not able to provide the lessons so I delivered newspapers to pay for the tuition. The amount of income does not cover fully for the tuition but I never gave up. I sometimes practice on my own without lessons, I was able to play all hymn songs regardless key signatures so I was able to play as accompanist at church in age of 12 years old. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Viola Trumpet Recorder Fiddle
I like to start out beginning string students with Essential Elements 2000 by the Hal Leonard company. They have a complete system which includes professionally recorded accompaniments which provide a model for the student to hear how to play with good intonation, tone and rhythm which are the most important basics. In addition I recommend other sheet music with piano accompaniment or books with CD accompaniments that can be performed for friends and family. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin
Each student is different. At first I try to see what's their passion, how much farther they want to learn, what style would they prefer, and more things about their preferences. For the beginners it's very important to learn step by step. But at the same time I always find out a unique way to entertain by performing a peace for them, and/or play along with them or play an accompaniment for them. 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.
