Instruments: Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Clarinet Euphonium French Horn Tuba
I like to first access the student and their proficiency level. Once I discover your weak points I focus on them and drill them to perfection. Once we have those down. Of course it takes much practice on your part at home alone, then we can move onto actual music and integrating all the skills you learned naturally into harmonious music.--There is no set way to my teaching style because every student is different and must be addressed with their own distinct methods and styles of learning. -I do not teach in the way schools teach their subjects such as history or math. -I learn the student before I can teach the student based off how they live, interact, and learn.

Nothing is more rewarding than seeing one of my students develop a passion for music! Therefore, it's important that each student progresses at his or her own pace. I encourage this by setting realistic goals for my students at each lesson. Acknowledging accomplishments helps fuel a students desire to progress, and makes students eager to learn more. By trying to find out what inspires the student, I can successfully tailor my instruction to their wants and needs. Read More
Instruments: Piano Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet Drums Bass Guitar Ukulele Mallet Percussion Orchestral Percussion
I believe in the philosophy of and empty cup. My lessons are not built for me to tell the student what to do, but rather learn how they learn and research the best practices for reaching that student. There is no "cookie cutter" method that works for all students, because everyone learns and comprehends a little bit differently. I remain sensitive to that and patient with my students. It always gets me when a student that is stuck on a part of their music finally understands and performs the passage perfectly. Read More
Instruments: Saxophone Flute Clarinet
For students, if any caliber, I start by teaching fundamentals. Fundamentals make it possible to enjoy playing the instrument. This includes things like scales, breathing exercises, warmups. After that I then will begin teaching skills. Often times, when playing an instrument, one skill is made up of multiple skills. I like to focus on the smaller skills and fine tune them so students can grow on their instruments. Then, based on the students preferred style, I like to give song recommendations and then begin to work on the style. Read More

If you weren't a musician what do you think you'd be doing instead?
I would be a writer or psychologist. I enjoy writing very much, mostly in Spanish my mother tongue. Also, I am passionate about the mind and the understanding of human behavior and the like.
When will I start to see results?
You will notice the difference a few minutes after we start the first lesson. In my class, I always ask the students to try several options, and then I encourage them to analyze the results.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
It was love at "first hearing". I was an 8-years old girl waiting for her mother to pick her up at the school of music. I haven't chosen an instrument yet and only attended to the music theory class. But one day I heard a guy playing this instrument, the clarinet. I fell in love immediately!
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
The 57 ARD Music Competition Munich (2008) has been one of the greatest experiences of my life! I was in my twenties, and I still lived in Venezuela, my homeland. It was an honor and great privilege to qualify for this international contest as a Latin American and Venezuelan. Which was even more special after the first round when I was told "miss Borregales, you passed to the second round, congratulations!"
What is your favorite style/genre of music to play and why?
I am a music lover. Thus, there is no room for having any favorite style or genre. Similar to food, when there is coherence and a good proportion of the elements then you find harmony, beauty, good taste and so on. In the case of music, I strongly believe that we need to be open-minded to understand the different contexts and paradigms found in music history through time.
If you have a Music Degree, what is it in (Performance, Education, Musicology, Theory, Composition, etc) and why did you choose that degree?
My music degree is in Performance. I have had great experiences as a performer in different formats including orchestra, chamber music and solo. I love to be on stage!
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Make pauses, these are fundamentals in any performance practice. We must take care of our body and mind. We are a very special type of athletes.
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Sound concept! It is important to have a reference and create your own sound from there. Although you might change this in the future, you need to start from something. So, my advice is that you must listen to as many recordings as you can, attend to live performances, and try to identify what do you like and why, you need to describe it. That way you start creating a concept.
