Instruments: Piano Trombone
For beginner piano students, I start from teaching out of the Piano Adventure Series, and Theory Time books. The Piano Adventure Series is great because the song arrangements have tiered piano proficiency for beginner to intermediate players. After students work in these books, other repertoire can be added to perform for holidays and recitals. For trombone students, I first make sure my students make characteristic sounds and introduce music to meet their playing level. Read More
Instruments: Piano Violin Viola
I have been teaching violin and viola for the last six years. My main goal is to make sure that student is having a great time learning how to play an instrument while making sure the student understands good practice habits. I want to make sure that the student has fun in their lessons and I make it my main priority. If the student wants to learn jazz, I am well versed in jazz and can teach jazz. Read More
Instruments: Piano
At an early age, I knew music was what I wanted to do with my life, and how I knew I would be able to touch people. My teaching experience goes back to my second year at my university and I fell in love with teaching after the very first lesson. In a never dull, quick paced setting, that accentuates each individual student's needs, I hope to never leave you bored, yet eager for the next session. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Trumpet Trombone Bass Guitar Music Keyboard Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
After that I received a bachelors degree in Jazz Studies from the University of North Texas and then a masters degree in trumpet performance from the University of Texas at Arlington. I keep a busy schedule as a freelance musician and perform regularly with the Dallas Jazz Orchestra. I also do the occasional the tour with different groups. One of the highlights of my career so far has been headlining with The Polyphonic Spree at the Marvin Festival in Mexico City in 2016! Read More
Instruments: Piano Saxophone Clarinet
I've been teaching in the university for 16 years, along with the students fromkindergarten to adults, leading a clarinet ensemble, performing throughout Taiwan andChina, accompanying vocals in the competitions, playing piano in the church, arranging music, publishing and recording CDsfor voice, instruments, and piano. I have been teaching at Frisco, Allen, Lovejoy, Little Elm, Carrollton ISDs, and the area. The students gain the honor of All-State, All-Area, All-Region, and many achievements on Solo and Ensemble Competitions. Read More
Instruments: Piano Organ
I am a recent graduate from the University of North Texas where I obtained a masters degree in organ performance. I am currently a church organist and have been playing the organ since the age of 16 and piano since the age of 12. I have had many performance opportunities both as a pianist and as an organist performing as a soloist and as a collaborator. I have a BM in music education and have had experience teaching students of all ages in voice, piano, and organ. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Synthesizer Ukulele Electric Guitar Classical Guitar Acoustic Guitar
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
For beginning students I use the Mel Bay Guitar Method. Mel Bay books have provided reliable teaching methods for many decades. They are clearly written and easy to follow. I find these books helpful in building a strong foundation for growing a young student's technical proficiency. They are written in standard notation which improves sight-reading and helps train the student's ear. I will supplement the Mel Bay Method with popular songs the student is interested in. The goal is to get the student performing the songs he/she wants to play while building fundementals adaptable to all styles of music.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
The hardest thing to master on the instrument is musicality and instinct. They are difficult things to teach. You can play the right notes but why does Hendrix sound like he does playing the very same notes on the same instrument? Listening properly is not an easy thing for a student to understand. It's more than playing the right notes within the correct tempo. It's all the space in-between the notes. It's all the time in-between the beats. Touch, feel and grace are very difficult things to accomplish on an instrument. Mastering the instrument requires focus, dedication and time.
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I have had students go on to major in music in college - including at the Berklee School of Music in Boston. I've had a student graduate with a Masters degree from Webster University. Many of my students have formed bands and performed live while also writing and recording their own songs. One of my students signed a major record contract with his band and toured the country. Others have accomplished smaller goals which brought them just as much joy. Becoming accomplished guitarists who can comfortably perform their favorite songs.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most proud of writing my own songs and producing my own records. They represent my stories. My take on life. Having the opportunity to travel and perform these songs live is something I'm so grateful for. Seeing people at a concert reacting to something I've recorded or seeing people react online to something I've written is touching. Traveling the world to play music is something I'm very proud of. I'm also proud to live and work in Nashville. It's an honor to be a part of this music community - to be a part of recording sessions with the greatest musicians and producers on the planet.
