Instruments: Flute Clarinet
When it comes to my teaching style, it is important for the student to learn at their own pace. I will set goals for my students based off of how he or she learns so that they can progress in a way that is comfortable for them. I will never push the student to where he or she is uncomfortable and become discouraged and lose interest. I also encourage the students to ask any questions that they have and that should never feel embarrassed about their questions. Read More
Instruments: Flute Piccolo
I started playing the flute in 2010, and the piccolo a little bit after that. In 2013 I started performing through international competitions, and received my diploma in musical performance through ABRSM in 2016, certifying me to teach. I recently graduated from Princeton University and performed while there in orchestra and pit orchestra groups. I grew up in Singapore and really enjoyed performing at venues like the National Gallery while there, and also was honored to perform at Weill Recital Hall in Carnegie Hall in NYC in 2016. Read More

I have been teaching since college, where I frequently filled in as a substitute for private and group lessons and offered coaching to other music students who were pursuing flute as a secondary instrument. I then taught several students at several middle schools during my time in Texas for my master's. Now, I hold a private studio for private lessons in person and over Zoom. I love teaching and encourage my students to both develop discipline and great practice habits as well as have fun and pursue their individual interests on the instrument. Read More

I begain teaching as a band assistant in college. I would lead sectionals and work with students who where struggiling one on one. As I gained experiance my role and responsibly grew and I began to run rehearsals and plan for concerts. One aspect of lessons that I emphasise is musicality. Often I will ask my students to listen to the song that they are working on or watch the movie or tv show it comes from because it is important to hear and see the bigger picture. Read More
Instruments: Piano Flute Recorder Piccolo
During lessons, I often compare concepts to other activities my students know and love - their favorite sport, video games, or books. I love sharing my magic tricks - shortcut exercises to make tricky passages instantly easier, and youll definitely catch me encouraging my students to listen, listen, listen! Every genre of music has something different you can learn and it adds to your own creative toolkit. I expect students to practice regularly and thoughtfully - seeking to play their very best and working to improve every time they pick up their instrument. Read More
Instruments: Trumpet Trombone Saxophone Flute Clarinet
From 1981-1993, I was the music director for URCS, a private school in Long Island, NY. I developed pedagogy and taught the high school band and choir. Since 1985, I have taught private lessons. Many of my students have gone on to be professionals in the industry. I absolutely love seeing my students click with understanding on their faces when they get the next piece of the puzzle they may have been missing regarding their playing. Read More
Instruments: Voice
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
This is definitely one of the top questions I get from parents. If your child is consistently showing the desire to either sing or play an instrument, then it’s probably a good time to introduce them to a coach. By consistently, I mean for more than a couple of months. Children are fickle so you want to be patient to see if there is a persistence with their passion for a specific instrument.
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
I have been asked this question many times, and my answer is always the same, I didn’t choose my instrument, it chose me! I started singing at a very early age. My mom was the first one to notice my affinity for music and singing when I was five years old. One day while riding with her in our car, I started singing a song on the radio, and then started singing the harmony parts to the chorus. She immediately stopped the car, turned down the radio and asked me to sing a song with her. I can’t remember which one it was, but she then asked me to sing the harmony with her and I did. From that moment forward, she lovingly cultivated my passion for singing and the rest is history!
When will I start to see results?
You will start to see results after the very first vocal lesson guaranteed. The method that I coach is nothing short of incredible. It made me a more powerful, controlled, dynamic and conditioned vocalist, and it will do the very same thing for you!
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
The advice I give all of my students for practicing effectively is One: Make sure you are practicing at least five days a week and optimally around the same time each day for scheduling consistency. Two: Always rest between exercises. Just like in the gym, give your muscles a chance to relax, and your brain a chance to allow the scope of the exercise to sink in between reps. 30 seconds is plenty of time between exercises. Three: Always start with a reasonable amount of time spent on each exercise before moving to the next. I have found that five minutes per exercise with 30 second rests in between is plenty to start with. As you become more comfortable and confident with the exercises, you can start adding time to each one for conditioning. Four: never let passion override your reason. Always be present in the moment to realize when your muscles are becoming fatigued. Each practice session will have an inflection point. Simply stop when you become overly tired.
