Instruments: Piano Voice
My teaching style is relaxed and encouraging. I find students typically do best in an environment where they feel comfortable and safe. I like to get to know each student's individual learning style and goals and then construct my lessons based on that. I enjoy every level of instruction, from playing early music reading games with 3 year olds, to helping high school students prepare for college music auditions, to helping adults become more confident at karaoke night. .....................................

Instruments: Piano Cello Music
For all my cello students, I start with 170 Foundation Studies and a modified Suzuki Method (Cello). Once my students reach Suzuki book 4, then they can start playing Bach Suites, and other intermediate repertoir. The Bach Suites, however, are what most of my cello students are interested in learning. For piano students, I use the Bastien piano series by Neil Kjos. I want my students to be interested and engaged, and coach them through basics while also trying to find pieces or genres they want to play. Read More
Instruments: Piano Voice Cello Bass Guitar Keyboard
My fellow students enjoyed having me in charge because I made sure that they did not feel inferior. I was honestly just helping them by sharing my knowledge of music. And we all saw vast improvement. Upon graduating I auditioned for the Dallas Opera, but however was not accepted due to my lack of experience. I have had experience however in helping out with some local plays, musicals, or performances. Read More
Instruments: Piano Cello Music Keyboard
I believe in meeting students where they are and catering lessons to their specific learning styles. Not everyone learns everything in the exact same way. While I do teach using standard, classical repertoire more often than not, my goal as a teacher is to help my students develop a deep love and passion for music; hence, I often find it incredibly helpful to branch out into other genres! I've taught show tunes, pop, rock, and even video game music to my students. Read More

Instruments: Piano Acoustic Guitar
Each student learns at their own pace, therefore goals are set individually for each student. Students need to have a passion for learning music, therefore I try to create a fun, patient environment in order for children to learn. I believe in setting goals and acknowledging when an accomplishment is made to reinforce the desire to learn. Regular practice is encouraged and incentivized if needed because practice is a necessary habit in learning and furthering development. Read More
Instruments: Piano
I have been teaching piano and music theory since 1984. I worked with children between the age 6 and 18 years. My students are also encouraged to have recitals at the end of the year. I organize activities such as concert, performance, and exams. I use my pedagogical skills to achieve the best education for students in my classes. Read More

Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
My own father handed me a guitar when I was 8 years old and taught me my first chords -- this set me up for a lifetime of passionate musicianship and music study. I appreciated the fact that my father never pushed me, but only taught me what I wanted and needed to learn at the time. I have taken this principle with me into my own instruction style, where I guide the student based on their own personal interests and passions, never trying to force anything that they don't honestly care about.
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
I am most proud of the hundreds of compositions I've written, many of which haven't been recorded, many of which have -- when listening to them, I realize how important my childhood musical instruction was to my future as a player -- all of the chord voicings and musical styles I learned have come into play as I've traveled along this journey as a composer and performer. It makes me proud to know that I've shaped so many experiences with my abilities!
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I chose guitar as my primary instrument because it feels very intimate to me, the way I can hold it in my lap and in my arms, and I can feel it resonating on my tummy as the strings buzz while I play -- it's a very deep connection! Also, it's easy to travel with, I can usually take a guitar anywhere, which is great because I never know when there's going to be an opportunity for me to play!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child shows any interest in music, a particular musical instrument, or explicitly states that they want to learn, it is time for them to start! It's easy for a child to pick up an instrument, as their brains are still in a period of extraordinary expansion and development -- learning an instrument will help them not only become musicians, but will also teach them the essential virtues of patience, practice, and commitment, setting them up for a more successful adulthood!
When will I start to see results?
Results depend on how often a student practices -- if they don't practice, you may never see results. However, if they practice for at least a half an hour every day, results can start to be seen within a week or two! This development can be extremely exciting for a new student and their loved ones, as the fruit of their labor will show in amazing and inspiring ways, which will make them want to continue to learn and grow!
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
To practice effectively, I believe musicians must set a daily practice schedule, whether it is 30 minutes or 4 hours -- this daily commitment will greatly improve results, growth and fluency on our instrument. I also believe practice must involve rudiments (practicing chord structures, scales, etc.), but also must be balanced a period of "freestyle" playing, where we allow our imaginations to guide us freely; this deepens our intimacy with the instrument and develops our own personal style!
