Instruments: Piano Voice Saxophone Flute Recorder Piccolo Music Keyboard

I began teaching privately in the greater Milwaukee area in 2012. With my help and motivation, a fifth grader decided to keep his flute and play in his beginning band, despite his families' circumstances. Later, I picked up an interested eighth grader, who eventually received a Gold at regional solo contest and also made the all-state band. Motivation, "keeping it real", and an upbeat attitude have continued to yield personal and academic results in my studio. Read More

First of all, I am someone who took formal private lessons for drums and flute from 5th grade all the way through college. I have been at School of Rock for about a year, where I am responsible for many individual as well as group lessons. I have taught a wide variety of ages ranging from 5-23, and I am extremely open to adult lessons. I am a firm believer that it's never too late to learn and that adults are more able to appreciate musical accomplishments. Read More

For adults, I like to have an idea of their goals and what they are hoping to take out of their lessons. Read More

For begining student I typically start with a book called Essential Elements.

This then allows me to plan a custom learning experience that best suits them and what they're looking to gain from the experience. Read More

Personally, I considered that teaching and transmitting knowledge are some of the tools that artists use as a means of expression. For this reason I have developed a tremendous interest in teaching, but at the same time an immense curiosity that allows me to provide the best solutions to the questions that students may have. As a teacher, I have had the opportunity to work in various educational institutions internationally, both in private and public institutions. Read More

Although it is my responsibility to teach fundamentals of playing the instrument and reading music correctly, I spend as much time as I can on not becoming enslaved to the printed page. In other words, once a student begins to play at a higher level, I introduce how to express oneself and the music in an aesthetically satisfying manner. Breaking down the barriers caused by musical notation and enabling an individual to express themselves musically and with proper phrasing and sensitivity is my primary goal. Read More
