Instruments: Piano Bass Guitar

I use methods I learned from my studies at CSULA and my personal experience over the years and learning various instruments and rehearing and performing with people from different age groups.

When it comes to kids I am more about the basics and literal but with older kids and adults it is different because we understand feel and groove and dynamics which translates to different words.

I am a very big proponent of adaptable teaching, specifically adjusting to the students, wants, needs and goals. I love teaching students what THEY want to learn, and applying my knowledge of music theory and instrument theory in a fun and applicable way to their interests, thereby making music theory less of a snore and chore, while also getting the students excited for more. I love highlighting students excellence and seeing the joy of finally nailing something they've practiced, but even more so I love working through aspects that are particularly challenging for a student, as the reward is even greater after doing so.

We learn the music you want to learn when you study with me! The very first lesson I ask the student what he or she is inspired by. We then work towards those songs, in a step by step gradual process.

This makes the lessons moreenjoyable and relatableto the student's deisred outcomes. Read More

This is important to understand because often times, its the strongest factor and motivator most people have when starting to pursue music. Read More
