Instruments: Cello
Every student is different and learns in different manners, which makes teaching a challenge. This is a challenge that motivates and excites me. I make sure to put all my effort into adapting to every student. Overall, I set reasonable goals for each student that are challenging, yet attainable. I believe in providing positive reinforcement while pushing a student to be better. Ultimately, my goal is to transfer my love for cello and music to the student and will always find a way to do so.

Instruments: Cello
I use the Suzuki method with all students, however, supplemental material is also used as the student ages and moves through the repertoire. As the student begins to explore their instrument and experiment with different styles, techniques, and repertoire I help guide the student along their musical journey and teach the student the necessary skills to successfully perform/play the piece. Perfection isn't necessary but a good grasp on the concepts and skills that are used across different pieces and applied to repertoire that is picked up in the future. Read More
Instruments: Cello
Each week at the end of their lesson, my students and I will sit down without the cello and discuss everything that they learned and everything that they need to work on for their next lesson. Together, we set small realistic goals and acknowledge accompishments with small rewards in order to nurture and embolden each student. I always encourage students to enter competitions, festivals, and other programs, as setting larger end goals can be the ultimate motivators! Read More
Instruments: Violin Cello Viola Double Bass
I taught the students from beginners to very advanced college students in traditional classic way. I taught big string classes and private lessons in different levels. I was assistant professor in University of Mississippi for ten years and taught applied cello and string Bass lessons. Many of my students went to further professional studies and started their music career. And also, I have many students who went to other majors in college but still keeping very active in the area of music, playing community orchestra, start their own private chamber music group, become very positive part of their community.

What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
My musical accomplishments have been winning various local competition ( I won my first competition at the age of 12), scholarship recipient for my Bachelor of Music (Partial) and a Full scholarship to the University of Michigan. While I was a student at CSUN I won the school competition and was to perform with a live orchestra as a representation of the school of music. As a graduate of CSUN I received the Margaret Aue Award for outstanding cellist.
In addition as a scholarship recipient at the University of Michigan I was placed in the student graduate quartet, where we performed all the composers new works and performed many concerts.
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I had a fabulous Elementary teacher that was able to teach all the instruments at El Marino School in Culver City. She is very knowledgeable and a great woman. To this day I always thank her for all she did for me. I worked with her for 2 years and then she told my parents that I needed private lessons at this point, I was 10 year old at this point. She is an inspiration to all the students who played under her conducting.
When will I start to see results?
Usually you start seeing results within a week. Realizing that the beginner (child or Adult) will learn at different pace. Some students catch on very quickly and move through the book at a good clip. Others need more time and develop a little slower. The important thing is to learn correctly and you will see results every week. Remember practicing is important here to see results.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
My standard for knowing a child is ready to start lessons is a few criteria. Can the student read. If so they can then read music because music is a language and it requires the understanding of reading in order to learn how to play. The student should be very interested in the instrument they want to learn, and try to visit some concerts so they may see their instrument being played by professionals. This way, they can see and hear their instrument in a live concert.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practicing is not fun......Yup you heard from me. However, practicing is important. Because without practicing students will not accomplish learning the instrument. Effective practice is a skill that must be learned and understood.
Practicing is not playing the piece assigned to them over and over again with the same mistake each time. This will not work very well. So if the student can identify the mistake, we isolate the problem and repeat the correct way several times so the mistake is finally corrected.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
My primary instrument is cello of which I have my degree in Cello Performance, with conducting was my second choice. I teach all levels of cello.
In addition, I acquired a great tool and I was taught by my brother who is a fabulous Violinist who is No. 5 in the world. I have the skills to teach beginning violin only.
