Instruments: Saxophone Flute
My teaching method is tailored to the desired goal of the student. I commonly employ classical fundamentals, which provide the student with tools needed to play the instrument. These fundamentals include: long-tones (for tone production), scales (for technique), overtone series (for the low/high range of the instrument) and reading music. From here, each lesson is modified to the particular student's goals, whether that is improvisation, playing jazz, performing classical literature, exploring experimental music, etc. Read More

Hello! My name is Freddy, and I am a professional trombonist and composer from New York City. To tell you a bit about myself, I graduated Berklee College of Music with a Master's in Film Scoring ('15). I also recently finished touring with Grammy award winning artist Alejandro Sanz, and am currently working at SkyMuse Studios in Seattle, WA, under the tutelage of Ron Jones (Family Guy, Star Trek: Next Generation, DuckTales).

I began teaching as a supervised and mentored Guided Practice Teacher, helping students learn to practice and become their own teacher. After a few years of that, I was deemed "Ready To Teach" by my supervisors and mentors. Today, my students have excelled in their Flute Performance degrees at top universities, placed in regional and national competitions and auditions, and developed a life-long love of music. Having studied with some of the world's best flutists and teachers, I have the tips, tricks, and tactics to make sure you learn quickly and properly, while still having fun! Read More

Instruments: Flute
For all of my students, I stress the importance of fundamentals, and I use various etude studies and the works of Marcel Moyse to develop this. To further complement the development of fundamentals and to encourage stylistic choices in musical expression and phrasing, music theory, music history, and ear training skills will be incorporated into lessons. In addition, a portion of each lesson will be spent sight reading duets, which encourages sight reading skills and allows students to become accustomed to a more advanced level of playing. Read More

What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Writing down your schedule out (proven for me at least). Practicing your weakest area of playing first. I have also noticed that the most effective way to get the most out of your practice time is to completely focus on the task at hand. That means no social media, television, or other distractions that happens to all musicians. On top of having no distractions, another way of practicing effectively is to practice consistently and do it everyday. I believe the more daily a musician practices, the better results he/she gets. By that I mean it is better to practice everyday for an hour, rather than practicing 3-4 hours a day every other day or two. To summarize, the best advice I have for effective practice is: writing out your practice schedule, focusing first on your weakest areas, cutting out all forms of distractions, and of course, practicing everyday for a hour or less, rather than cramming three days out of the week.
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
If the child is wanting to improve his or her skills, can be focused for 10 minutes at a time, I believe the student is ready to start lessons. Your child must want and have the desire to be taking lessons. In my opinion, the desire for music lessons must come from the student, not the parents. I have seen too much from my other friends and while I was tutoring, that many children are forced into taking after school tutoring/music lessons. A child must be completely obsessed with music and must be willing to pay attention and focus at practicing and honing their skills to improve everyday. If a child shows these traits, then I believe they will be ready to start lessons.
When will I start to see results?
It depends on the ability and effort on the student. I will provide the fundamental foundation (scales, sight reading, techniques, music library, sight syncopated rhythms) to a student so they can improve at their skills. I will do my best to explain to the student why it is important to practice these difficult skills/passages/rhythms. I will do my best to ensure I give the necessary tools to all of my students so they can improve as musicians. IF the student sits down, and practices everything I hand at them, parents can expect to see results in about a week or so. The more determined a student is, the faster he/she will improve.
