I believe communication is of the upmost importance. I communicate with parents to let them know how the student is doing, what we are working on, and what to do next. As mentioned above, I tailor to my student's needs based on their understanding and pace. Some students move a little slower than others in certain areas, and some move faster. For example, one student of the same age may understand sheet music quickly, but have a hard time with scales. Read More
Instruments: Piano Organ
Piano: I enjoy the Alfred books as they explore the fundamentals of piano playing and provide tips for good habits. After having a good foundation for the fundamentals, I will move on to the Hanon book which explores technical exercises, scales, and arpeggios. Students will learn repertoire that will range from contemporary genres to classical genres. Organ: A piano background would be preferred. I like to start with the Davidson book and use Gleason for mastering the pedals. Read More
Instruments: Piano
My teaching style depends very much on what your goal is in deciding to learn to play piano. I can teach you how to play classical piano, piano improvisation, piano accompaniment, or how to play in a certain style with a musical group. Your goal as a student determines the approach we take. That being said, typically, I take a three pronged approach toward teaching: 1. Theory; teach the fundamentals of sight reading and music theory in small increments and apply them by creating custom musical exercises. 2. Read More
Instruments: Piano Keyboard
I relocated to New York City in 1992 to major in music at Hunter College. Living in NYC I began performing live and became a studio session musician in the process I developed songwriting and arranging skills as well as my own composing style. As I advanced musically I began teaching piano, guitar and music theory at the Academy of Music. Teaching the basics of piano really helped me develop a love for exploring and learning music with students . Read More
Instruments: Piano Guitar Voice
I think music making is the most appealing part of learning to play a new instrument. This is why I try to make every new concept Iteach as appealing and as fun as possible. For example, if in day one I am teaching two notes, I like to have as much fun with those two notes by making a song or a game out of them. In this way my students are able to engage in music and have fun while they are learning. Read More
Instruments: Flute Piccolo
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
While I enjoy playing classical music for its intricate compositions and technical challenges, my favorite genre is gospel. I love gospel music because it allows for a communal experience where we can all sing together and uplift each other through powerful messages. The joy and emotion in gospel music create a unique connection that makes every performance special!
If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
If I weren't a musician, I believe I would have pursued a career as a teacher or a counselor. I’ve always had a passion for helping others, and I still have a strong interest in teaching and counseling. Nevertheless, by giving lessons, I am also a teacher, and through making music together in my students' lives, I provide a form of counseling—not with words, but through rhythms and notes. I am actively seeking opportunities to learn more about these fields so I can further develop professionally and continue making a positive impact in people’s lives.
What does a normal practice session look like for you?
A normal practice session for me typically begins with a warm-up to get my fingers and breath working. I usually spend about 10-15 minutes on long tones and scales to build my sound and technique. After that, I focus on specific repertoire or pieces I’m currently preparing, breaking them down into sections to work on difficult passages. I like to incorporate a mix of classical and modern pieces, as this keeps my practice engaging and helps me explore different musical styles. Additionally, I spend some time improvising or playing along with backing tracks to develop my creativity and musicality. I always aim to reflect on my progress at the end of the session, making notes on areas to improve for next time. Overall, my practice sessions are structured yet flexible, allowing me to adapt based on my needs and goals.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
I hold a Master of Music degree in Flute Performance from Northwestern University and a Bachelor of Music degree in Flute Performance with a concentration in Music Education from the New England Conservatory of Music. I chose to pursue Performance because I have always been passionate about sharing music with others and expressing emotions through my playing. The artistry and technical skills involved in performance have always captivated me. Additionally, my concentration in Music Education reflects my commitment to teaching and inspiring the next generation of musicians. I believe that music has the power to connect people and transform lives, and I want to be a part of that journey for my students.
