Instruments: Cello
I was brought up classically trained on the Suzuki books but I am completely flexible. If you have or have heard of a set of books you like we can use that too. If you don't know how to read music we can focus part of the lesson on music theory and the rest on learning from recordings and playing by ear. Each genre has their own set of rules and depending on how strict those rules are I will be equally strict accordingly. Read More
Instruments: Violin Cello Viola
I began teaching in 2009, with private students. The following year, I began working with non-profit organization, for two years, that brought music to at-risk and underprivileged children. After working with them, I began working with the Baton Rouge Arts Council, bringing music and music appreciation to elementary school class rooms for children and schools that did not have a music teacher, on staff. I currently have a studio of private students, as well as students that I teach in a group. Read More
Instruments: Cello
I have been playing the Cello for about 9 years. I began in my home country of Chile when I was in the 2nd grade. My father is a composer and renown musician so music has been a part of my life since day one. I recently began a music career as an artist, as a result I now have music on iTunes, Google Play, Spotify, Pandora, Amazon and other music stores. Read More
Instruments: Guitar Cello Bass Guitar Double Bass
For bass guitar I use the Mel Bay Bass Guitar Method which takes a student from creating rocking bass lines to building kicking bass licks from chord changes.Double Bass students will have classical training, techniques to build a solid, warm tone, use of the bow, and orchestral repertoire, including solo pieces. For guitar I use the Mel Bay Chord Guide Method, which shows on easy to understand positions for chord playing. Read More
Instruments: Piano Cello Music
I have played cello for over 30 years. I've been teaching on and off since I graduated college, and consistently for the last ten years. I have performed and recorded with a variety of different groups in Southern California and Texas including the Claremont Symphony Orchestra in Claremont, California, the Point Loma Nazarene University Orchestra in San Diego, California, the Sinfonietta of Fort Worth in Texas, various independent solo artists and alternative bands.

Instruments: Piano Cello Music Keyboard
Every student has their own interest and learn with their own pace. I teach them based on what they need to learn and give them what they want to play. I pay attention to students' basic technique and postures as I believe that having a good basic foundation helps you build up your skill and will help you improve. It's important to develop a good practice habits. Always think and plan before practice, set a goal for each session. 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

What does a normal practice session look like for you?
Often it is different every day. A variety of vocal warm-ups are consistently a part of the rhythm I have developed. The song choice that I practice reflect what events might be coming up or what I still need to master.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
My degree is in Music and Worship Leadership. I never intended to teach in public schools or really to teach at all. I wanted simply to lead worship in the Christian Church. However, then I discovered that teaching is an indispensable part of worship leadership. Then I gradually discovered that I love to teach and to help others achieve the musical excellence that has been engraved in me!
Do you use specific teaching methods or books? (Ex: Alfred, Bastion, Suzuki, Hal Leonard) Why did you choose them if you did?
I create resources and/or find excellent free resources on the internet for students to use, resources that match the student's learning style and are FREE! Aren't you paying enough for lessons as it is?
Have any of your students won awards or been selected for special honors? How have they succeeded?
I am only just beginning in offering private lessons now that I have graduated, but my students have been very happy so far with the instruction I have given.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
I have a very hard time doing lead style guitar, such as solos and stuff. I have mastered rhythm guitar and am continuing to grow in it, but lead is far beyond what my fingers have been able to do
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
Starting and leading an independent band, Levi Square, which continues on to this day! Please see the links below for more information!

Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Guitar and voice are primary for me. Piano, in which I am self-taught is secondary. I also play ukulele, bass guitar, and almost any percussion except a full drum set. I can teach marching band technique as well.
When will I start to see results?
This is different for every different child, but it will usually take some time. It is worth the wait when you reach the result!
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I had several teachers along the way, and each inspired me in different ways. The chairman of LC's school of music inspired me to learn to lead well. My voice instructor taught me to learn better and to grow even when I think I am good enough. My theory professor taught me that when we teach we are also learning. My strings instructor encouraged me to start teaching when throughout college I never thought I could!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
How much interest are they showing in music? If the child repeatedly asks about it, they are showing that they want it!
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Dedication! Do not give up!
