Instruments: Guitar Electric Guitar Acoustic Guitar
My teaching began back in his high school day as a Math/English tutor based on the recommendation of his teacher, which later greatly aided me in my now decade long music teaching career. Music is a very personal development, thus I greatly emphasize in establishing connection between teacher and student as well as an understanding of learning approach the student is inclined to. In addition, becoming a manager of a music school helped me immerse in the music education community. Read More

Finally, I go more into what it is they're hoping to get out of their playing and help them go further in discovering that direction Drums - Similar to guitar, work on form and how to hold the sticks first. It's important to get them comfortable with playing loud and clear, sometimes the drums are a bit intimidating with their massive volume. (Unless you're on an e-kit). Next, as with any good drummer is establishing a comfortable sense of rhythm and time. Read More

In my classical guitar teaching, I take a highly individualized and structured approach, tailored to the students age, experience, and goals. For beginners, I focus on establishing a solid foundation in technique, reading, and musical understanding. This includes proper hand positioning, finger independence, and basic posture, often using exercises from Aaron Shearers Classic Guitar Technique and early studies by Carcassi and Sor. I supplement these with simple repertoire to develop both reading skills and musicality. Read More

My methods as a teacher are very vast. I have taught many people and my success in teaching is unrivaled. I am able to make my students change direction, focus, get back on track, use a tangent to further a topic and much more. I think most music teachers focus on the music and not enough on their abilities to teach. I have been a preschool teacher and filled various other educational roles. Read More
Instruments: Guitar
One of the most popular instruments of our today musical world is guitar but it is not an easy instrument to play at the advance level. I actively taught classical guitar in some of the top music institutes in Spain from 2005 to 2014 up until relocating to California. I have learned through experience that many students have difficulty getting started with effective practicing. I have made this my essential goal to help them be more motivated towards this task.

I am a firm believer that the right teacher will save you years of time and money. My style is geared towards helping you establish a practice routine and a relationship with music that fulfills you during your entire music journey. For young students, I focus on building a healthy relationship with practice and learning that crosses over into all areas of study. I believe learning is great privilege and should be exciting!

Does music run in your family? Tell us a little about your musical family members.
Yes. Dad is a guitar player, sister sings & plays the flute. We've all been involved in musical theater, often together.
When did you decide to become a professional musician? Was it a gradual decision or was there a defining moment for you?
Of course there was a calling all along, but it was the realization that I could make money from playing. It's something that I love doing and sharing, but at the end of the day- there's nothing unartistic about making money! Who wouldn't want to make a living doing what they love?!
Did you have a teacher that inspired you to go into music? How did they inspire you?
I had three fantastic teachers growing up, each of them led me down a creative and passionate path and were fantastic role models to look up to. It's important to have a mentor!
Why did you choose your primary instrument?
Music was a big part of my life since I was a wee lad- earliest memories involve my dad (a guitar player himself) playing me Abbey Road by the Beatles and Layla & Other Assorted Love Songs by Derek & the Dominoes. After seeing footage of Ringo, that was it!
What musical accomplishments are you most proud of?
In no particular order:
-being a paid musician since 14
-graduating from music school in 2007
-the ability to establish oneself and find work in music after a move (SE Michigan, Los Angeles, Austin, greater NY area, etc)
And for something much more specific: I recall filling in for a top 40 band in Santa Monica, CA. At our set break, one of the band members came up to me to exclaim at how much the crowd was dancing, and that they never would dance with their regular drummer. Getting people up and dancing? That's what it's all about!
What do you think is the hardest thing to master on your instrument?
Discipline and restraint!
How do I know if my child is ready to start lessons?
Hitting pots and pans? Singing along to music? Is in need of a creative outlet? Really, it's all of the above! If there's any interest in the arts at all, we should be fostering that!
When will I start to see results?
Depends on the student and their interests/work ethic. Important to remember that everybody learns and processes information differently, and music is in no way a competition so comparisons to other musicians/students are unwarranted.
What advice do you have about practicing effectively?
Practice does not equal perfection! If you're lucky, practice will make you better than you were before, and the most efficient method is simply pick a few specific things to work on and make a 'practice session road map'. Practicing a few things for a shorter amount of time will allow for more focus and intent instead pushing oneself in no direction for hours on end. It's also important to document what was practiced, what progress was made, and what to focus on for the next session.
