Instruments: Piano Music Keyboard Djembe
I believe the most important aspect of learning an instrument is enjoying it! Taking up a new instrument can be very enjoyable, but it is also a long-term commitment. The goal for the studio is to produce life-long musicians that will come to cherish and appreciate music and find joy in playing an instrument. My love for teaching is displayed through my commitment to each and every student, giving them the knowledge that they need in order to succeed. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Cello Drums Bass Guitar Ukulele Mandolin Double Bass Music Keyboard Djembe
I recorded my first solo album titled Just a Bass and won NMHS Battle of the Bands again my senior year. For my senior project I composed, rehearsed and performed my first Concerto for Cello and Orchestra and went on to study Double Bass performance at the San Francisco Conservatory of Music where I received my B.M. I have played in many master classes with some of the worlds greatest musicians including Yo-Yo Ma, Edgar Meyer, Victor Wooten, Emanuel Ax and others. Read More
Instruments: Piano Organ Synthesizer
I've been playing keyboards since the age of ten. I graduated from Arizona State University where I studied music theory and composition. I have a special passion for composing music, and finished 3rd place nationally in the Music Teacher's National Composition Competition in 1987. As a professional musician, I've toured with The Fortunes, and performed with The Coasters and Ritchie Havens. I have just completed my third CD, titled Jazzed Up. I enjoy performing and teaching all styles of music including, classical, jazz, and pop, and love sharing my passion of music with my students. I believe that music instruction should not only be educational, but also enjoyable, exciting and rewarding. Read More
Instruments: Piano
The most important thing for me is to see my students could find their favorite pieces and develop a passion for music, that's the basis for them to progress at their pace. Also, I will help to set up weekly goals for my students, to encourage them to arrange their practice. So during that process, they will recognize the importance of accomplishments and encouragements to keep their passion for music, to desire to learn more and make more progress on the path. Read More

I am dedicated, persistent, and reliable. I am willing to learn and keep learning for the advancement of myself and my students. A well-rounded appreciation for music as well as critical listening and ear-training skills will be taught. I also maintain a pretty fast paced lesson, enabling the student to have plenty of practice material, technique studies, and goals to meet. I will record the student's progress electronically so that the student may better understand and learn from their lessons. I will inspire my student’s, positively influencing and encouraging them along our journey of musical discovery. Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice Trumpet Trombone Clarinet Synthesizer Ukulele Recorder Euphonium Keyboard Acoustic Guitar
For beginning students depending on the instrument of choice, I use: (In no particular order) Standard of Excellence for Band Instruments, consistent with school best practice methods Piano Adventures by Nancy and Randall Faber, for consistency and technique development as well as decent solo repertoire for recitals Hal Leonard's Complete Guitar Course or Alfred, both are good sources. Rainbow Ukulele for younger students in elementary school plus a combination of supplemental materials I've gathered over the years. Read More

I am a multiple woodwind performer and an educator with a strong European background in music theory, aural skills, and music history. I hold BM and MM in saxophone performance and recently graduated with my second MM in multiple woodwind performance and pedagogy. I am a very passionate teacher with years of experienced. I also stay active as a performer which I believe is a very important aspect of a good pedagogue. Read More
Instruments: Cello
When will I start to see results?
Results happen very gradually over a long period of time. Sometimes, since we hear ourselves play everyday when practicing, it's difficult to notice improvement over a long period of time, because the progress is so gradual. Because of this, I recommend that the student record a video of themselves playing every once in a while. If you practice consistently over a long period of time, you might be shocked at how much progress you've made when you look back at your videos from the past.
That being said, I think most students can start seeing significant improvements in their playing within 2-3 months! Of course, progress in entirely dependent on practicing effectively, very consistently, over a long period of time. You can see results even sooner if you are motivated to practice really hard.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If your child enjoys playing their instrument and wants to improve, they are ready to start lessons in my opinion. Good practicing and improvement comes when one applies the knowledge they have learned into their playing, and private lessons are the absolute best way to do this. Also, building good technical habits from the beginning is so crucial, and having a private teacher to keep checking on and adjusting the students technique can be so incredibly helpful. Because of this, I believe one should begin lessons as soon as there is a clear motivation to improve, as private lessons are the best way to achieve that improvement.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practice slowly! That's the best piece of advice I have for practicing effectively. Slow practice allows you to focus on the detail of everything you do, from how your bow is working, to left hand intonation, tone production, articulation and more- slow practice enables you to zoom in and work on much more detail than you could at a faster tempo. And slow practice doesn't have to be boring! In fact, I'm a firm believer that practice should never be boring. Slow practice is a chance to explore music up close in personal, and you get to really decide what you want to say with a piece. I also believe that experimentation is so crucial to make good progress in the practice room. You have to try things you haven't tried before every day, always trying to push your limits. You never know if something works for you or not if you haven't tried it, and cello playing is so depende
